ANJOSHI quick-release hood pins 2.44in (62mm) two-pack — anodized T6 aluminium, 500 lb pull, stainless hardware

ANJOSHI 2.44in quick-release hood pins are anodized T6 aluminum push-button latches engineered to secure hoods and body panels while giving your vehicle a clean, race-inspired look.

This two-pack of ANJOSHI quick release latch kits combines lightweight T-6 aluminum with stainless steel hardware to deliver a durable, corrosion-resistant fastening solution for hoods, deck lids, bumpers and custom panels. Each latch has an outer diameter of 62 mm (2.44 in) and a 100 mm (3.94 in) mounting stud, and is rated to withstand up to approximately 500 lbs of pull force under normal conditions. They install with drilled mounting holes and use a push-button mechanism that lets you open or secure panels quickly without tools.

How secure are these ANJOSHI quick-release hood pins?

These latches are built from T-6 aluminum alloy and stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance. The manufacturer notes a pull capacity around 500 lbs; however, load distribution and panel size affect real-world durability, so multiple latches are recommended for larger applications.

• Rated pull resistance: ~500 lbs per latch under typical conditions
• Materials: anodized T6 aluminum body with stainless steel components
• Outer diameter: 62 mm (2.44 in); threaded underside diameter: 1.46 in
• Recommended for use in pairs or sets (2–4) depending on panel size

What vehicles and projects can these be used on?

While marketed for hoods, the push-button latches are versatile and suited for many fastening needs on cars, boats and custom builds. They’re commonly used on hood and bumper panels but also work well for deck lids, cabinets and other areas that benefit from a removable, secure connection.

• Automotive: hoods, bumpers, body panels and trunk or deck lids
• Marine and RV: small access panels, storage lids and hatch closures
• Industrial and DIY: cabinets, custom furniture, enclosures and prototypes
• Motorsport styling: adds a race-inspired exterior accent

How difficult is installation and what should I prepare?

Installation requires drilling accurately sized holes to match the latch dimensions and mounting stud length. Professional installation is recommended if you are not experienced with panel alignment or metalworking. Ensure you plan the number of latches based on panel size and expected forces to avoid uneven stress.

• Drill holes to match 62 mm outer diameter and 1.46 in underside threaded diameter
• Use 2–4 latches for larger panels to distribute load evenly
• Confirm stud clearance: mounting stud length 100 mm (3.94 in)
• Consider professional help for precise alignment and sealing

What comes in the package and what finish does it have?

The kit includes two push-button quick-release latch assemblies finished in black anodized coating for improved wear and corrosion resistance. Each latch includes the full mounting stud and hardware needed to assemble the connection; larger threaded rods or longer latches are available elsewhere if greater reach or strength is required.

• Pack contents: 2 x push-button quick release latch kits
• Finish: black anodized coating for durability and style
• Mounting stud length: 100 mm (3.94 in)
• Optional: consider larger latches or longer studs for heavier panels

Who is this for: The ANJOSHI 2.44in quick release latch kit is ideal for car enthusiasts, fabricators and DIYers who need a secure, quick-release fastening for hoods, deck lids or custom panels. Choose this kit if you want a lightweight, corrosion-resistant latch with a push-button release and a race-inspired appearance; plan on using multiple latches for larger panels or higher load situations and consider professional installation if precision is critical.
