Gibraltar LBH-147 Quick-release Pin 1/2 in Ring Handle

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBH-147 is a ring-handle quick-release pin designed for fast, tool-free removal in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and positioning applications. The pin features a 0.5-inch diameter and 3 inches of usable length, manufactured from 4130 alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. A spring-loaded ball-locking mechanism allows single-hand operation, making it a practical choice for setups that require frequent disassembly or adjustment. Maintenance technicians, machine operators, and fabricators are the typical end users for this hardware category.

This quick-release pin is suited for use in industrial machinery, tooling jigs, agricultural equipment, material handling fixtures, and structural assembly applications where repeated access points are needed. The ring handle allows for rapid extraction without tools, reducing downtime during routine maintenance or configuration changes. Its inch-system sizing fits standard imperial tooling and fixture designs.

Key Features

• Ring handle design allows tool-free, single-hand removal
• 0.5-inch pin diameter and 3-inch usable length for medium-duty fastening applications
• 4130 alloy steel construction for strength and durability
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in light-exposure environments
• Inch-system dimensions for compatibility with standard imperial fixtures and tooling

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-style quick-release pin for use in imperial-dimensioned fixtures, jigs, and mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.5-inch pin diameter and 3-inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — insert the pin through aligned holes in the assembly until the locking balls engage. Before servicing any machinery or fixture, de-energize and lock out the equipment per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify that hole diameter and material thickness are compatible with the pin diameter and usable length before installation. Do not use this pin in applications that exceed its rated load capacity or expose it to sustained chemical immersion without confirming finish compatibility.
