It features an M12 x 1.75 threaded body machined from stainless steel, with a stainless steel ball measuring 0.315 inches in diameter. The plunger delivers an initial end force of 16.86 pounds and a final end force of 25.85 pounds, providing reliable spring-loaded retention. With a body length of 0.866 inches and a maximum ball reach of 0.098 inches, this compact plunger fits tight-clearance installations. It is installed by machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians in production machinery, fixtures, and precision assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis ball plunger is suited for use in machine tool fixtures, jigs, automated equipment, and positioning mechanisms where repeatable detent action is required. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments exposed to moisture, mild corrosives, or wash-down conditions. It is sold individually and is compatible with any threaded bore tapped to M12 x 1.75 specifications. No locking element is included, so thread-locking compound may be applied if retention under vibration is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM12 x 1.75 threaded body for direct installation into tapped bores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel body and ball for corrosion resistance in demanding environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInitial end force of 16.86 pounds and final end force of 25.85 pounds for consistent detent performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBall diameter of 0.315 inches with a maximum ball reach of 0.098 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact body length of 0.866 inches suits tight-clearance assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo locking element — compatible with thread-locking compound when vibration resistance is required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned to fit any threaded bore tapped to M12 x 1.75 specifications.

Ensure the mating bore is clean and correctly tapped to M12 x 1.75 before threading in the plunger. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can deform the ball seat or restrict ball travel. If the application involves significant vibration, apply a suitable thread-locking compound to the threads prior to installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M12 x 1.75\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16.86 pounds (75.00 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25.85 pounds (115.00 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.315 inches (8.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Ball Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.098 inches (2.50 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.866 inches (22.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: Purple\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: MSSW10-8BH-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694417346866,"sku":"MSSW10-8BH-G","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/55b5ee238003862644a3089d06b84424_a8da94c7-5c41-4337-b662-dfa438a88469.jpg?v=1788324321","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-mssw10-8bh-g-threaded-ball-plunger-m12-x-1-75","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
