To install, once you’ve pressed a pin out, simply slide the chain pin through with the chamfered end first.

Then using a chain breaking tool, push the link through until it’s almost flush.

You can then snap the part that is sticking out off with a pair of pliers.

If you run a Shimano chain, then carrying a connecting pin is a great way to avoid a very long walk.
