Gibraltar LBT-146 Quick-release T-handle Pin 0.5 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBT-146 is a quick-release T-handle pin designed for fast, tool-free removal in industrial, mechanical, and fabrication applications. The pin features a 0.5 inch diameter and a 2.5 inch usable length, constructed from 4130 alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. The T-handle configuration allows single-hand operation, making it a practical choice for repeated assembly and disassembly on jigs, fixtures, guards, and adjustable equipment. Maintenance technicians, machine operators, and fabricators typically install and use this pin in production or shop environments where quick access is required.

This quick-release pin is suited for light industrial and mechanical applications requiring frequent component removal or positional adjustment. Common uses include securing hinged guards, indexing fixtures, locking adjustable arms, and retaining removable panels. The zinc-plated finish provides a measure of protection in shop environments with moderate moisture exposure. Packaged individually, it is sold as a single-unit item with no bulk quantity requirement.
