Safety Pins

Safety pins secure hitch pins, clevis pins and gates to scaffolding, outriggers, base plates, side brackets or guard rails. These industrial lock pins and snap pins create tension through a coiled or uncoiled wire to provide a positive lock. Raptor Supplies offers these safety pins from brands like Fabory, Unitherm, Itw Bee Leitzke and Saw Trax.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do snap pins work?

  • Snap pins have a spring attached to the pin head.
  • The ring flips over to keep the pin in place when the pin has been put into its matching component.
  • The pin may be held in place without a second, independent cotter thanks to this one-piece construction.

How to measure a safety pin?

  • Safety pins are measured on the basis of wire diameter, height, effective length and overall length.
  • The wire diameter is measured by simply measuring the wire thickness of the pin.
  • The effective length is the usable open space of the pin when it is closed.

What are the different types of locking pins?

  • Quick-Release Detent Pins: These alignment pins are made of stainless steel and used to fix machine parts and workpieces using a push-button. They have a positive locking mechanism to guarantee reliable component fastening.
  • Pull Metal Dowel Pins: They are essentially the same as conventional metal dowel pins, but have internal threading that enables pneumatic tool removal. They are extracted using a specific threaded tool that is fastened into the dowel.
  • Magnetic Quick-Release Pins: They are ideal for applications that need a positive stop. These pins rely on magnetic axial locks instead of ball-lock pins to fixate & connect various pieces together. Once the locking pin is put into the hole, magnets in the handle or grip preserve the axial alignment and retain the locking pin in place. The pin's flat surfaces and perpendicular insertion bore considerably increase retention forces.
  • Clevis Pins: They feature a perpendicular bore at the bottom that allows them to be locked in place using locking cotter pins, split pins & hairpin cotters, even though they are not locking pins by default. With the exception of the hairpin cotter, the majority of cotter pins must be removed using hand tools like nose pliers.
  • Hitch Pins: These oversized clevis pins have a handle and are used for coupling two components. Since these pins are not self-locking, they are usually secured with a hitch pin or cotter pin clip.
  • Lynch Pins: These self-locking pins are put into the end of an axle or shaft crosswise. They effectively prevent parts from detaching from the axle. These are often made of high-carbon steel or stainless steel.
  • Alignment Pins: They are used with fixtures & jigs, and are used for aligning the workplace with the work holder or for positioning with respect to removable work holder parts.

Can you spackle over drywall anchors?

  • Using a putty knife, you can fill holes using spackling paste after removing wall anchors.
  • Smoothen the holes such that they are flat with the wall.
  • Dry off and lightly sand them to make the area smooth.
