Choose-a-Color T-Handle Locking Quick-Release Pins

Use these colorful pins to improve visibility, color-code processes, or for a finished look. A T-handle makes them easy to grip. For a more secure hold than standard quick-release pins, they lock in place until you push the button to release the spring-loaded retaining balls. Use them in a hole as close to the diameter as possible, but not larger than the diameter at extended ball height. Pins are made of 17-4 PH stainless steel for strength with some corrosion resistance, and are passivated for added protection against corrosion and oxidation. They are magnetic. Breaking strength is measured as double shear, which is the force required to break a pin into three pieces.

Clamp-Action Locking Quick-Release Pins

The shaft on these pins retracts up to 5 mm into the head to hold thin sheets of material together. For a more secure hold than standard quick-release pins, these pins lock in place until you push the button to release the spring-loaded retaining balls. Use them in a hole as close to the diameter as possible, but not larger than the diameter at extended ball height. Pins are made of 18-8 stainless steel for good corrosion resistance. The lanyard keeps them from getting lost when removed. Breaking strength is measured as double shear, which is the force required to break a pin into three pieces.

Quick-Release Pins for Access Panels
Attach these pins to a machine cover or access panel, then clip the panel on to an enclosure. Install them in a receptacle (sold separately). They're made of nickel-plated steel for good strength and some corrosion resistance.
Twist-to-lock pins lock and unlock with a quarter turn of the head.

Knob-Grip Quick-Release Pins

A high-profile knob is easy to grip, but fits in small spaces. Pins have a spring-loaded ball that pops out when the pin is pushed into a hole, and retracts when the pin is pulled out. For the best fit, the hole should be as close to the diameter as possible, but not larger than the diameter at extended ball height. Pins are made of 18-8 stainless steel for a balance of strength and corrosion resistance. The head has a hole to add a ring and lanyard (sold separately). Breaking strength is measured as single shear, which is the force required to break a pin into two pieces.

Press-Fit Ball-Nose Spring Plungers


Designed with a flange to keep the plunger from being pushed through a hole when the ball is depressed. These spring plungers have a tapered end and smooth body to make them easy to press into unthreaded holes in soft material such as wood, plastic, and aluminum. Drill a slightly smaller hole for a snug fit.
Steel is strong and wear resistant.
Stainless steel is chemical resistant and may be mildly magnetic.
Plastic is chemical resistant and lightweight; plastic noses are extra soft to minimize marring soft surfaces such as aluminum.
Extended nose force is the force required to begin to depress the nose. Compressed nose force is the force required to depress the nose flush with the body. When using a plunger as a detent or stop, a lighter nose force with a shallower hole releases more easily, while a heavier force with a deeper hole holds more securely.

Slotted Ball-Nose Spring Plungers


Install these spring plungers with a screwdriver—they're slotted on one or both ends. The ball nose rolls to minimize wear and allow parts to move in and out of position.
Steel is strong and wear resistant.
440C stainless steel is hard, wear resistant, and mildly chemical resistant.
18-8 stainless steel is chemical resistant.
Plastic is chemical resistant and lightweight; nylon noses are extra soft to minimize marring soft surfaces such as aluminum.
Spring plungers without thread locker are for use in soft material such as aluminum, in extreme temperatures, and on parts requiring frequent assembly and removal.
Spring plungers with thread locker have a locking element that adds friction to resist loosening.
Extended nose force is the force required to begin to depress the nose. Compressed nose force is the force required to depress the nose flush with the body. When using a plunger as a detent or stop, a lighter nose force with a shallower hole releases more easily, while a heavier force with a deeper hole holds more securely.

Twist-to-Lock Ball-Style Weld-Mount Retractable Spring Plungers


A quarter turn of the handle locks these plungers in the retracted position. Weld them in place for a strong permanent hold. The smooth ball handle is easy to grip and won't catch on other parts, and the long nose that provides a large bearing surface to handle side loads. Pull the handle to retract the nose.
Steel is strong and wear resistant.
