Locator Pins

[Guest filwaf]

Hi Guys, I will soon be picking up my chassis and so will be fitting panels etc on the car at the appropriate time. What are the advantages of Cleco pins over Skin pins and are there any other temporary fasteners out there which I should be considering.

Someone will probably correct me but I believe Cleco pins are easier because you can use them one handed whilst the other hand is holding the sheet metal. Skin pins tend to be screw adjusted to clamp so you need two hands to operate them, one to hold the pin, one to adjust so a spare person to hold the metal. I also think Cleco pin maybe a brand name.

Used skin pins on our build, loads available on e-bay.
