It features a 1\/2-13 thread size with a 13\/16 inch thread length and a maximum plunger diameter of 0.248 inches. The plunger delivers an initial end force of 1.7 pounds and a final end force of 8.5 pounds, providing consistent spring-loaded pressure for repeatable positioning. A locking element is included to secure the plunger in place once installed. The steel body ensures durability in demanding industrial environments, while the Delrin nose reduces friction and wear on mating surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis spring plunger is suited for use in machine tooling, fixture building, jig assembly, and general industrial component positioning. Its short plunger length and compact profile make it appropriate for applications with limited clearance. It is installed by machinists, toolmakers, and mechanical assembly technicians. The locking element feature makes it especially useful in high-vibration environments where plunger migration is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-13 thread size with 13\/16 inch thread length for standard tapped-hole installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShort plunger projection of 1\/4 inch for low-clearance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInitial end force of 1.7 pounds and final end force of 8.5 pounds for consistent indexing pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel body construction for durability in industrial service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDelrin nose material minimizes friction and surface wear on mating components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated locking element prevents plunger from backing out under vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard threaded spring plunger for use in any tapped 1\/2-13 hole requiring short-projection, spring-loaded indexing or positioning retention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the plunger into a pre-tapped 1\/2-13 hole using an appropriate wrench or hex tool on the body. Ensure the mating hole is clean and free of debris before installation. The locking element should be engaged after the plunger is set to the desired depth to prevent movement during operation. Do not overtighten, as excess torque can damage the plunger body or deform the locking element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-13\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.248 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Short\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.7 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.5 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: Delrin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\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: SWN10-8AFS-PT-G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691346034994,"sku":"SWN10-8AFS-PT-G","price":18.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0d04b45b1e7a35fb08ce12065ed357ab.jpg?v=1788283560","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-swn10-8afs-pt-g-threaded-spring-plunger-1-2-13","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
