Gibraltar SSWN10-22BP-G Threaded Ball Plunger 8-32

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR SSWN10-22BP-G is a threaded ball plunger designed for use in positioning, indexing, and light-duty detent applications. It features an 8-32 thread size, a stainless steel body, and a nylon ball with a diameter of 0.094 inches. The body length measures 0.344 inches, and the maximum ball reach is 0.025 inches. Initial end force is 0.5 pounds and final end force is 1.25 pounds. A locking element is included to secure the plunger in position after installation. This component is installed by machinists, mechanical assemblers, and maintenance technicians working with jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and light mechanical assemblies.

This ball plunger is suited for use in industrial and commercial applications where a compact, threaded detent or positioning element is required. The nylon ball minimizes surface marring on mating components, making it appropriate for use in precision fixtures, sliding panels, drawer assemblies, and positioning mechanisms where low-force detenting is needed. The stainless steel body provides corrosion resistance in environments subject to moisture or light chemical exposure.

Key Features

• 8-32 thread size for direct threaded installation into tapped holes
• Stainless steel body for corrosion resistance
• Nylon ball minimizes marring on contact surfaces
• 0.094 inch ball diameter with 0.025 inch maximum ball reach

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threaded ball plunger replacement or new installation component for fixtures, jigs, tooling plates, and mechanical assemblies that accept an 8-32 threaded detent plunger.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a tapped 8-32 hole in the mating component. Use an appropriate hex key or driver to thread the plunger to the desired depth before engaging the locking element. Ensure the mating surface and threaded hole are clean and free of debris prior to installation. De-energize or lock out any associated equipment before servicing assemblies that contain this component.
