The steel body and steel nose provide durability in industrial and machine-tool environments. With a thread size of 8-36 and a body length of 0.437 inches, this compact plunger is engineered where tight space constraints require a short-body design. An integrated locking element secures the plunger in position once installed. Initial end force is 1.5 pounds and final end force is 4.7 pounds, making it suitable for light detent and retention applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis spring plunger is used in precision mechanical assemblies where controlled resistance and repeatable positioning are required. Typical applications include machine tooling fixtures, jigs, gauge housings, and small mechanical enclosures that require a threaded retention device. The stubby profile makes it well suited for thin-wall housings or blind threaded holes with limited depth. Machinists, toolmakers, and mechanical assembly technicians commonly specify this component in production or maintenance environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStubby plunger length type for installations with limited thread depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-36 thread size for fine-thread engagement in small-diameter bores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel body and steel nose for strength and wear resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated locking element to prevent loosening under vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.5 pound initial end force and 4.7 pound final end force for light detent applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 0.052 inch plunger projection suitable for low-clearance assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard threaded spring plunger for use in any threaded bore accepting an 8-36 fastener thread, typically found in precision fixtures, jigs, and mechanical enclosures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or mechanical assembly technicians using a hex key or appropriate driver matched to the plunger body. Thread the plunger into a pre-tapped 8-36 hole and torque only to manufacturer-specified values for the application. Ensure the bore is clean and free of debris before installation to allow smooth plunger travel. The locking element should be engaged fully to prevent backing out under vibration or repeated cycling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-36\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.437 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.437 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stubby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.07 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.052 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: 4.7 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: 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: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: SW10-2SP-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690884825394,"sku":"SW10-2SP-G","price":31.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/db9dc064fbc866102d7f53c3f8f376a6.jpg?v=1788276971","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-sw10-2sp-g-threaded-spring-plunger-8-36","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
