What is the BROWNELLS - ROLL PIN HOLDERS?
ROLL PIN HOLDERS


The Brownells Roll Pin Holders are precision-engineered tools designed to securely hold roll pins in perfect alignment during firearm assembly or maintenance, ensuring accurate and damage-free installation. These holders are particularly beneficial for handling small, hard-to-grasp pins or those situated in tight spaces.


Available Sizes and Specifications:

The Roll Pin Holders are available individually or as a complete 5-piece set, accommodating various pin sizes commonly encountered in firearms:
  • #1 - 1/16" (1.6mm): Notched to clear M16/AR-15 rear sights, facilitating easier installation in these specific models.
  • #2 - 5/64" (2.0mm): Ideal for slightly larger pins, providing a secure hold during installation.
  • #3 - 3/32" (2.4mm): Suitable for medium-sized pins, ensuring precise alignment.
  • #4 - 1/8" (3.2mm): Designed for larger pins, maintaining stability during insertion.
  • #5 - 3.5mm (0.138"): Excellent for holding the pin that retains the breech block on Sig handguns.


Each holder is made from high-quality steel, ensuring durability and longevity. After the pin is properly started using the holder, it is recommended to finish driving it in with a roll pin punch for optimal results.


Product Variations:

Brownells offers these Roll Pin Holders in both standard and premium versions:
  • Standard Roll Pin Holders: Constructed from durable steel, these holders provide reliable performance for general gunsmithing tasks.
  • Premium Roll Pin Holders: Made from 5/16" hex high carbon 5160 steel that is Bainite heat treated for enhanced strength. Each holder features a single groove in the grip section and is laser marked for quick identification.

Incorporating Brownells Roll Pin Holders into your gunsmithing toolkit enhances efficiency and precision, ensuring that roll pins are installed correctly without compromising the integrity of the firearm components.

Brownells Roll PIn Holders
Probably like many others who build AR-15 type rifles and pistols I've struggled with installing roll pins, especially the smaller sized pins. Even using a shorter roll pin starter punch to get small pins in is a challenge. When using the Brownells Roll Pin holder matched to the size of the pin you are starting the challenge disappears! The tools hold the pin straight in place and are make it easy to position the pin straight before driving it into place. Once a pin is partially driven in it can be easily punched in all the way. I wish these roll pin holders were available years ago. A set is well worth the money.

Perfect for gas block install
After messing up my gas block roll pin that came with my BA Hanson barrel; I decided to break down and buy this tool. Makes the job way easier if you're installing a pinned gas block that uses a 1/8" roll pin. You don't have to worry about mushrooming the pin and it helps drive the pin in straighter than trying to use a roll pin punch. Only con is that it's a single function tool for the gas block; so you can't use it for anything else when building an AR-15.

These roll pin holder punches are like having a third hand. They make it very easy to start a pin into it's hole.
