The pivot, designed to be inserted through holes in two components, consists of a metal pin (2) and a spring-loaded plastic locking member that fits over it and holds it in place. The pin has two or more lengthwise grooves (23) in its shank, while the locking member has a head (32) and three arms (33) ending in feet (331) which are deployed into a locking position when the pin is inserted through it, with the arms located in the grooves. In a variant of the design the locking member can be in the form of a wire spring.
