Threaded at 3\/8-16, it features a maximum plunger diameter of 0.25 inches and a Delrin knob handle for a firm, tool-free grip. The plunger delivers an initial end force of 0.25 pounds and a final end force of 2 pounds, making it well-suited for light-duty indexing and locking tasks. The body is constructed from stainless steel with a black finish for corrosion resistance and a clean appearance in service panels and fabricated assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plunger is commonly installed in light industrial equipment, HVAC enclosures, electrical panel assemblies, and mechanical fixtures where a hand-adjustable locking mechanism is needed. The locking knob design allows technicians to set and hold plunger position without additional tooling. It is installed by threading into a 3\/8-16 tapped hole and is suitable for both production and field-service applications where repeated adjustment is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 thread size for standard tapped-hole installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDelrin locking knob provides tool-free hand adjustment and positive hold\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInitial end force of 0.25 pounds with final end force of 2 pounds for light-duty indexing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction with black finish for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact body length of 0.94 inches suits space-constrained assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlunger projection of 0.18 inches for shallow-engagement applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct installation component for any assembly using a 3\/8-16 tapped hole requiring a locking knob handle plunger with a 0.25-inch maximum plunger diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the SDKL38-G into a properly tapped 3\/8-16 hole by hand or with a suitable wrench on the hex flat. Power down or de-energize any equipment before servicing panels or assemblies where this plunger is being installed or replaced. Do not overtighten the body into the tapped hole, as this may damage the thread engagement or restrict plunger travel. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines and relevant codes for mechanical fastener installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Locking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.94 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\/Shoulder\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead and Shoulder Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.65 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnob Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Delrin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\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\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: SDKL38-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51720839070002,"sku":"SDKL38-G","price":28.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b5d2c78af7557e440e01bc030a4aa3e5.jpg?v=1788569760","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-sdkl38-g-locking-knob-handle-plunger-3-8-16","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
