5/16" Pop Pin - Dual Action T-handle - Twist & Lock Mechanism

5/16" Pop Pin - Dual Action T-handle - Twist & Lock Mechanism will solve the problem of a loose inner tube in telescopic adjustment. A small amount of free tolerance is required for a seat adjustment (for example) to telescope in and out. This same tolerance causes a loose feeling and allows the seat to rotate and rattle while in use. This dual action pop pin is 2 mechanisms in one:

Simply pull on T-handle to disengage spring-loaded pin and move to desired adjustment. Allow spring loaded pin to engage in new hole. Then twist T-handle clockwise to torque down on the inner tube against the inside walls of the outer tube to stabilize the set up. This double action prevents seating and other adjustments from moving around during use. Use the supplied M18-1.5 Metric threaded bulk head, or machine your own solution.
