Gibraltar LBT-SS7138 Quick-release T-handle Pin 3/8 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LBT-SS7138 is a quick-release T-handle pin designed for fast, tool-free pin removal in industrial, mechanical, and structural assembly applications. Constructed from 17-4 stainless steel with a bright finish, this pin delivers high strength and corrosion resistance in demanding environments. It features a 3/8-inch pin diameter and a 5-inch usable length, making it well suited for medium-load applications where secure, repeatable pinning and rapid disassembly are required. Machinists, fabricators, and maintenance technicians working on jigs, fixtures, hinges, and pin-retained assemblies will find this a reliable, standard-dimension fastener.

This quick-release pin is used in industrial machinery, workholding fixtures, fabrication setups, and equipment assemblies where a pin must be inserted and removed frequently without tools. The T-handle grip allows one-handed operation, reducing downtime during setup changes or field maintenance. It is appropriate for both light manufacturing and heavier fabrication environments where stainless steel material is specified for corrosion resistance or sanitary requirements.

Key Features

• Quick-release mechanism for tool-free, one-handed pin removal
• T-handle design provides positive grip for fast insertion and extraction
• 17-4 stainless steel construction for high strength and corrosion resistance
• Bright finish on pin body
• 3/8-inch pin diameter suits common standard pin-hole applications
• 5-inch usable length accommodates medium-depth assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension quick-release T-handle pin for use in fixtures, jigs, hinges, and pin-retained mechanical assemblies requiring a 3/8-inch diameter pin with a 5-inch usable length.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools — insert the pin into the aligned holes and the spring-loaded ball detent locks the pin in place. To remove, depress the release mechanism and pull the T-handle. Inspect the ball detent and spring mechanism before each use to confirm full retention function. Ensure mating holes are clean and free of debris to prevent binding or incomplete engagement.
