LG/LM – LOCKWELL® Quick Release Pins

Rugged designs in a variety of pin diameters, lengths, and construction materials satisfy a wide range of application requirements for locating, positioning, or retaining objects. All provide positive engagement with one-hand operation, making them a desirable alternative to nuts and bolts, cotter pins, or lynch pins.

• Robust construction delivers a high strength-to-weight ratio
• Single-acting pushbutton design makes use easier than basic interference-fit detent pins
• Push button to install or remove pin without resistance
• Spring loaded internal shaft re-engages detent balls for snug fit when button is released
• Multiple handle styles suit specific application needs – wide grip for gloved hand use, low profile head for minimal protrusion, recessed pushbutton for maximum protection against accidental disengagement
