The plunger features a 1\/4-28 thread size with a 1 inch thread length and a standard-length steel body. The nylon nose provides a non-marring contact point, making it suitable for use against finished surfaces or soft materials. Initial end force is 1 pound with a final end force of 4 pounds, giving technicians and assemblers a predictable, repeatable spring load for locating or retaining components. This part ships as a single unit and is installed by hand or with standard assembly tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis spring plunger is used in light manufacturing, machine building, fixture design, and general mechanical assembly where a spring-loaded positioning or detent function is required. The 1\/4-28 fine thread allows for precise axial positioning when threaded into a tapped hole. The nylon plunger nose suits applications where metal-to-metal contact is undesirable. The 3\/16 inch projection provides the working stroke needed for most standard indexing and light retention tasks in both horizontal and vertical orientations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4-28 fine thread for precise depth adjustment in tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel body provides durable, rigid housing for the spring mechanism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon nose delivers non-marring contact against workpiece surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 pound initial end force and 4 pound final end force for controlled spring load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/16 inch plunger projection with a maximum plunger diameter of 0.118 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo locking element — free-running thread for straightforward installation and adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard threaded spring plunger replacement or new installation for any application requiring a 1\/4-28 tapped hole with a 1 inch thread engagement depth and a non-marring nylon nose contact point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the plunger body into a pre-tapped 1\/4-28 hole using a hex key or appropriate driver on the body flats. Always de-energize or lock out any machine or fixture before servicing spring plungers in automated or powered assemblies. Do not exceed the rated end force by over-compressing the plunger nose, as this can damage the nylon tip or deform the spring. Confirm thread engagement depth against the 1 inch body length before finalizing installation torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.116 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.118 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 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: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 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: SWN10-4Y-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696789848370,"sku":"SWN10-4Y-G","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b47d7ab7806b3b33f49633ad5ab1e26c.jpg?v=1788346225","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-swn10-4y-g-threaded-spring-plunger-1-4-28","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
