It features a 1\/4-20 thread size with a 1 inch thread length and a maximum plunger diameter of 0.118 inches. The plunger projects 3\/16 inches and delivers 3 pounds of initial end force, increasing to 13 pounds of final end force under full compression. Both the body and nose are constructed from steel with a black finish. This part is sold individually and is commonly installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assemblers working with jigs, fixtures, and tooling components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 57005XG is suited for use in light industrial and precision mechanical applications where repeatable positioning or detent action is required. Typical install scenarios include machine tool fixtures, panel assemblies, and component alignment systems where a spring-loaded contact point is needed. The standard plunger length type and compact body length of 1 inch make it practical for tight-tolerance assemblies. No locking element is present, making removal and adjustment straightforward during setup or maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4-20 thread size with 1 inch thread length for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 pounds initial end force and 13 pounds final end force for controlled spring resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.118 inch maximum plunger diameter with 3\/16 inch projection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel body and steel nose construction with black finish for durability and corrosion resistance in light-duty environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo locking element for tool-free adjustment and easy repositioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/64 inch hex drive for precise installation torque control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded spring plunger for use in any application requiring a 1\/4-20 tapped hole and standard plunger geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the plunger into a pre-tapped 1\/4-20 hole using a 5\/64 inch hex key. Ensure the mating assembly is depressurized or de-energized before installation in any active mechanical or pneumatic system. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can damage the thread engagement or affect spring preload performance. Follow applicable machinery safety standards and lockout procedures when servicing assemblies containing spring plungers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.118 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13 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: 5\/64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: 57005XG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51701208449330,"sku":"57005XG","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/207f1ed3b445d167f896e0af1d4f370f.jpg?v=1788399879","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-57005xg-threaded-spring-plunger-1-4-20-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
