Gibraltar LBT-101 Quick-release T-handle Pin 3/16 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBT-101 is a T-handle quick-release pin designed for fast, tool-free securing and removal of components in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and jigs. The pin features a 3/16 inch diameter and a 3/4 inch usable length, making it suited for compact clamping and alignment applications. Constructed from 4130 alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, it delivers solid corrosion resistance alongside reliable shear and tensile performance. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators install this type of pin where repeated assembly and disassembly cycles are required without the use of additional tools.

This pin is a common fit in light industrial equipment, machine guarding, tooling fixtures, and maintenance access panels. The T-handle design allows single-hand operation, which reduces service time in tight or repetitive assembly workflows. It is well suited for both production-floor tooling and field maintenance scenarios where quick component changeover is a priority.

Key Features

• T-handle design enables single-hand, tool-free pin insertion and removal
• 3/16 inch pin diameter for compact assembly and fixture applications
• 3/4 inch usable length provides positive engagement in standard panel and bracket stock
• 4130 alloy steel construction for reliable strength in mechanical applications
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in light industrial environments
• Inch measurement system for direct compatibility with standard inch-dimensioned tooling

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-service quick-release T-handle pin for use in inch-dimensioned mechanical fixtures, jigs, tooling, and light industrial equipment requiring 3/16 inch diameter pin hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal require no tools. Ensure the mating hole is clean and free of burrs before inserting the pin. Verify that the usable length is sufficient to fully engage both sides of the assembly before placing the assembly under load. Follow applicable machinery safety lockout procedures before servicing any equipment that uses this pin as a retention device.
