It features a 6-40 threaded body machined from stainless steel, with a nylon ball measuring 0.078 inches in diameter. The body length is 0.312 inches, and the maximum ball reach is 0.023 inches. Initial end force is 0.5 pounds, with a final end force of 1 pound. The stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance in demanding environments, while the nylon ball provides smooth engagement without marring contact surfaces. This component is typically installed by machinists, tool and die technicians, and precision assembly professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SSWN10-1B-G is suited for use in jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and precision mechanical assemblies where repeatable positioning or light detent action is required. Its compact 6-40 thread size makes it appropriate for small-format applications where space is limited. The low end-force range makes it a practical choice for delicate positioning tasks that require consistent but gentle ball engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-40 thread size for compact, small-format installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel body for corrosion resistance in demanding environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNylon ball reduces surface marring on mating components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.078 inch ball diameter with 0.023 inch maximum ball reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5 lb initial end force and 1 lb final end force for light-duty detent action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo locking element — straightforward threaded installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded ball plunger for use in standard 6-40 threaded holes in jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and precision mechanical assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the plunger body into a properly tapped 6-40 hole using an appropriate hex key or driver. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before installation. Torque the plunger to seat it flush or at the desired protrusion depth without over-driving, as the small thread size is susceptible to damage from excessive force. De-energize or fully disengage any associated mechanical systems before servicing components in the assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-40\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.078 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Ball Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.023 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.312 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: Purple\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 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: SSWN10-1B-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689165783346,"sku":"SSWN10-1B-G","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a19b64542aa92cad5051e177b809b207.jpg?v=1788255481","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-sswn10-1b-g-threaded-ball-plunger-6-40","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
