Gibraltar LBT-SS3118 Quick-release T-handle Pin 304 Ss

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBT-SS3118 is a T-handle quick-release pin designed for fast, tool-free removal and insertion in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, jigs, and equipment mounting applications. The pin body measures 5/16 inch in diameter with a 3.5-inch usable length, giving it reach suitable for moderate-thickness panels and structural members. Constructed from grade 304 stainless steel with a bright finish, it resists corrosion in wet, outdoor, or wash-down environments. Installers and maintenance technicians use this type of pin where frequent disassembly is required without sacrificing secure retention during operation.

This quick-release pin is suited for light industrial, agricultural, and general mechanical applications where a positive-locking, manually operated pin is needed. The T-handle provides a grip surface that allows single-hand operation, making it practical in confined or repetitive-access situations. It is sold individually and sized to the inch standard, fitting designs and fixtures already dimensioned in inch-based tolerances.

Key Features

• T-handle grip enables fast, one-handed tool-free operation
• 5/16 inch pin diameter for moderate load and fitment applications
• 3.5 inch usable length accommodates panels and assemblies of comparable thickness
• Grade 304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion and oxidation
• Bright finish on pin body for low friction insertion and removal
• Inch-system dimensioning for direct fit in standard inch-toleranced fixtures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or maintenance stock pin for mechanical fixtures, jigs, agricultural equipment, and industrial assemblies requiring a 5/16 inch diameter quick-release T-handle pin with a 3.5 inch usable length in inch-standard sizing.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal require no special tools due to the T-handle design, but the mating hole or clevis must be clean and free of burrs before insertion to prevent galling the stainless steel body. Ensure the pin is fully seated and the retaining ball or detent is engaged before applying load to the assembly. When servicing equipment, relieve all mechanical tension or weight from the pinned joint before attempting removal. Stainless steel pins should not be used in direct contact with certain dissimilar metals in high-moisture environments without considering galvanic corrosion risk.
