Gibraltar IPG-102ss-G Lockout Indexing Plunger M16x1.5

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR IPG-102ss-G is a Style B lockout indexing plunger designed for precise positioning and locking in industrial and mechanical assemblies. Featuring an M16x1.5 threaded body with a 23mm thread length and an 8mm plunger diameter, this plunger holds components at fixed indexed positions and requires deliberate actuation to disengage — a critical function in jigs, fixtures, and machine guarding applications. Constructed from stainless steel throughout, it resists corrosion and wear in demanding environments. The knob handle provides tool-free operation. Overall length is 77mm with a 26mm body length and an 8mm plunger projection.

This indexing plunger is suited for use in manufacturing fixtures, automation equipment, machine tool setups, and industrial positioning systems where reliable, repeatable part location is required. The lockout feature prevents unintended plunger retraction, making it appropriate for safety-critical or high-cycle applications. It ships as a single unit and includes a lock nut for secure installation into threaded mounting holes.

Key Features

• Lockout plunger style prevents accidental retraction without deliberate release
• Style B body — 26mm body length, 77mm overall length
• M16x1.5 thread with 23mm thread length for deep thread engagement
• 8mm plunger diameter with 8mm projection
• Initial end force 15 N, final end force 35 N for positive indexing feel
• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in harsh environments
• Includes lock nut — 19mm across flats, 10mm nut height

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or upgrade for M16x1.5 threaded indexing plunger applications requiring a Style B lockout knob configuration in industrial fixtures and positioning equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the plunger body into a prepared M16x1.5 tapped hole to the specified thread engagement depth. Secure the included lock nut against the mounting surface to prevent loosening under vibration. Ensure the mounting plate or housing thickness accommodates the 23mm thread length. Power down or de-energize any associated machinery before servicing or replacing positioning hardware.
