I'll be ordering some 21-044 pins, 21-100 caps, and 21-163 grommets for a Benchmark Bi-Fold steel door; but I need one more component for the '4th corner' of the door for a total rebuild. I'd call it an "Adjustment Mechanism" as shown on attached photo.

Do you have this item in stock? Let me know please.

Hey Ray. Could you just confirm for me the diameter of the pin and the cap atop the pin? That should help me narrow this down. Thanks.

Hi Bob;
Pin of this 'adjuster' is 1//4' like the 21-044.

Its cap seems to be same diameter as the 21-100 caps (about 0.375-.400")

Also, the cap seems to be permanently affixed to the pin using a solid steel washer.

OK?

Perhaps I can help. The Benchmark threaded adjusting pin is our 21-002. It does use the nylon cap, the 21-100. The nylon cap is forced onto the pin. We added the steel washer under the cap for more strength. The nylon locking device is no longer available, but honestly it isn't that critical in the performance of the door.
