OVERVIEW

The Fitter's Best Friend for Fast Flange Fit-Ups

Ask any pipe fitter what the most annoying part of the job is, and they'll likely tell you it's fighting with a heavy flange while trying to get it leveled and two-holed. You're often working in tight spots, up on a lift, or in awkward positions where you don't have three hands to hold a level, a pin, and a hammer. Enter the Sumner Qwik Pins®. These aren't just pins; they are the fastest way to get your flange tacked and welded without the headache. Designed specifically for carbon steel applications, these pins are built to grab onto the flange and hold it exactly where you need it.

The magic is in the tapered design. As you push the Qwik Pin into the bolt hole, the taper naturally finds the center, aligning the flange hole with the pipe axis automatically. You don't need to tap it around with a hammer to get it true. Once it's in, the Acme threads take over. These big, chunky threads let you crank the pin down tight using just your hand. You don't need to fumble for a wrench or worry about stripping fine threads. They bite in and hold the flange face flush against the pipe, giving you a perfect gap for your root pass.

Durability is non-negotiable on the job site. Tools get dropped, thrown, and covered in grime. Sumner knows this, which is why the Qwik Pins are made from hardened carbon steel. They are tough enough to handle the abuse of a fabrication shop or a field site. They fit a huge range of hole sizes—from 5/8" all the way up to 1-5/8"—so one pair covers you for a wide variety of pipe sizes. Stop wasting time with drift pins and wedges that slip out at the worst moment.

Why you need these in your bucket:

  • No Tools Needed: Hand-tighten only. Leave the wrench in your pocket.
  • Fast Setup: Push, turn, and you're ready to level.
  • Tough Build: Hardened steel won't bend when you're wrestling a heavy slip-on or weld-neck.
  • Perfect Fit: Auto-centering taper guarantees accuracy every time.

Grab a pair of Sumner Qwik Pins and make your next fit-up the easiest part of your day.

FAQ

The Sumner Qwik Pins Model QWIKP are designed to fit flange bolt holes ranging from 5/8 inch to 1-5/8 inches (16 mm to 42 mm).

These specific pins are made of carbon steel and are recommended for use on carbon steel flanges to avoid potential carbon contamination. For stainless steel applications, Sumner offers stainless steel versions of the Qwik Pins.

No, the Qwik Pins feature Acme threads that allow for secure tightening by hand. No tools are required for installation or removal.

The product is sold as a pair (2 pins), which is the standard quantity required to align and level a flange (two-holing).

They are manufactured from hardened carbon steel, providing high durability and resistance to bending or deformation.

No, Qwik Pins are alignment and fit-up tools only. They should never be used as lifting devices or rigging hardware.

Acme threads are coarser and stronger than standard threads, allowing for faster tightening and greater clamping force without the risk of cross-threading or stripping in dirty environments.
