Gibraltar LBH-146 Quick-release Pin 1/2 in Ring Handle

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBH-146 is a ring-handle quick-release pin made from grade 4130 steel with a zinc-plated finish. The pin measures 0.5 inches in diameter with a 2.5-inch usable length, making it suited for secure, tool-free pin connections in mechanical assemblies and structural linkages. The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in light-duty service environments. This pin type is commonly installed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with removable clevis connections, jigs, fixtures, and equipment panels.

Quick-release ring-handle pins are used across a wide range of industrial and mechanical maintenance applications. They are a standard fastener choice for equipment that requires frequent disassembly or adjustment without tools. Typical install scenarios include agricultural equipment linkages, manufacturing jigs, structural brackets, and panel retention. The ring handle allows for rapid engagement and release by hand, reducing service time in repetitive-access assemblies.

Key Features

• Grade 4130 alloy steel construction for strength in dynamic load applications
• Zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance in light-duty environments
• Ring handle design allows tool-free insertion and removal
• 0.5-inch pin diameter with 2.5-inch usable length
• Inch-measurement system for compatibility with standard US hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series quick-release pin for clevis, bracket, and fixture applications requiring a 0.5-inch pin diameter and 2.5-inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Quick-release pins are installed and removed by hand without tools. Verify that the receiving holes are clean and sized correctly for a 0.5-inch pin diameter before installation. Inspect the pin and retaining ball mechanism for wear or deformation before each use in load-bearing applications. Follow applicable machinery safety standards and lockout/tagout procedures before servicing any assembly that uses this pin.
