Jergens 800616 Quick-release Pin 1/4 in Dia Button Handle

Product Description

The JERGENS 800616 is a push-button quick-release pin designed for fast, tool-free removal in structural, jig, fixture, and machine assembly applications. The pin features a 0.25 inch diameter and 0.5 inch usable length, with a 1.75 inch overall length. The body is 17-4 stainless steel with a passivated finish for corrosion resistance, and the handle is aluminum for lightweight operation. Rated to 9,200 pounds double-shear breaking strength, this pin is suited for demanding industrial and aerospace-adjacent assembly work. A licensed mechanic, maintenance technician, or tooling engineer typically installs and services this type of fastener.

This pin is used in jigs, fixtures, tooling setups, and quick-change assembly systems where frequent removal and reinstallation are required. The button-actuated ball-detent mechanism allows single-handed engagement and release without tools. Typical applications include aerospace ground support equipment, industrial fixtures, and military-specification assemblies where fastener standards AMS-QQ-P-35, MIL-A-8625, MIL-C-5541, MIL-H-6875, and QQ-P-416 apply.

Key Features

• Push-button ball-detent mechanism allows tool-free, single-handed removal
• 17-4 stainless steel pin body with passivated finish for corrosion resistance
• 440C stainless steel balls at Rockwell C40 hardness for wear resistance
• 9,200 pound double-shear breaking strength for high-load applications
• Aluminum button handle reduces overall component weight
• Meets multiple military and aerospace fastener specifications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style quick-release pin for use in standard 0.25 inch pin-diameter fixtures, jigs, and tooling assemblies requiring compliance with AMS-QQ-P-35, MIL-A-8625, MIL-C-5541, MIL-H-6875, or QQ-P-416 fastener standards.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools - insert the pin into the mating hole and confirm the ball detents seat fully before loading. Verify the hole diameter and usable length match the application before installation. Inspect the ball detents and spring mechanism for wear or contamination during routine maintenance. De-energize or lock out any moving machinery before removing or replacing quick-release pins in live assemblies.
