TMC 1911 Pin Kit – Stainless Steel
Complete Hardened Steel Pin Set for 1911 Pistols
The TMC 1911 Pin Kit delivers a complete 12‑piece replacement set of precision‑machined, hardened steel pins engineered to restore tight fit, smooth operation, and long‑term reliability to any 1911 pistol. Moreover, this kit stands apart as the only fully comprehensive pin set of its kind, making it an ideal solution for shooters and builders who demand precision and consistency. By replacing worn or undersized factory pins, you immediately improve alignment, engagement, and overall function. As a result, the pistol performs reliably whether it is used for competition, duty, or custom builds.
Pins play a critical role in alignment, timing, and component retention throughout the entire pistol. When those pins loosen or wear, reliability quickly declines. For this reason, the TMC 1911 Pin Kit replaces every critical pin with properly heat‑treated, precision‑fit components. Consequently, secure engagement and smooth cycling remain consistent even under high round counts and repeated recoil.
Why the TMC 1911 Pin Kit Outperforms Factory Pins
Eliminating Common Reliability Issues
Many factory pins rely on softer steel and looser tolerances to reduce manufacturing costs. Over time, repeated recoil and cycling cause these pins to walk, lose fit, deform, or mushroom. As a result, operation becomes inconsistent and long‑term reliability suffers. In contrast, the TMC 1911 Pin Kit uses hardened steel combined with controlled tolerances. Because of this approach, components stay locked in place and alignment remains stable. Ultimately, the pistol runs tighter, smoother, and more predictably.
Precision Machined for Secure Fit
Consistency Across Every Pin
Each pin in the TMC 1911 Pin Kit is machined to exact specifications. As a result, diameter control remains precise, surface finish stays smooth, and hardness supports extended service life. In addition, consistent pin length ensures proper engagement between the frame, slide, and internal components. This precise fit eliminates wobble, reduces wear, and preserves correct timing across all moving parts. Consequently, long‑term function remains reliable and repeatable.
What’s Included
Complete 12‑Piece TMC 1911 Pin Kit
This kit includes the most commonly replaced and critical frame and slide pins used during full 1911 rebuilds and upgrades:
-
Main Spring housing pin
-
Mainspring housing cap
-
Mainspring housing retainer
-
MSH cap pin
-
Hammer strut pin
-
Hammer pin
-
Sear pin
-
Ejector pin
-
Barrel link pin
-

Compatibility
Fitment Overview
This pin kit fits most single‑stack 1911 pistols, including Government and Commander models. Furthermore, it integrates seamlessly with many custom 1911 builds and major manufacturers such as Colt, Kimber, and Springfield Armory. Because each pin is precision machined, installation typically requires no fitting. As a result, builders save time while achieving consistent, repeatable performance.
Ideal Applications
Where This Pin Kit Excels
The TMC 1911 Pin Kit is especially well suited for:
-
Full 1911 rebuilds
-
Preventive maintenance upgrades
-
Competition pistols
-
Duty and carry firearms
-
Custom 1911 projects
-
Replacement of worn factory pins
By addressing every critical pin at once, the kit ensures predictable operation across a wide range of uses.
Built for Long‑Term Performance
Strength You Can Rely On
Soft factory pins often bend, deform, or walk under heavy recoil. By comparison, the TMC 1911 Pin Kit resists these failures through hardened steel construction and precise tolerances. As a result, components remain properly aligned, cycling stays smooth, and critical engagement surfaces stay protected throughout the life of the pistol.
Summary
Overall, the TMC 1911 Pin Kit restores tight fit, eliminates pin walk, and improves overall reliability. With precision machining, hardened steel construction, and complete coverage of critical pins, this kit delivers secure retention and long‑term performance. Therefore, for shooters and builders who demand consistency, durability, and dependable function, this pin kit is a foundational upgrade for any 1911 built to run hard and run right.
