Gibraltar LBL-SS7123 Quick-release Pin 5/16 in 3 in Ss

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBL-SS7123 is a quick-release pin with an L-handle, designed for fast, tool-free insertion and removal in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and industrial equipment. The pin measures 5/16 inches in diameter with a 3-inch usable length, and is manufactured from 17-4 stainless steel with a bright finish for corrosion resistance. The L-handle configuration allows one-handed operation, making it practical in tight or repetitive-access applications. This type of fastener is commonly installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and mechanical assembly crews in both light and heavy industrial settings.

This quick-release pin is suited for use in jigs, fixtures, material handling equipment, and structural assemblies where a component must be secured and released frequently without tools. The 17-4 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with exposure to moisture, mild chemicals, or wash-down conditions. Its compact dimensions and bright finish also make it a practical choice for food-processing equipment frames, HVAC equipment panels, and similar applications requiring clean, durable fastening hardware.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct hardware addition for mechanical assemblies, industrial fixtures, and equipment panels requiring a 5/16-inch diameter quick-release pin with a 3-inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — insert the pin through aligned holes in the assembly and confirm the locking mechanism engages before placing the assembly under load. Verify the receiving hole diameter is matched to 5/16 inches to ensure proper fit and retention. Inspect the pin and locking ball or detent mechanism for wear or deformation during routine maintenance. Follow applicable machinery safety lockout and tagout procedures before removing or replacing quick-release pins on powered equipment.
