Blackinton Premium Fire Captain Double Bugle Collar Pins, Silver (J51)

Overview of the Blackinton Captain Bugle Collar Pins | J51

Rank Recognition You Can Trust

When you earn the rank of fire captain, your collar should show it clearly. The Blackinton Captain's Double Bugle Collar Pins in silver deliver that authority with two side-by-side bugles joined by a horizontal bar, the classic fire service styling recognized on the fireground and at formal ceremonies. Stamped as MPN J51, this matched pair wears a bright nickel finish with smooth surfaces and crisp, defined edges.

Built for the Long Shift

Each pin measures 3/4 inch wide by 13/16 inch tall, big enough to read at a glance yet light enough to wear comfortably through a full tour. The clutch-back attachment holds each bugle securely to standard uniform fabric, and the paired design keeps both collar points symmetrical. Fire captains, training officers, and department leadership rely on consistent hardware like the J51 to present a sharp, confident appearance whether they are running an inspection or standing in a dress uniform. Backed by Blackinton, a badge and insignia name trusted since 1852, these pins are built to hold their shine.
