Learn How It Works

Why Pins Seize Up

Seized pins stall production lines and block restarts. Corrosion, wear, and contamination lock them in place under pressure. Safety risks mount as teams scramble to fix without torches.

Why This Happens

Corrosion from moisture and contaminants builds up, locking pins tight. Wear and load cycling deform surfaces, increasing friction and seizure. Thermal effects expand materials, worsening pack-out and preventing easy removal.
