Product Description:

What is a quick release pin?
Quick release pins, also known as ball lock pins, locking pins or safety pins, have a wide range of applications. They are used for securing, locking, connecting, adjusting and facilitating quick position changes.

When paired with a receiver plate, these pins provide a reliable and secure locking feature. The design ensures ease of use and facilitates quick changeover and replacement of parts as needed.

Quick release pins are highly resistant to shear, corrosion and wear. This makes them ideal for applications that require frequent, quick, manual assembly and disassembly of products.

Quick release pins are fastening connectors for quick locking and removal of workpieces, and can be used to quickly connect and hook up components. Pressing the button on the handle can make the steel ball on the head of the pin body retract and push the quick release pin through the hole of the workpiece; when the button is released, the steel ball pops out and the quick release pin can not be pulled out from the hole.

The pin body diameter and clamping length are processed with high precision, which is suitable for all kinds of high-precision positioning and insertion. Can be customised according to customer's requirements.

Quick Release Pin Head and Handle Styles
Quick release pins usually have a pin and a handle and come in a variety of handle styles. As such, they can also be categorised by head/handle type:
T-Handle Quick Release Pins, Ring Handle Quick Release Pins, L-Handle Quick Release Pins, Push Button Handle Quick Release Pins, Double Acting Quick Release Pins, Lifting Pins

T-Handle A wide range of handles featuring a T-shaped handle for a firm grip and simple operation. Attached parts are easily released by pulling and holding the handle.

L-Handle Quick-Release Pins A compromise between the ring handle and T-Handle variants. The release mechanism has an L-shaped handle on only one side of the pin. These are suitable for applications where a firm grip is required but there are space constraints.

Applications

Stainless steel release pins made from SS304, SS316, and SS316L are widely used in the chemical and food processing industries due to their resistance to corrosion, rust, and staining. These industries require materials that can withstand exposure to harsh chemicals, high temperatures, and frequent washing, making stainless steel the material of choice for release pins. Available in sizes ranging from M3 to M18 and in fractional measurements such as 7/16”, 1/2”, and 9/16”, these pins ensure versatility and durability in critical operations.

In the food processing industry, release pins are used in equipment like conveyors, mixers, and automated assembly lines. Their role is crucial in facilitating easy disassembly for cleaning, maintenance, and part replacement. Stainless steel’s non-reactive properties ensure that no harmful substances leach into food products, maintaining food safety standards while allowing for the rapid breakdown and reassembly of machines.

In the chemical processing industry, these pins are used in environments where high levels of chemicals and extreme temperatures are common. The corrosion-resistant properties of SS304, SS316, and SS316L stainless steel make these pins ideal for securing parts in reactors, filtration systems, and pipelines. Stainless steel’s ability to withstand the aggressive chemicals commonly used in these industries ensures that the release pins will last longer and require fewer replacements, thus improving operational efficiency.

Both industries benefit from the strength and durability of stainless steel, which can endure the demanding conditions of food and chemical processing plants. The stainless steel release pins offer a high degree of safety, reliability, and ease of maintenance, making them an essential component for equipment used in these sectors.
