12mm oblong quick release pin flange receptacle Stainless Steel

What are flanged receptacles for quick release pins?

Flanged receptacles offer a permanent and precise locating point for quick-release pins. They are designed to be used with materials, or in applications, where the pin lacks a surface to lock against. As the pin does not extend beyond the bottom of the receptacle, they are suitable for blind-hole installations or where there is limited clearance behind the mounting surface.

Receptacles can be securely fixed using screws, bolts, or rivets, offering flexibility across a wide variety of materials and mounting conditions. To accommodate various installation requirements these flanges are available in a range of shapes, including round, rectangular, oblong, and diamond. These options help suit different mounting footprints, space constraints, and aesthetic preferences.

Manufactured from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, these receptacles are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

The grip length reduction refers to the portion of the pin housed within the receptacle, effectively reducing the usable grip length of the pin — an important factor to consider during selection.

Quick-release pins are inserted from the flanged side and allow for fast, tool-free installation and removal, making them ideal for applications requiring frequent assembly and disassembly, such as jigs, fixtures and quick-change tooling.
