It features a 5\/8-11 threaded body machined from stainless steel, with a stainless steel ball measuring 0.375 inches in diameter. The ball travel delivers an initial end force of 4.5 pounds and a final end force of 9 pounds, providing consistent, repeatable resistance. A built-in locking element secures the plunger in place once set, preventing loosening under vibration or repeated cycling. Machinists, tool and die technicians, and maintenance mechanics install this type of hardware in jigs, fixtures, and precision assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ball plunger is suited for use in industrial tooling, fixture plates, machine tool components, and automated equipment where controlled spring-loaded detent force is required. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments where corrosion resistance is a priority, including wash-down or high-humidity settings. The 5\/8-11 thread allows installation into standard tapped holes using common hand tools. Body length is 63\/64 inches (0.9844 inches) with a maximum ball reach of 0.096 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8-11 threaded body for installation into standard tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel body and ball for corrosion resistance in demanding environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInitial end force of 4.5 pounds and final end force of 9 pounds for reliable detent action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum ball reach of 0.096 inches provides controlled, precise engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated locking element prevents backing out under vibration or repeated use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact body length of 63\/64 inches fits space-constrained assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 5\/8-11 threaded ball plunger for use in tapped holes in jigs, fixtures, machine tool components, and similar mechanical assemblies requiring spring-loaded detent or positioning hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall using a hex wrench or open-end wrench sized to the body flats into a properly tapped 5\/8-11 hole. Disengage any nearby mechanical or electrical systems before servicing assemblies that contain this plunger. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the locking element or restrict ball movement. Verify ball travel and detent force are correct for the application after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8-11\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 63\/64 inches (0.9844 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Ball Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.096 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\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\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 10116-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51698139857202,"sku":"10116-G","price":17.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e8e55c1baa843e0b3a9bc58b5ecfff50_3a64acf7-6c44-4b2f-8139-78deb6e4726e.jpg?v=1788358338","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-10116-g-threaded-ball-plunger-5-8-11-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
