** The Ducati-Special Anti-Pinch Pin is only recommended where there is no alternative due to very limited space such that the other Pins will not fit, such as on the rear axle of various Ducati Panigale, Monster, etc models. This is now only supplied as a Super Pin variant to counter the reduced steel bar thickness.
Note: Pin lengths can be expressed in different ways to give full clarity - Be sure that you are checking the right dimension! The Usable Length is not the same as the Nominal Length and this varies again with Super Dooper Pins!
The Usable Length generally equates to the thickness of chain links you intend to use plus the width of your bike at the point and route where you intend to use the Pin. E.g. when using a 19mm chain and fitting a Pin through a rear axle, the chain links (2 x 19 = 38mm) plus the width of that axle would give you the minimum Usable Length - We'd always recommend adding a bit to allow for tolerances. The following tables show example Usable Lengths of Pins we manufacture and the resultant maximum bike/axle width that can be used with various chain options.
For the standard Anti-Pinch Pin, the Usable Length is given by Nominal Length - 44mm,
Usable Length | Max Bike Width (2x16mm Links) | Max Bike Width (2x19mm Links) | Max Bike Width (2x22mm Links**) | Nominal Length |
---|---|---|---|---|
116mm | 84mm | 78mm | 72mm | 160mm |
156mm | 124mm | 118mm | 112mm | 200mm |
206mm | 174mm | 168mm | 162mm | 250mm |
246mm | 214mm | 208mm | 202mm | 290mm |

396mm | 364mm | 358mm | 352mm | 440mm |
446mm | 414mm | 408mm | 402mm | 490mm |
Note that dimensions are nominal.
For the Super Pin, the Usable Length is given by Nominal Length - 47mm.
Usable Length | Max Bike Width (2x16mm Links) | Max Bike Width (2x19mm Links) | Max Bike Width (2x22mm Links *) | Nominal Length |
---|---|---|---|---|
203mm | 171mm | 165mm | 159mm | 250mm |
243mm | 211mm | 205mm | 199mm | 290mm |
293mm | 261mm | 255mm | 249mm | 340mm |
343mm | 311mm | 305mm | 299mm | 390mm |
393mm | 361mm | 355mm | 349mm | 440mm |
443mm | 411mm | 405mm | 399mm | 490mm |
Note that dimensions are nominal.
For the Super Dooper Pin for the Squire SS80CS, the Usable Length is given by Nominal Length - 55mm.
For the Super Dooper Pin for the Abloy PL362, the Usable Length is given by Nominal Length - 47mm.
Usable Length | Max Bike Width (2x22mm Links) | Max Bike Width (2x16mm Links**) | Nominal Length (Squire SS80CS Version) | Nominal Length (Abloy PL362 Version) |
---|---|---|---|---|
220mm | 176mm | 188mm | 275mm | 267mm |
260mm | 216mm | 228mm | 315mm | 307mm |
310mm | 266mm | 278mm | 365mm | 357mm |
360mm | 316mm | 328mm | 415mm | 407mm |
410mm | 366mm | 378mm | 465mm | 457mm |
460mm | 416mm | 428mm | 515mm | 507mm |
.** Note that the Protector 16mm does not generally provide the same level of security as the Super Dooper Pin. The Super Dooper Pin is designed for use with the Protector Titan 22mm Bare Ended and thicker chains that will accommodate its 30mm diameter bar.
Note that dimensions are nominal.
