Ball Lock and Detent Pins Offer Precision Alignment

Provided By Carr Lane Mfg. Co.

Carr Lane’s variety of quick-release pins offer precision alignment for many manufacturing, tooling, and assembly applications. Ball Lock Pins, the most popular type, have a precisely ground shank available in many diameters and grip lengths. These quick-release pins are positive locking until released by pushing a button, which moves the center spindle to allow the locking balls to retract into a radial groove. Ball Lock Pins are available single or double acting, in several handle styles, or in an adjustable grip length version. The Ball Lock Mounting System allows accurately locating and clamping at the same time, with just the twist of a hex wrench, and is ideal for mounting quick-change fixture plates on a subplate. Also featured are spring-loaded detent pins, and expanding pins with a positive cam action that expands split bushings to lock the pin in place. Lifting pins, which are single-acting ball lock pins with a one-piece body and four balls for high tension loads, are also featured. The lifting pin’s sturdy forged shackle allows for heavy lifting. Carr Lane recently introduced ball lock and detent pins for marine and other corrosive environments. View them in the online catalog at carrlane.com.

Achieve Positive Locking at Any Position With Adjustable Locking Hubs

Provided By Carr Lane Mfg. Co.

New Variloc® Adjustable Locking Hubs, in stainless steel or plastic, are available from Carr Lane Mfg. Co. These high strength hubs are positive locking at exact increments...10 or 15 degrees, depending on the model. Applications include adjustable or rotating fixtures, welding fixtures, trunnion mounting, adjustable and/or foldable handles, adjustable part trays and shelves, adjustable and/or flip-up work surfaces, positive positioning of spotlights or nozzles, and collapsable structures. Medical applications include folding and adjustment mechanisms for wheelchairs. The hubs can also act as an end effector on medical equipment to allow the operator to change the angle of operation. Panels can easily be flipped out of the way with a simple push button activation, improving ergonomics of machine control panels, vehicle workstations and touch screen adjustment. In fact, the hubs allow versatility whenever a design requires adjusting, reclining or folding, and are compatible with standard tubing. Steel and Stainless Steel Adjustable Locking Hubs are each available in two different styles, including an inline version, which allows locking anywhere within 220°, and an offset version, which allows full 360° rotation. Once locked, the hub becomes an absolutely rigid joint, able to withstand 80 ft.-lbs. of torque (5:1 safety factor). Plastic Locking Hubs are lightweight and economical, and withstand 7 ft.-lbs. of torque. In the unlocked position, the hub is free to rotate. Hub extensions and a variety of mounting options are available.
