Gibraltar LL-6-G Locking L Handle Plunger 5/8-11

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR LL-6-G is a locking L handle plunger designed for indexing, locating, and positioning applications in industrial and mechanical assemblies. The plunger features a 5/8-11 thread size with a thread length of 1.07 inches and a body length of 1.88 inches. The spring-loaded steel plunger delivers an initial end force of 0.75 pounds and a final end force of 2.5 pounds, providing reliable retention under load. The L-shaped handle allows for tool-free engagement and release. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians install this type of hardware on fixtures, jigs, machine guards, and positioning equipment.

This plunger is suited for light-duty to medium-duty fixture and machine tool applications where a positive locking position is required. The compact body fits standard threaded bores and mounting holes in fabricated frames, panels, and welded assemblies. The steel construction handles typical shop-floor conditions including contact with coolants and cutting fluids. It is sold and shipped as a single unit.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the plunger body into a prepared 5/8-11 tapped hole by hand or with a wrench on the hex flats. Ensure the mating bore is clean and free of debris before installation. Disengage the locking mechanism and verify plunger travel is unobstructed before returning equipment to service. Consult the equipment manufacturer's documentation for any torque or retention requirements specific to the host assembly.
