Alum Hood Pins 1/2in 1/4in Holes Silver 20pk

The Alum Hood Pins 1/2in 1/4in Holes Silver 20pk from ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE is an essential fastening solution for race car builders, hot rod enthusiasts, and motorsports competitors who require secure, lightweight hood retention. These aluminum hood pins prevent hood flutter and unintended opening during high-speed driving, offering peace of mind whether you're on the track, at the drag strip, or cruising show circuits. Available in a convenient 20-pack, this solution provides economical coverage for fleet applications, multiple vehicles, or replacement inventory.

Each pin measures 0.5 inches in outer diameter and 4 inches in length, engineered from aluminum construction and finished in clear anodize for corrosion resistance and a refined appearance. The design accommodates both 1/2-inch and 1/4-inch hole configurations, offering flexibility across different hood and latch designs commonly found in street rods, muscle cars, and competition vehicles. Clear anodizing protects the aluminum substrate while maintaining a polished, show-quality finish that complements custom paint and detailing work. The lightweight aluminum construction minimizes added mass compared to steel alternatives, an important consideration in performance and racing applications where weight reduction directly impacts acceleration and handling.

These hood pins are ideal for fabricators installing custom hood latches, restoration shops upgrading vintage vehicles, and racers preparing cars for sanctioned events where hood security is mandatory. Installation requires drilling or pre-existing holes in both the hood and frame, then inserting the pin through aligned holes and securing with a cotter pin or safety wire. The 20-pack quantity suits shops handling multiple projects simultaneously or builders maintaining spare parts for quick repairs and maintenance. Whether you're building a Pro Street machine, classic car restoration, or dedicated race vehicle, these ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE pins deliver reliable, repeatable hood security for thousands of miles.
