Built with a stainless steel body and a nylon nose, this plunger features a 3\/8-16 thread with a body and thread length of 0.625 inches. The plunger projection measures 0.110 inches, and the maximum plunger diameter is 0.186 inches. Initial end force is 1.5 pounds, with a final end force of 5 pounds. This plunger is installed by machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance mechanics in fixtures, jigs, and production tooling where repeatable positioning under low spring force is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis spring plunger fits into threaded bores in machine frames, fixture plates, and tooling blocks. The stubby body length makes it well suited for shallow mounting locations where a standard-length plunger body would not fit. The nylon nose reduces marring on mating surfaces, making it appropriate for use against soft metals, plastics, or finished surfaces. It is commonly used in workholding fixtures, assembly jigs, drawer stops, and light-duty detent applications across manufacturing and industrial maintenance environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel body resists corrosion in wash-down and high-humidity environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNylon nose protects mating surfaces from scoring or galling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStubby body length at 0.625 inches suits shallow threaded mounting locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.5-pound initial end force and 5-pound final end force for light-duty detent and positioning use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 unified coarse thread for straightforward installation with standard tooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo locking element — torque to seat is controlled by the installer per application requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit threaded spring plunger for any application requiring a 3\/8-16 threaded bore with a stubby body length of 0.625 inches. Suitable for fixture plates, tooling blocks, and machine frames where a low-force, non-marring spring plunger is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or maintenance mechanics using a hex key or spanner wrench sized for the plunger body. The receiving bore must be tapped to 3\/8-16 and cleared of chips or debris before threading in the plunger. Do not overtighten — snug the plunger to the specified seat without applying excessive torque, which can distort the body or damage the nylon nose. No locking element is included; use a thread-locking compound if vibration resistance is required for the specific application.\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\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.110 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\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stubby\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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: SSWN10-6SL-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693528285490,"sku":"SSWN10-6SL-G","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/84ebc89a6061a7a6ea733b6e353fb047.jpg?v=1788313682","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-sswn10-6sl-g-threaded-spring-plunger-3-8-16","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
