Gibraltar SSW10-14-G Threaded Spring Plunger 1/8 Stainless

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR SSW10-14-G is a standard threaded spring plunger designed for indexing, positioning, and light-duty workholding applications in industrial and mechanical assemblies. The plunger features a 1/8 thread size with a 2-13/32 inch thread length and a maximum plunger diameter of 0.498 inches. It delivers 16 lb of initial end force and 68 lb of final end force, making it suitable for applications that require consistent, repeatable spring tension. The stainless steel body resists corrosion in wash-down or humid environments. This component is installed by machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians working on fixtures, jigs, and precision equipment.

This spring plunger fits into threaded bores machined to 1/8 thread specification. It is used in industrial machinery, fixture plates, assembly tooling, and positioning applications where a retractable nose element is needed to locate or hold workpieces. The 1/2 inch projection provides adequate travel for most standard indexing tasks. The steel nose material handles repeated contact cycles in moderate-duty use. This part ships as a single unit and is intended for direct installation into pre-tapped holes in tooling plates or machine frames.

Key Features

• 1/8 thread size with 2-13/32 inch thread and body length for deep engagement in thick tooling plates
• 16 lb initial end force and 68 lb final end force for reliable spring-loaded positioning
• Maximum plunger diameter of 0.498 inches for consistent fitment in standard bores
• 1/2 inch plunger projection provides adequate travel for typical indexing and locating tasks
• Stainless steel body construction resists corrosion in wash-down and high-humidity environments
• Steel nose material rated for repeated contact cycles in moderate-duty applications

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-installation threaded spring plunger for any fixture, jig, tooling plate, or mechanical assembly with a pre-tapped 1/8 threaded bore and clearance for a 0.498 inch diameter plunger body.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a hex key or spanner sized to the plunger body. Ensure the receiving bore is clean and fully threaded to the correct 1/8 thread specification before installation. De-energize or lock out any machinery before servicing or replacing spring plungers in active fixtures. Do not exceed the rated final end force to avoid deforming the nose or damaging the spring mechanism.
