Gibraltar LBT-128 Quick-release Pin T-handle 5/16in 3.5in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBT-128 is a T-handle quick-release pin designed for rapid, tool-free securing and release of components in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and fabricated structures. The pin features a 5/16-inch diameter and a 3-1/2-inch usable length, giving it a practical fit across a wide range of light-duty to medium-duty fastening applications. Constructed from 4130 alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, it delivers solid corrosion resistance and the structural integrity expected in industrial and shop environments. The T-handle configuration allows single-hand operation without the need for tools, making it a reliable choice for applications that require repeated access or adjustment.

This quick-release pin is suited for use in industrial equipment, jigs, fixtures, safety guards, gates, and mechanical linkages where fast pin removal and reinsertion are required. It is commonly used by fabricators, maintenance technicians, and assembly line workers in manufacturing and heavy trade environments. The zinc-plated finish makes it appropriate for moderately exposed conditions where light corrosion protection is needed.

Key Features

• T-handle design allows tool-free, single-hand operation
• 5/16-inch pin diameter fits standard clevis and bracket applications
• 3-1/2-inch usable length accommodates a range of material thicknesses
• 4130 alloy steel construction provides reliable tensile and shear strength
• Zinc-plated finish offers corrosion resistance in general-use environments
• Inch measurement system for straightforward sizing in standard applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard quick-release pin replacement or upgrade for mechanical assemblies, fixtures, jigs, and equipment using a 5/16-inch pin diameter with a 3-1/2-inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by inserting the pin through aligned holes in mating components until the detent ball or locking feature engages. Before servicing or replacing the pin, ensure the assembly is de-energized and mechanically secured to prevent unintended movement. Verify hole diameter and alignment before insertion to avoid binding or damage to the pin body. No special tools are required for standard installation.
