Gibraltar LBT-134 Quick-release T-handle Pin 3/8 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBT-134 is a quick-release pin with a T-handle design, built for fast, tool-free removal in mechanical assembly and maintenance applications. The pin measures 0.375 inches in diameter with a 1.5-inch usable length, making it well-suited for securing panels, linkages, gates, fixtures, and structural connections where repeated access is required. Constructed from 4130 alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, the LBT-134 delivers corrosion resistance alongside the strength expected from a higher-grade pin material. Maintenance technicians, fabricators, and industrial service professionals are the primary installers.

This quick-release pin is appropriate for residential, commercial, and light industrial applications where fast pin removal without tools is an operational requirement. Typical use cases include securing access panels, safety guards, hinged assemblies, and equipment linkages. The T-handle configuration allows single-hand operation, which is particularly useful in confined or awkward installation points. The inch-measurement system makes it a direct fit for standard imperial-dimension hardware applications.

Key Features

• T-handle design enables tool-free, single-hand quick release
• 0.375-inch pin diameter fits standard imperial pin-hole applications
• 1.5-inch usable length for common panel and linkage thicknesses
• 4130 alloy steel construction for above-average tensile strength
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in moderate-exposure environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard imperial quick-release T-handle pin for use in mechanical assemblies, fabricated fixtures, and equipment panels requiring a 0.375-inch pin diameter and 1.5-inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — insert the pin through aligned holes and the internal detent ball engages automatically to retain the pin. Before servicing or replacing quick-release pins on powered or pressurized equipment, de-energize the system and relieve any pressure or stored energy in accordance with applicable lockout/tagout procedures. Inspect the detent ball and spring mechanism for wear during each removal cycle. Do not substitute pins of a different diameter or grade in load-bearing applications without verifying the assembly specification.
