Sea-Dog Release Pin 1/4 Inch x 1-1/2 Inch, 304 Stainless Steel, Sold in Pairs

This Sea-Dog release pin is a standard duty detent pin sized 1/4 inch by 1-1/2 inch, made from formed 304 stainless steel for corrosion resistance in marine environments. It is designed for basic holding and removal applications that do not require a positive locking ball feature, and is activated with a simple push or pull motion. A spring-loaded detent ball depresses on insertion and springs back up to hold the pin in place, allowing quick release when needed. The robust, durable design suits repetitive-use applications where a part needs to be removed and reinserted often.

Typical uses include anchor clevis fittings, hinge pins, and as a replacement for cotter pins in spots where frequent removal is required, such as bimini top and deck hardware. Each pin includes a split ring so an optional lanyard can be attached to prevent loss overboard. This pin is sold as a pair. Note that the deck hinge shown in reference imagery is a separate component and is not included with this pin.
