Gibraltar LBH-148 Quick-release Pin Ring Handle 4130 Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBH-148 is a quick-release pin with a ring handle, manufactured from 4130 alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish. The pin measures 0.5 inches in diameter with a 3.5-inch usable length, making it suitable for applications requiring fast, tool-free pin insertion and removal. The ring handle allows for one-handed operation, and the zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in light-duty service environments. This pin is installed and used by maintenance technicians, fabricators, and equipment assemblers working with machinery, jigs, fixtures, and structural assemblies.

The LBH-148 is used in industrial and commercial maintenance applications where quick disassembly is needed without threaded fasteners. Typical install scenarios include equipment panels, clevis connections, pin-retained linkages, and fixture setups in fabrication or assembly environments. The inch-system dimensions make it a standard fit for machinery and equipment designed to imperial specifications.

Key Features

• 0.5-inch pin diameter for a common imperial fastener size
• 3.5-inch usable length accommodates moderate material stack thickness
• 4130 alloy steel construction provides solid tensile strength for structural and mechanical applications
• Zinc-plated finish resists light corrosion and surface oxidation
• Ring handle enables tool-free, one-handed insertion and removal
• Quick-release mechanism reduces disassembly time on frequently serviced equipment

Compatibility

Designed as a standard imperial quick-release pin for use in machinery, jigs, fixtures, and equipment assemblies requiring a 0.5-inch diameter pin with a 3.5-inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal requires no tools due to the ring-handle quick-release design. Ensure the receiving hole diameter is properly sized and aligned before inserting the pin to avoid binding. Inspect the pin and locking mechanism for wear or deformation before each use, particularly in load-bearing or dynamic applications. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines and workplace safety standards when using fasteners in structural or mechanical assemblies.
