Quick Release Pin 1/4in x 2in

The Quick Release Pin 1/4in x 2in by Allstar Performance is an indispensable fastening solution for automotive enthusiasts, fabricators, and mechanics who demand tool-free assembly and disassembly in high-vibration environments. Whether you're building a custom suspension, securing removable body panels, or installing quick-disconnect safety equipment on a race car, this pin provides repeatable, reliable engagement without threads or tools. The 1/4-inch diameter shaft and 2-inch overall length make it ideal for light to medium-duty applications where accessibility and speed matter.

Engineered with a captive spring-loaded detent mechanism, the Quick Release Pin locks firmly in place when seated and retracts smoothly when pulled—eliminating accidental dislocation under road or track loads. The zinc-plated steel construction resists corrosion in damp garages and salt-air environments, while the polished pin head allows for confident one-handed operation even while wearing gloves. The compact 4-inch overall package length fits tight engine bays and fabricated brackets, and the 0.11-pound weight keeps your build lightweight without sacrificing durability. Allstar Performance's manufacturing tolerances ensure consistent fit across multiple pins, critical when building modular or frequently reconfigured systems.

This pin is a favorite among vintage hot-rod builders, off-road fabricators, and weekend racers who value quick pit adjustments and repeatable hardware repeatability. Common applications include hood and trunk hold-down systems, removable suspension links, battery box quick-disconnects, and roll cage attachment points where occasional disassembly is expected. Verify bore and hole spacing in your bracket design before purchase; the 1/4-inch shaft diameter requires a corresponding clearance hole or bushed pocket. Stock extras—quick-release pins are consumables in high-use build environments and replacements are inexpensive insurance against downtime.
