Gibraltar 855050-G Tangless Square Spring Locating Stop

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 855050-G is a tangless square spring locating stop designed for precision positioning applications in manufacturing and assembly environments. With a body width of 0.875 inches and a body length of 0.6875 inches, this compact aluminum stop provides a 1/8 inch stroke length and a 10-pound mid-end force. The square stop head measures 3/8 inches wide by 3/8 inches tall, delivering consistent part location and retention. It is typically installed by machinists, toolmakers, and assembly technicians working with fixtures, jigs, and workholding setups requiring repeatable part positioning.

This locating stop is suited for use in machine tool fixtures, assembly jigs, and industrial tooling applications where tangless spring stops are specified. The tangless design eliminates the protruding tang found on standard spring stops, reducing the risk of interference with workpieces or adjacent components. The aluminum body keeps weight low while maintaining structural integrity in moderate-duty cycling applications. The unit ships individually and is compatible with standard locating stop mounting configurations.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for standard spring locating stop mounting configurations in industrial fixtures and tooling assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by toolmakers or fixture technicians during fixture assembly or maintenance. Power down and de-energize any associated automated equipment before servicing locating stops in active production tooling. Use appropriately sized fasteners matched to the mounting slot width of 0.128 inches and verify center-to-center hole spacing before final torque. Do not exceed the rated mid-end force by compressing the stop beyond its specified 1/8 inch stroke length.
