Gibraltar LBL-SS7157 Quick-release Pin 1/2 in 17-4 Ss

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBL-SS7157 is an L-handle quick-release pin constructed from 17-4 stainless steel with a bright finish. It features a 0.5 inch pin diameter and a 4.5 inch usable length, making it suited for medium-duty fastening and positioning applications where rapid, tool-free pin removal is required. The 17-4 grade stainless steel provides corrosion resistance and strength in demanding service environments. This pin is installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and equipment fabricators wherever a secure but quickly removable connection point is needed in machinery, fixtures, or structural assemblies.

This quick-release pin is appropriate for industrial, commercial, and trade applications including equipment maintenance, jig and fixture setups, and panel or guard retention. The L-handle design allows for finger-grip removal without tools, which is useful in repetitive or time-sensitive service routines. It is sold individually and is compatible with through-hole applications sized for a 0.5 inch pin diameter.

Key Features

• 17-4 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and high strength
• 0.5 inch pin diameter for medium-duty through-hole applications
• 4.5 inch usable length accommodates substantial material thickness
• Bright finish provides a clean surface condition straight from the manufacturer
• L-handle allows tool-free insertion and removal in service conditions
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard fastener layouts

Compatibility

Designed for use in through-hole assemblies, fixtures, and equipment requiring a 0.5 inch quick-release pin with an L-handle configuration. Verify hole clearance and grip length requirements against your specific application before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — insert the pin through aligned holes and engage the release mechanism to secure. Before servicing equipment, de-energize machinery and follow applicable lockout/tagout procedures per OSHA and facility safety standards. Confirm the usable length is sufficient to pass fully through the assembly with the retaining ball or detent fully engaged on the exit side. Do not use this pin in applications where load ratings or shear values have not been independently verified against the pin specifications.
