It features an 8-36 thread size, a steel body with a steel ball measuring 0.093 inches in diameter, and a maximum ball reach of 0.025 inches. The initial end force is 0.50 pounds, with a final end force of 1.25 pounds. A locking element is incorporated to secure the plunger in place after installation. The black finish and purple color code aid in identification during assembly. This component is typically installed by machinists, toolmakers, and mechanical assemblers working on fixtures, jigs, and precision equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 10004B is suited for light-force detent and positioning work in manufacturing fixtures, automation equipment, and machine tooling. Its compact 0.3438-inch body length makes it appropriate for tight-clearance installations where space is limited. The steel construction handles the demands of industrial environments where repeated cycling is expected.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-36 thread size for direct threaded installation into tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel body and steel ball for durability in industrial applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.093-inch ball diameter with 0.025-inch maximum ball reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.50-pound initial end force and 1.25-pound final end force for light detent applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated locking element to hold position after adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack finish with purple color code for quick part identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard threaded ball plunger for use in fixtures, jigs, machine tooling, and automation assemblies requiring an 8-36 threaded detent component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a tapped 8-36 hole in the mating component. Use the appropriate hex key or driver to thread the plunger in and torque only to the point where the locking element engages, without over-driving. Ensure the bore is clean and free of debris before installation. Power down or de-energize any automated equipment before servicing assemblies that include this component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-36\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.093 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3438 inches (11\/32 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Ball Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.025 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.50 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: Purple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIBRALTAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10004B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51715194093874,"sku":"10004B","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e8e55c1baa843e0b3a9bc58b5ecfff50_b798b084-8e6a-4910-b2f0-d585d293f69f.jpg?v=1788510396","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-10004b-threaded-ball-plunger-8-36-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
