Most takedown and pivot pin sets ship pins only — you still have to source detents and springs separately. The Armaspec ARM146-BLK Superlight Kit includes everything for both pin positions in one bag: the takedown pin, pivot pin, both detents, and both springs. The pins are machined from aluminum for a superlight profile, and carry Armaspec’s enhanced feature set — convex head for tap installation from any angle, extended concave tip for easy removal, and the EZ-Set hole that holds the detent in place while you seat the pin. Mil-spec .250″ diameter for drop-in fit on any standard AR-15, M16, or M4 lower.

- 1x Armaspec Superlight pivot pin — aluminum, black, convex head, EZ-Set hole
- 2x takedown and pivot pin detents
- 2x detent springs
What Makes the Armaspec Superlight Different from Standard Pins
Standard mil-spec takedown and pivot pins are plain steel cylinders. The ARM146-BLK improves on that in three ways: the convex head lets you push the pin in without needing a perfectly centered punch; the extended concave tip gives you a solid removal point using anything flat or pointed; and the EZ-Set hole seats the detent inside the pin body during installation so the spring can’t launch it across the room. The aluminum construction sheds weight compared to steel while the mil-spec .250″ diameter ensures full compatibility.
