J. W. Winco, Inc. GN 113.1

GN 113.1 rapid release pins are used for rapid clamping and simultaneously play-free clamping of thin components in particular where frequent clamping and releasing is required. A typical application is the alignment and clamping of sheet metal during a welding process. By depressing the spring-loaded push button, the pin advances by the length l2 and at the same time frees the two balls. When the push button is released the balls are locked in their forward position and at the same time use the clamping force to clamp the components together. Split ring GN 111 with various lengths of chain is available to prevent loss or misplacement of the ball lock pin.
