Product Description
Snap Lock Pins
Snap Lock Pins are push-fit fasteners designed to secure panels and lightweight components through a pre-drilled hole with no screws, nuts or installation tools required. Once inserted, the flexible locking legs expand behind the panel to hold the joint firmly in place, supporting fast, repeatable assembly in production, maintenance and on-site fitting.
What are Snap Lock Pins?
Snap Lock Pins (also referred to as an arrowhead design) are nylon panel fixings that create a secure mechanical lock when pushed into a panel hole. This makes them a practical solution where metal fixings are not suitable, where access is restricted or where a quick, clean method of fastening is required without threaded hardware.
How to Install
Push the pin into a correctly sized hole. During insertion the legs compress, then expand on the reverse side of the panel to lock the pin in position. This provides reliable retention and helps prevent loosening in vibration-prone assemblies.
Key Features:
- Tool-free push-fit installation for rapid assembly
- Locks in place once fitted for secure panel retention
- Suitable where screws and nuts are not permitted or practical
- Vibration-resistant hold for stable assemblies
- Nylon 66 construction provides corrosion resistance and electrical insulation
- Flame rated material options for compliance-led applications
Key Applications and Industries
Snap Lock Pins are commonly used in electronics and general industrial assembly where consistent positioning and quick fitting are required including:
- Fixing connectors to PCBs prior to soldering
- PCB assemblies and electronic housings
- HVAC units and ventilation equipment
- Appliances and white goods
- Point of sale signage and display panels
- General panel and lightweight component fastening
