The unit features an M8 x 1.25 threaded body machined from steel, with a steel ball that protrudes up to 0.059 inches at maximum reach. The ball measures 0.196 inches in diameter and delivers an initial end force of 3.37 pounds, increasing to a final end force of 6.75 pounds under full compression. The body length is 0.63 inches. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians install this type of component in fixtures, jigs, slides, and equipment panels where repeatable tactile engagement is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ball plunger is suited for use in manufacturing fixtures, machine tool slides, assembly jigs, and similar industrial hardware applications. The M8 x 1.25 metric thread allows installation into standard tapped holes in steel, aluminum, or other structural materials. The all-steel construction makes it appropriate for environments where plastic-bodied plungers are not adequate. It ships individually and is sold as a single unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM8 x 1.25 metric thread for installation in standard tapped bores\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel body and steel ball for durability in industrial environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBall diameter of 0.196 inches (5.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInitial end force of 3.37 pounds (15.00 N), final end force of 6.75 pounds (30.00 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum ball reach of 0.059 inches (1.50 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo locking element, allowing straightforward threaded installation and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard metric threaded ball plunger for use in any application requiring an M8 x 1.25 tapped hole, including industrial fixtures, jigs, slides, and mechanical positioning assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the plunger into a pre-tapped M8 x 1.25 hole using an appropriate wrench or hex tool on the body flats. Ensure the mating bore is clean and free of debris before installation. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can damage the ball seat or distort the body. This component does not require power isolation prior to installation but should be installed before final assembly of surrounding mechanical components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M8 x 1.25\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.63 inches (16.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.196 inches (5.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Ball Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.059 inches (1.50 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.37 pounds (15.00 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.75 pounds (30.00 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: MSW10-5B-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723485118770,"sku":"MSW10-5B-G","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2e43485194c63e9a64c94397130e6bf9.jpg?v=1788605433","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-msw10-5b-g-threaded-ball-plunger-m8-x-1-25","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
