Gibraltar LBL-SS7156 Quick-release Pin 1/2 in 4 in Ss

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBL-SS7156 is an L-handle quick-release pin manufactured from 17-4 stainless steel with a bright finish. It features a 0.5 inch pin diameter and a 4 inch usable length, making it a compact, corrosion-resistant fastening solution for applications that require rapid pin removal without tools. The spring-loaded ball-detent mechanism locks the pin in position under load and releases with a pull of the L-handle. This pin is installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and industrial assembly professionals in equipment, jigs, fixtures, and machinery requiring frequent component changes or adjustments.

This quick-release pin is suited for industrial and commercial applications where repeated pin insertion and removal is part of normal operation. Typical uses include fixture alignment, gate latching, hinge pinning, and tooling changeover on production equipment. The 17-4 stainless steel construction provides strength and corrosion resistance in wash-down, outdoor, or moderately corrosive environments. The bright finish requires no additional surface treatment for standard service conditions.

Key Features

• 0.5 inch pin diameter with 4 inch usable length for secure through-hole engagement
• 17-4 stainless steel construction for high strength and corrosion resistance
• L-handle design allows tool-free, one-handed operation
• Bright finish provides clean appearance with no additional coating required
• Spring-loaded ball-detent retention holds pin securely under load until manually released

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit quick-release pin for industrial fixtures, jigs, gates, and machinery requiring a 0.5 inch diameter pin with 4 inches of usable engagement length in inch-measurement systems.

Installation Notes

Quick-release pins are installed and removed by hand without specialized tools. Ensure the receiving hole diameter is matched to the pin diameter before insertion to prevent binding or premature wear. Inspect the ball-detent mechanism and spring function before placing into service. Pins should not be used as a primary load-bearing shear fastener in structural applications unless the assembly is specifically rated for that use.
