TPT-5 Top Loader Pin Tweezers

Here is a great rescue tool for any Locksmith or property manager who does a lot of repinning.  It is a fairly common mistake to forget to secure a lock plug in a cylinder after rekeying it by leaving the clip or the cap off and then having the plug pull out when you try to remove the key.  Or your plug follower gets snagged and you pull the plug out without following it properly.

In these cases of course all the top pins and springs come gushing out.  Returning them to the top chamber can be a real hassle if you're working with a cylinder that has a staked-on top pin retainer, or worse, a cylinder that is formed out of a single piece of brass.

This magic top loader makes it quick work to return both springs and top pins through the opening for the plug.
