The plunger features a 1\/4-28 thread size with a 1 inch thread length and a steel body finished in black. The plunger nose diameter measures 0.118 inches with a 3\/16 inch projection. An integrated locking element secures the plunger in place after installation, preventing loosening from vibration. Initial end force is 3 pounds and final end force is 13 pounds, providing a firm, controlled spring action suited for light-duty positioning work. Machinists, toolmakers, and mechanical assemblers commonly install this type of hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis spring plunger is suited for use in jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and general industrial assemblies where repeatable detent positioning is required. The 1\/4-28 unified fine thread engages standard tapped holes in steel, aluminum, or plastic substrates. The black finish provides basic corrosion resistance for typical shop environments. The locking element eliminates the need for thread-locking compound in most applications, saving time during assembly and future servicing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4-28 thread size with 1 inch thread length for standard tapped-hole installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.118 inch plunger nose diameter with 3\/16 inch projection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 pound initial end force and 13 pound final end force for controlled detent action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel body and steel nose material for durability in industrial environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated locking element prevents back-out without thread-locking compound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack finish for basic corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/64 inch hex size for installation with a hex key\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard threaded spring plunger for use in any application requiring a 1\/4-28 tapped hole with a 1 inch thread engagement depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall using a 5\/64 inch hex key; do not overtighten, as excessive torque can damage the locking element or distort the body. Ensure the mating tapped hole meets the 1\/4-28 thread specification and is free of debris before installation. The locking element engages upon full thread engagement and does not require additional thread-locking adhesive under normal conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-28\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\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 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\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\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/64 inch\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\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: 57006G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694746173746,"sku":"57006G","price":18.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/42538ccc73a5e558154a507f9fb9ab08_5fd10504-81fa-41be-83a5-a32ac96698a3.jpg?v=1788327974","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-57006g-threaded-spring-plunger-1-4-28-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
