Gibraltar LBT-152 Quick-release T-handle Pin 0.5 in 6 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBT-152 is a quick-release pin with a T-handle, designed for fast, tool-free insertion and removal in mechanical assemblies, jigs, fixtures, and equipment mounting applications. The pin body is machined from 4130 alloy steel and finished with a zinc-plated coating for corrosion resistance. It measures 0.5 inches in diameter with 6 inches of usable length, making it suitable for moderate-load locking and positioning tasks. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians use this type of pin wherever rapid disassembly or adjustable positioning is required without threaded fasteners.

This pin is suited for use in industrial equipment, tooling setups, agricultural machinery, and general mechanical assemblies where a secure but removable connection is needed. The T-handle provides a positive grip for hand operation without tools, speeding up changeovers and adjustments on production fixtures, safety guards, and hinged panels. It is intended for use in inch-measurement systems and fits standard clevis-style and drilled-hole mounting configurations.

Key Features

• Quick-release mechanism allows tool-free pin removal for fast disassembly
• T-handle design provides secure hand grip and positive pull
• 4130 alloy steel construction for strength in moderate-load applications
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in general-use environments
• 0.5 inch pin diameter and 6 inch usable length for versatile fitment
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard imperial tooling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for industrial fixtures, jigs, and mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.5 inch diameter quick-release pin with a 6 inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand without special tools. Verify the receiving hole diameter matches the 0.5 inch pin diameter before installation, and confirm the usable length is sufficient to span the full thickness of the assembly. Inspect the quick-release mechanism for proper spring function before placing the assembly into service. Remove load from the assembly before extracting the pin to prevent uncontrolled movement.
