Gibraltar LBT-132 Quick-release T-handle Pin 3/8 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBT-132 is a quick-release pin with a T-handle design, built for fast, tool-free insertion and removal in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and equipment linkages. The pin body is manufactured from 4130 alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. It measures 3/8 inch in diameter with 1 inch of usable length, making it well suited for light- to medium-duty applications where repeatable manual engagement and release are required. Weighing 0.113 pounds, it is compact and easy to handle in tight spaces. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this hardware type.

This pin fits residential and commercial mechanical applications where a retained fastener with quick manual operation is needed. Common use scenarios include jigs, fixtures, carts, guards, actuator linkages, and adjustable equipment frames. The T-handle grip allows one-handed operation without tools, reducing setup and changeover time on production floors, service bays, and maintenance environments. Sold individually in a package quantity of one.

Key Features

• T-handle design enables tool-free, one-handed quick release
• 4130 alloy steel construction for strength in mechanical applications
• Zinc-plated finish provides baseline corrosion protection
• 3/8 inch pin diameter with 1 inch usable length for compact fitment
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard imperial hardware
• Lightweight at 0.113 pounds for easy handling and minimal added assembly weight

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation quick-release pin for imperial-dimensioned mechanical assemblies, jigs, fixtures, and adjustable equipment requiring a 3/8 inch diameter retained pin with 1 inch of usable engagement length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, machinists, or fabricators working on mechanical assemblies. Ensure the mating hole diameter is properly sized for a 3/8 inch pin before installation. Verify that the pin is fully seated and the release mechanism is engaged before applying load to the assembly. Inspect the pin and detent mechanism periodically for wear or deformation in high-cycle applications.
