It features a 3\/8-16 threaded body and a Delrin knob with a black finish, delivering an initial end force of 0.25 pounds and a final end force of 2 pounds. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion in demanding environments. With a body length of 0.94 inches and a plunger projection of 0.18 inches, this plunger is sized for compact panel and fixture installations. Machinists, millwrights, and equipment technicians install this type of hardware in manufacturing, processing, and maintenance settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis locking plunger is suited for use in jigs, fixtures, machine guards, enclosures, and industrial equipment panels where a positive locking position is required. The Delrin knob provides a firm hand grip for repeated adjustment without tooling. Applications include light to moderate retention tasks in both shop-built and OEM equipment assemblies requiring a secure, releasable locking point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLocking plunger design holds position until manually released via the knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 thread size for standard hardware compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInitial end force of 0.25 pounds rising to a final end force of 2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel body construction for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDelrin knob with black finish for comfortable hand operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 0.94-inch body length with 0.18-inch plunger projection for space-constrained installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard locking knob handle plunger for use in jigs, fixtures, enclosures, and industrial equipment panels threaded for 3\/8-16 hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the plunger body into a pre-tapped 3\/8-16 hole in the mating panel or fixture. Ensure the mating bore diameter is appropriate for the 0.25-inch maximum plunger diameter before installation. De-energize or lock out any equipment before servicing adjacent components. Do not overtighten the body into the tapped hole, as this may restrict plunger travel or damage the locking element.\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\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\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\u003ePlunger Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Locking\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 Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.55 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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-PT-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51717497553202,"sku":"SDKL38-PT-G","price":30.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f83e40d5d577e3d073303d7faa65b8ce.jpg?v=1788541549","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-sdkl38-pt-g-locking-knob-plunger-3-8-16","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
