FAQs
How to use a lynchpin?
To use a lynchpin, start by inserting the pin through the aligned holes of the two objects you want to secure together. Ensure that the pin passes through both objects completely.
Once the pin is in place, slide the attached spring or ring over the end of the pin to secure it in position. The spring or ring will prevent the pin from sliding out of the holes, keeping the objects securely connected.
