The Premium .250" Press Fit Pivot with 3-Slot Head is engineered for optimal performance in folding knives, tools, and balisongs. It features an innovative "Lube Groove" system, designed to enhance the flow and retention of lubricants around the pivot area. This groove helps direct lubricants more effectively, improving the smoothness of the pivot action and extending the life of your knife's pivot system. The groove also helps prevent lubricant buildup or drying, keeping the mechanism functioning at its best.
This pivot uses a serrated press-fit design for a secure and tight fit, ensuring that it will not spin or loosen after being tightened. The press-fit mechanism is perfect for knife builders, offering both ease of assembly and the long-term reliability that professionals and hobbyists demand. Made from heat-treated 400 series stainless steel, this pivot ensures exceptional durability and resistance to wear, making it a top choice for high-performance blades.
The design allows the pivot to press directly into your knife bolster, liner, or frame, providing a secure, non-rotating fit. Once tightened, the pivot stays firmly in place, preventing any loosening over time. The "Lube Groove" improves both the fluidity of movement and the overall longevity of your blade/pivot system, ensuring a smooth, reliable operation for years to come.
