THE TUF-N-LITE®  "READY PIN"

Designed for demanding contractors, built to exacting specifications
to suit today's construction environment.

 
Now available on all of our forms from 36 inch to 10 inch. Our revolutionary, super lightweight and super durable attached hardware will provide you with many years of trouble free, dependable service.

We use Super Tough Nylon to mold our Ready Pin holder and slide, which provides superior strength and durability without unnecessary weight. This nylon offers wear characteristics better than steel and much better than aluminum. This, Super Tough Nylon, Ready Pin will work for you under any weather condition. Our Ready Pin is unaffected by summer heat or winter cold and ice. The Ready Pin needs no special lubrication to remain usable like some other attached hardware systems. Our Ready Pin will not rust or corrode, nor will concrete adhere to its nylon surfaces.

We use an improved version of the standard steel pin on our attached hardware. We chose to manufacture our pin form tempered 4140 alloy steel, which is harder than most other pin manufacturers offer. This hardness effectively prevents the common "mushrooming" of the pin from hammer impacts during the strip. Our steel pin has a steep taper towards the end, which quickly ejects it from the tie and form side rails. You will be surprised at how easy it is to set and strip with the Tuf-N-Lite® Ready Pin.

The Tuf-N-Lite® Ready Pin has a positive stop for both extended and stored positions. The slide portion of the Ready Pin has an area that is easy to impact, if needed, to retract the pin from the side rail. You may also retract the pin beyond the stored position stop to allow clearance for standard pin and wedge use. The stops are molded into the part so there are no set screws, ball bearings, or steel springs to rust, wear out, break, or lose. There are no special tools required to use our Ready Pin. Simply use your and hammer to slide between positions.
