Pinning

Pinning is a fundamental installation technique, headless pins being used to secure small objects on slanted or vertical surfaces, to stabilize objects with irregular bases or high centers of gravity, to prevent objects from "walking" because of background vibration, or as place markers to insure that pieces are reinstalled correctly after temporary removal.  For accuracy and control in pinning, we offer our customized pinning pliers, along with forming pliers and chain-nose pliers to help in shaping the pins.  Because you might need to drill holes for your pins, we offer tiny drill bits, color-coded to match our stainless steel pins, along with heat-shrink tubing for when protective padding is required.
