It features a 5\/16-18 unified coarse thread with a 1 inch thread length and a stainless steel body for corrosion resistance. The plunger nose is steel and projects 3\/16 inch (0.1875 inch) beyond the body face. Initial end force is 3 pounds and final end force is 15 pounds, making it suitable for applications that require a defined engagement feel without a locking element. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians typically install these in jigs, fixtures, and machine components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis spring plunger is used in industrial and trade maintenance settings where repeatable positioning or light retaining force is needed. Common applications include fixture alignment, panel indexing, drawer retention, and equipment assembly work. The stainless steel body makes it a reliable choice in environments with moderate moisture exposure or where mild corrosion resistance is required. It installs into any tapped 5\/16-18 hole and does not require a locking element for standard installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16-18 thread size fits standard tapped holes — no special tooling required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel body provides corrosion resistance in moderate-exposure environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 pounds initial end force and 15 pounds final end force for defined detent engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/16 inch plunger projection (0.1875 inch) for consistent indexing depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo locking element — installs and adjusts with standard hex wrench (0.0937 inch hex size)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard plunger length type for general-purpose mechanical assembly use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-thread spring plunger for any application requiring a 5\/16-18 tapped hole with a 1 inch thread engagement depth in jigs, fixtures, or mechanical assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a properly tapped 5\/16-18 through or blind hole with sufficient depth to accept the 1 inch thread length. Use a hex wrench sized to the 0.0937 inch hex drive to thread the plunger in to the desired engagement depth. Power down or de-energize any equipment before installing or adjusting spring plungers in active assemblies. Do not overtighten — set depth to achieve the desired plunger projection and engagement force per the application requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1875 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.134 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose 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\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0937 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 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: SSW10-5-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51709639754034,"sku":"SSW10-5-G","price":15.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/66a4e7a93a680a485853722e191faaf0_89e10fc2-f15d-4346-92ea-cccb2c1e1b9c.jpg?v=1788458740","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-ssw10-5-g-threaded-spring-plunger-5-16-18","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
