Gibraltar SSW10-3AP-G Threaded Spring Plunger 10-32

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR SSW10-3AP-G is a threaded spring plunger designed for indexing, positioning, and light-duty locking applications in mechanical assemblies. It features a stainless steel body and stainless steel nose, a #10-32 thread size with a 3/4-inch thread length, and a maximum plunger diameter of 0.092 inches. The plunger delivers 1.3 pounds of initial end force and 2.7 pounds of final end force, making it well suited for controlled, repeatable positioning tasks. A built-in locking element holds the plunger in position once set. This component is installed by mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and precision equipment builders.

This spring plunger is used in fixtures, jigs, machine tooling, and light mechanical assemblies where positive, spring-loaded positioning is required. The standard plunger length type and 1/8-inch projection are appropriate for applications where minimal protrusion beyond the mounting surface is needed. It is suitable for both OEM manufacturing environments and field maintenance repairs requiring a compact, corrosion-resistant positioning element.

Key Features

• Thread size #10-32 with 3/4-inch thread length for secure installation into tapped holes
• Stainless steel body and nose material for corrosion resistance
• 1.3-pound initial end force and 2.7-pound final end force for controlled positioning
• Maximum plunger diameter of 0.092 inches for precise fitment
• Built-in locking element to hold plunger position once adjusted
• 1/8-inch plunger projection — standard length type for low-profile applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for mechanical assemblies requiring a #10-32 threaded spring plunger with a stainless steel body and locking element.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a tapped #10-32 hole of sufficient depth to accept the 3/4-inch thread length. Use an appropriate driver or hex tool as specified by the fastener head style — do not overtighten, as this can damage the internal spring mechanism. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of debris before threading the plunger in. Always de-energize or de-pressurize any assembly before servicing spring plunger components.
