{"product_id":"stinger-twister-trigger-pin","title":"Trigger Pin \u0026 Screw for Twister Tools","description":"\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eTrigger Pin for Stinger Twister Tools\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trigger pin\u0026amp; Screw is the pivot the trigger swings on. It passes through the trigger and into the tool body, holding the trigger in position while letting it rotate through its travel. Every squeeze of the trigger loads this one small piece of stainless, thousands of times a day, which is why it is both the cheapest part in the tool and the one most likely to sideline it. Once the pin walks loose, shears, or bends from a drop onto concrete, the trigger goes sloppy, stops returning cleanly, or falls out of the tool entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStinger handles this as a single part. Tornador splits the same job across two separate pieces, a trigger pin and a trigger screw, so their repair means sourcing two SKUs and hoping you grabbed the right pair. One Twister pin covers it. That matters most on a bench running multiple tools, where a $4 part in the drawer is the difference between a five minute fix and a tool that sits idle.

A tool missing its trigger pin is fully down, no matter how good the rest of it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the trigger pin \u0026amp; screw actually do?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the axle for the trigger. The pin runs through the trigger and anchors into the tool body, so the trigger pivots around it instead of flopping loose. Nothing about air delivery or cleaning performance changes when it wears, but the trigger stops working properly, which takes the whole tool out of service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I know the trigger pin has failed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStart with trigger feel. Side to side wobble, a trigger that no longer returns crisply on release, uneven travel, or a trigger that has worked its way partly out of the body all point at the pin. If the trigger falls out entirely, the pin has sheared or backed out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do trigger pins fail?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo reasons. Cycle count, because the pin absorbs the actuation load every single squeeze, and impact, because these tools get dropped on concrete floors. A drop that lands on the trigger transfers straight into the pin and will bend or shear it well before it damages anything else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this the same as the Tornador trigger pin and screw?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt serves the same function but it is not the same part. Tornador uses a separate trigger pin and trigger screw. Stinger consolidates that into one Twister pin \u0026amp; screw. If you run both tool lines in your shop, stock them separately rather than assuming they cross over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do you replace it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDisconnect the tool from air first, every time. Back the old pin out, seat the trigger in position, and drive the new pin through until it is fully home. No further disassembly is needed, and the whole job takes a couple of minutes on the bench.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stinger Chemicals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52395750031656,"sku":"SC-T-RTP","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/3589\/2776\/files\/Stinger-Chemical-ST-T-RTP-trigger-pin-thumbnail.jpg?v=1790781653","url":"https:\/\/snsautosupply.com\/products\/stinger-twister-trigger-pin","provider":"SNS Auto Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
