It features an M5x0.8 threaded body with a 0.394-inch thread length and a knurled knob head for manual actuation without tools. The non-locking plunger delivers an initial end force of 0.5 pounds and a final end force of 3 pounds, providing consistent, repeatable spring-loaded resistance. With a maximum plunger diameter of 0.0984 inches and a plunger projection of 0.078 inches, this component is suited for light-duty detent, alignment, and panel-mount positioning tasks. A locking element is included in the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis plunger is used in machine tool fixtures, jigs, enclosures, and control panels where repeatable hand-operated positioning is required. It threads into a tapped M5x0.8 hole and is actuated manually by the knurled knob head. Typical applications include alignment detents on sliding assemblies, panel latches, and lightweight indexing mechanisms. Machinists, mechanical assemblers, and field technicians install this type of component during equipment assembly or scheduled maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-locking plunger type with spring-loaded end force range of 0.5 to 3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnurled knob head allows tool-free manual actuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM5x0.8 thread for installation into standard metric tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocking element included in body design for secure thread retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact body length of 0.470 inches suits space-constrained assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlunger diameter tolerance of +0.000 \/ -0.001 inch for consistent fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement or original-install knob handle plunger for machinery, fixtures, jigs, and enclosures with standard M5x0.8 tapped mounting holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the body into a pre-tapped M5x0.8 hole using the knurled knob head; no special tools are required for standard installations. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before installation to avoid thread damage. De-energize or lock out any powered equipment before servicing assemblies that contain this plunger. Do not exceed the rated final end force by applying additional external load to the plunger tip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M5x0.8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.394 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.470 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\/Shoulder\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.394 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.355 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.157 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead and Shoulder Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.236 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0984 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.630 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.078 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 \/ -0.001 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Locking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnob Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Knurled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: MKNL-0-PT-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693396492594,"sku":"MKNL-0-PT-G","price":46.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cf16ebb7eaaeca7d38bb64c70f9181d6_216fd058-e5fb-4e83-91cf-1e03612e769e.jpg?v=1788311741","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-mknl-0-pt-g-knob-handle-plunger-m5x0-8","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
