Gibraltar IPG-101ss-G Indexing Plunger M12x1.5 Ss

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR IPG-101ss-G is a lockout knob handle indexing plunger designed for precise positioning and locking in industrial fixtures, machine tooling, and mechanical assemblies. Built from stainless steel for corrosion resistance, this Style B plunger features an M12x1.5 threaded shank with a 17mm thread length and a 6mm plunger diameter. The lockout function prevents unintentional plunger retraction, securing the position until deliberately released. A lock nut is included for additional retention on the mating panel or bracket. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians install this type of component in jigs, fixtures, and adjustment mechanisms requiring repeatable indexed positioning.

This indexing plunger is suited for use in manufacturing environments, industrial equipment panels, and mechanical assemblies where a threaded mount and spring-loaded lockout pin are needed. The M12x1.5 thread and 20mm body length make it compatible with standard metric threaded housings and panels in that size range. It is appropriate for both light-duty and moderate-load applications given its initial end force of 6 newtons and final end force of 14 newtons.

Key Features

• Lockout plunger style prevents accidental retraction until manually released
• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wash-down or humid environments
• M12x1.5 thread with 17mm thread length for standard metric panel mounting
• Includes lock nut for secure panel engagement
• Style B body configuration with 20mm body length and 59mm overall length
• 6mm plunger diameter with 6mm plunger projection

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or upgrade for metric-threaded indexing plunger applications requiring an M12x1.5 threaded shank and lockout knob handle in industrial fixtures and machine tooling assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the plunger shank into a pre-tapped M12x1.5 hole in the mounting panel or fixture body. Secure the included lock nut against the panel surface to prevent rotation during operation. Ensure the mating panel thickness accommodates the 17mm thread length before installing. Power down or de-energize any associated equipment before servicing components in the assembly.
