The body and nose are both stainless steel, making this plunger suitable for environments where corrosion resistance matters. It features a 3\/8-16 thread with a 0.625 inches thread length and a maximum plunger diameter of 0.186 inches. The stubby nose projection of 0.11 inches delivers a compact travel profile. Initial end force is 4.5 pounds and final end force is 18.5 pounds, providing a firm, predictable spring response. Machinists, tool and die technicians, and mechanical assemblers install these in fixtures, jigs, and equipment panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis spring plunger fits applications where a low-profile, threaded positioning element is required in a tapped hole. The 3\/8-16 thread is a standard unified coarse thread, common in steel and aluminum workpiece construction. The stubby plunger length type suits tight-clearance assemblies where full-length plungers would interfere with adjacent components. Typical uses include part registration in machining fixtures, detent positioning in hinged panels, and indexing in rotary assemblies. The stainless steel construction supports use in wash-down environments and light chemical exposure scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStubby nose profile with 0.11 inches projection for tight-clearance installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel body and nose for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 unified coarse thread, 0.625 inches thread length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4.5 pounds initial end force and 18.5 pounds final end force for firm spring response\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum plunger diameter of 0.186 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo locking element — free-spinning installation for easy torque adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard OEM-style threaded spring plunger for any mechanical assembly or fixture accepting a 3\/8-16 tapped hole. No specific model compatibility data was provided by the manufacturer for this SKU.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall into a clean, properly tapped 3\/8-16 through or blind hole using an appropriate hex key or wrench on the body flats. Ensure the mating hole depth accommodates the full body length of 0.625 inches without bottoming out the plunger nose. No locking element is present, so apply thread-locking compound if vibration is a concern in the application. De-energize or depressurize any assembly before servicing spring plungers in active fixture or equipment applications.\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\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.186 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.11 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stubby\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18.5 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: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\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: SSW10-6S-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692979749170,"sku":"SSW10-6S-G","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/81c42b0b779ad464a0cd32496a3ffccb.jpg?v=1788305774","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-ssw10-6s-g-threaded-spring-plunger-3-8-16","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
