Næxon

Fast flange alignment. Low-profile design. Built for pipefitters who don’t have time to fight the fit-up.

The Næxon Push Pins – Black Two-Hole Flange Pins are designed to make flange alignment faster, simpler, and more practical in the field or fabrication shop.

Built for pipefitters, welders, fabricators, and industrial craftsmen, these push-style two-hole pins provide a quick way to engage flange bolt holes during alignment and fit-up without turning a simple job into a complicated setup.

Their low-profile, clearance-friendly design makes them especially useful when working with socket-weld and slip-on flanges where space around the flange can be limited.

Available in two sizes:

Small
Large

Pick the size appropriate for the flange setup.

Push them in.

Get the flange aligned.

Get back to work.

Built for Flange Fit-Up

Anybody who has fitted pipe knows a flange can look right and still be wrong.

A little rotation at the flange becomes a problem when the next piece of equipment, valve, spool, or mating flange shows up.

Bolt holes need to line up.

Orientation matters.

Fit-up matters.

The Næxon Push Pins provide pipefitters with a simple tool designed specifically around two-hole flange alignment and positioning.

Insert the pins into the appropriate flange holes and use them as part of your alignment process before final fit-up and welding.

Simple tool.

Important job.

Rapid Push-In Installation

Fit-up tools shouldn’t create more work than they solve.

The Næxon Push Pins are designed for quick engagement, allowing the fitter to position them in the appropriate flange bolt holes without a complicated installation process.

No elaborate setup.

No unnecessary steps.

When you’re fitting multiple spools or working through a fabrication list, saving time on repeated tasks adds up.

The goal is straightforward:

Get the pins in. Get aligned. Keep moving.

Two-Hole Flange Alignment

The two-hole method is a familiar approach for pipefitters working to establish proper flange orientation.

The Næxon Push Pins are designed to engage two flange bolt holes and provide convenient reference points during the alignment process.

They can be used as part of the fitter’s normal leveling and alignment workflow to help position the flange before tack-up or welding.

Whether you’re working at a fabrication table or fitting pipe in the field, having dedicated flange pins in the toolbox can make repeated fit-up work faster and more consistent.

Low-Profile / Clearance-Friendly Design

Some flange alignment tools work perfectly until there isn’t enough room around the flange.

Real industrial piping isn’t always sitting comfortably on a fabrication table.

You might be working close to pipe.

Close to steel.

Against equipment.

Inside a rack.

Or around a flange configuration where extra tool clearance becomes a problem.

The Næxon Push Pins use a low-profile design intended to provide useful clearance during flange assembly and fit-up, including work involving socket-weld and slip-on flanges.

Less unnecessary bulk around the work.

More room for the fitter.

Made for Socket-Weld Flanges

Socket-weld flange fit-up can put the flange close to the pipe and surrounding work area.

The low-profile character of the Næxon Push Pins makes them particularly useful when additional clearance around the flange is valuable.

Position the flange.

Set your pins.

Establish alignment.

Verify the fit.

Then proceed according to the required fabrication and welding procedure.

Made for Slip-On Flanges

Slip-on flanges create their own fit-up challenges.

The flange must be positioned correctly on the pipe while maintaining proper orientation before welding.

The Næxon Push Pins provide convenient engagement points in the bolt holes, helping the fitter establish and verify flange orientation during assembly.

It’s a simple tool designed around a job pipefitters perform over and over again.

Small & Large Sizes

Flanges don’t come in one size.

Neither should your flange pins.

The Næxon Push Pins are available in Small and Large versions, giving pipefitters options for different flange and bolt-hole configurations.

SMALL PUSH PINS

The Small version is designed for compatible smaller flange bolt-hole applications where a more compact pin is appropriate.

Keep them in the fitting bag for the smaller work.

LARGE PUSH PINS

The Large version provides an option for compatible larger flange bolt-hole configurations.

Same basic purpose.

Different working size.

Small and Large—because one tool doesn’t fit every flange.

Always verify pin dimensions and compatibility with the flange before use.

Durable Construction

Flange pins aren’t tools that live an easy life.

They’re carried in toolboxes.

Dropped.

Handled with dirty gloves.

Moved from one spool to another.

Used in fabrication shops.

Taken into refineries.

Carried through shutdowns.

And expected to work again on the next flange.

The Næxon Push Pins are constructed from durable, high-quality materials designed for repeated use in demanding working environments.

They’re tools.

They’re supposed to work.

Black Industrial Finish

The Næxon Push Pins feature a black finish that gives the tools a clean, professional industrial appearance.

The straightforward design fits naturally alongside the levels, squares, tape measures, flange tools, and fitting equipment already in a pipefitter’s toolbox.

Nothing flashy.

Just a purpose-built tool designed around flange work.

Versatile Flange Compatibility

The Small and Large Push Pins are designed to work across a range of compatible flange sizes and bolt-hole configurations.

That versatility makes them useful for pipefitters who regularly move between different piping systems and flange setups.

Instead of being tied to one specific job, a good set of flange pins can become part of the everyday fitting kit.

Always verify that the selected pin size properly fits the bolt hole and application before loading or using the tool.

Built for Pipefitters

There are tools everybody on the jobsite understands.

Then there are tools that immediately tell you what somebody does for a living.

Flange pins belong in the second category.

If you’re fitting pipe, flange orientation isn’t an occasional problem.

It’s part of the trade.

You might be fitting a spool on a table in the morning and working inside a pipe rack that afternoon.

Different location.

Same requirement.

The flange has to be right.

Næxon Push Pins are designed for the craftsmen responsible for making sure it is.

Næxon Expert Guide: Why Two-Hole a Flange?

When two flanges mate together, the bolt-hole orientation needs to correspond correctly.

If a flange is welded into position with incorrect rotation, the mistake can create problems when the piping system is assembled.

Two-hole flange alignment uses two bolt holes as reference points to help establish flange orientation.

The fitter can position the pins and use appropriate measuring or leveling methods to verify alignment before the flange is permanently welded into position.

It’s one of those operations where a few minutes spent getting the fit-up right can prevent a much bigger problem later.

Why Low Clearance Matters

A fabrication shop gives you room.

The field doesn’t always cooperate.

Pipe racks get crowded.

Equipment gets close.

Existing piping gets in the way.

Structural steel ends up exactly where you wish it wasn’t.

A low-profile flange tool reduces unnecessary obstruction around the work and can make alignment easier when space is limited.

That’s why clearance isn’t just a design detail.

On the right job, it’s the feature that lets you use the tool.

Shop Fabrication

In a fabrication shop, speed and repeatability matter.

Fit flange.

Check orientation.

Tack.

Move to the next spool.

When multiple flange assemblies are being fabricated throughout a shift, dedicated alignment pins help streamline the process.

Keep the Small and Large sets with your fitting tools so the appropriate size is ready when the flange changes.

Field Installation

Field fit-up is a different world.

Nothing is perfectly positioned.

Access can be terrible.

You’re working around existing equipment.

And the flange still has to line up.

The compact design of the Næxon Push Pins makes them easy to carry with the rest of your fitting tools while giving you a dedicated solution for compatible flange alignment work.

Refinery.

Pipeline.

Power plant.

Fabrication shop.

Industrial construction.

Wherever pipe gets fitted, flange orientation matters.

Made for Shutdowns & Turnarounds

A shutdown isn’t the place to waste time searching for the right fitting tool.

Crews are working against schedules.

Spools are moving.

Welders are waiting.

Equipment needs to go back online.

Small tools that simplify repeated operations become valuable fast.

The Næxon Push Pins are compact enough to live in the fitting bag and straightforward enough to use without turning flange alignment into another project.

Grab them. Set them. Verify the flange. Move on.

User-Friendly by Design

Some tools need instructions.

Flange pins shouldn’t.

The Næxon Push Pins are designed around straightforward operation.

Select the appropriate size.

Insert into compatible flange bolt holes.

Establish your alignment reference.

Verify the flange using the appropriate fitting method and tools.

That’s it.

The craft comes from the fitter.

The tool just helps you do the job.

Small vs. Large: Which Size Do You Need?

The correct size depends on the flange bolt-hole dimensions and the specific application.

Choose the Small Push Pins for compatible smaller bolt-hole configurations.

Choose the Large Push Pins for compatible larger bolt-hole configurations.

Pipefitters who regularly work across multiple flange sizes may benefit from keeping both sizes available.

Before use, verify that the selected pin engages the bolt hole correctly and is appropriate for the intended application.

Built for the Fitting Bag

A pipefitter’s bag gets heavy fast.

Tape.

Level.

Square.

Wraparound.

Markers.

Wedges.

Flange tools.

Sockets.

Layout equipment.

You don’t need another oversized tool taking up half the bag.

The Næxon Push Pins are designed to provide a compact flange-alignment solution that fits naturally into an existing tool setup.

Small tool.

Specific purpose.

That’s usually the kind of tool that earns its place.
