Gibraltar LBH-117 Quick-release Pin 1/4 in Ring Handle

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBH-117 is a quick-release pin with a ring handle, designed for fast, tool-free insertion and removal in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, jigs, and industrial equipment. The pin measures 0.25 inches in diameter with a 3-inch usable length and is manufactured from 4130 alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. The ring handle allows single-hand operation, making it practical in production environments or field applications where frequent disassembly is required. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians regularly use quick-release pins to secure removable components or align assemblies during service.

This pin is suited for use in light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies requiring repeatable, secure positioning without fasteners. Typical applications include tooling fixtures, agricultural equipment linkages, material handling racks, and general machine guarding. The 0.25-inch diameter and 3-inch usable length make it appropriate for panels, arms, or brackets with moderate hole spacing. The zinc-plated 4130 steel construction provides adequate strength for standard industrial and shop environments.

Key Features

• Quick-release ring handle allows single-hand, tool-free pin removal
• 4130 alloy steel construction provides above-average tensile strength for the pin class
• Zinc-plated finish offers baseline corrosion protection in indoor and light-outdoor environments
• 0.25-inch pin diameter fits standard quarter-inch clevis and bracket holes
• 3-inch usable length accommodates moderate panel or bracket thickness

Compatibility

Designed as a standard quick-release pin for use in assemblies with a 0.25-inch diameter hole pattern. Verify hole diameter and required usable length against your assembly before installation.

Installation Notes

Install by aligning the pin with the mating holes in the assembly and pressing through until the detent engages. To remove, pull the ring handle to retract the detent and withdraw the pin. No tools are required for installation or removal under normal operating conditions. Always confirm the pin diameter and usable length are appropriate for the load and geometry of the application before placing the pin in service.
