The body is machined from stainless steel for corrosion resistance, while the ball itself is made from Delrin acetal for low friction and smooth operation. The plunger body measures 0.5 inches in diameter and 1.218 inches in length. Initial end force is 4 pounds and final end force is 9 pounds, making it well suited for light-duty positioning tasks that require consistent, repeatable detent action. This part weighs approximately 0.04 pounds. It is typically installed by machinists, tool-and-die technicians, or maintenance mechanics working on fixtures, jigs, and machine assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePress fit ball plungers of this type are used across a range of industrial and trade applications including fixture tooling, pneumatic and hydraulic panel assemblies, sheet metal fabrication equipment, and general mechanical assemblies where a spring-loaded detent is needed. The stainless steel body makes this plunger appropriate for environments where moisture, mild chemicals, or washdown conditions are present. With no flange and no locking element, this is a straightforward press-in installation into a pre-drilled through-hole or blind bore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel body provides corrosion resistance in wet or harsh environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelrin acetal ball delivers low-friction, smooth detent engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 pound initial end force and 9 pound final end force for light-duty positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.438 inch ball diameter with a maximum ball reach of 0.161 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo flange and no locking element for a clean, flush press-in installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact form factor at 0.5 inches diameter and 1.218 inches length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style or aftermarket replacement press fit ball plunger for mechanical fixtures, jigs, and assemblies requiring a 0.5 inch body diameter press-fit detent component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by pressing the plunger body into a matched-diameter through-hole or blind bore using an arbor press or similar controlled-force tool. Ensure the bore is clean, within tolerance, and free of burrs before pressing to avoid damaging the stainless steel body. No adhesive or thread engagement is required. Always de-energize or lock out any associated machinery before servicing or replacing detent plungers in live assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.218 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.438 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Ball Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.161 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 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: Delrin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlange\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 0.04 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: 10626SS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51717085757746,"sku":"10626SS","price":25.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/28d1fa1c664df20b995836e41633ff53_588ecd8c-d08f-4dcc-8f54-46e79122c1de.jpg?v=1788535478","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-10626ss-press-fit-ball-plunger-0-5-in-stainless","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
