With a 6-32 thread size and 17\/32 inch thread length, this plunger installs directly into a tapped hole without additional hardware. The steel body and steel nose deliver consistent performance under repeated cycling. An initial end force of 1.5 pounds and a final end force of 4.5 pounds make it suitable for low-force detent and positioning tasks. The black finish provides a degree of corrosion resistance for general shop and industrial environments. Machinists, toolmakers, and mechanical assembly technicians are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 57001XG is used in jigs, fixtures, dies, and general mechanical assemblies where a spring-loaded plunger is needed to hold or index a component in position. The compact 17\/32 inch body length fits tightly spaced assemblies. The 0.045 inch maximum plunger diameter and 1\/16 inch projection keep the plunger profile minimal, making this part well suited for fine-pitch positioning work where clearance is limited. It is sold individually and carries a minimum order quantity of one unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-32 thread for direct installation into standard tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.5 pound initial end force and 4.5 pound final end force for light-duty detent applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel body and steel nose construction for durability under repeated cycling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e17\/32 inch thread length and body length for compact assembly fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/16 inch plunger projection keeps interference minimal in tight clearance designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish for general corrosion resistance in shop environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard threaded spring plunger for use in tapped 6-32 holes in jigs, fixtures, dies, and mechanical assemblies requiring light-force indexing or positioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a tapped 6-32 hole of sufficient depth to accept the 17\/32 inch thread length. Use a hex wrench sized to the 1\/16 inch hex to drive and seat the plunger body; avoid over-torquing, which can distort the thread or damage the plunger mechanism. Ensure the mating bore or detent feature is aligned with the plunger projection axis before final tightening. De-energize or immobilize any powered equipment before servicing assemblies that contain spring plungers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.045 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose 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\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: 57001XG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693574455602,"sku":"57001XG","price":39.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ec90f172ab1d70392e4693e718fb488a.jpg?v=1788314285","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-57001xg-threaded-spring-plunger-6-32-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
