Installation Notes

Plunger wrenches are typically used by machinists and toolroom technicians during fixture setup or maintenance. Ensure the mating plunger and housing threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Apply only the torque required to seat the plunger properly; do not overtighten, as this can damage the plunger body or housing threads. No power source is required for use of this tool.
