Gibraltar MSW10-4FSL-PT-G Threaded Spring Plunger M6 X 1

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR MSW10-4FSL-PT-G is a short-type threaded spring plunger with a steel body and steel nose, designed for controlled-force positioning and indexing applications in mechanical assemblies. It features an M6 x 1.00 thread size with a 16 mm thread length, a maximum plunger diameter of 3.02 mm, and a 4 mm projection. A locking element is integrated into the body to prevent the plunger from backing out under vibration or repeated cycling. This part is installed by mechanical assemblers, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians working on fixtures, jigs, and machine components.

This spring plunger is suited for light-duty positioning and detent applications in industrial equipment, tooling fixtures, and precision assemblies. The short plunger length profile makes it appropriate for installations where space behind the mounting surface is limited. The steel body and nose construction provide durability in metal-to-metal contact environments. It is sold as a single unit and is well-suited for low-volume repair or replacement as well as new tooling builds.

Key Features

• M6 x 1.00 thread size with 16 mm thread length for standard metric fastening
• 3.02 mm maximum plunger diameter with 4 mm projection
• Steel body and steel nose construction for durability in metal contact applications
• Integrated locking element prevents backing out under vibration
• Short plunger length type for space-constrained installations
• Initial end force of 0.14 kg and final end force of 1.59 kg for light-duty positioning

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install spring plunger for metric-threaded positioning and detent applications in industrial fixtures, jigs, and machine assemblies requiring an M6 x 1.00 thread form.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified mechanical technicians or toolmakers using standard metric hex or spanner tooling appropriate for M6 fasteners. De-energize or lock out any powered equipment before servicing components in the assembly. Apply thread-locking compound sparingly if additional retention is needed beyond the integrated locking element, as over-application can interfere with plunger movement. Verify plunger projection and end force values are appropriate for the detent load before final assembly.
