Jergens 36106 Tang Square Spring Locating Stop

Product Description

The JERGENS 36106 is a tang square spring locating stop designed for precision workholding and fixturing applications. It features a 2-inch body width, a body length of 1.375 inches, and a 0.25-inch stroke length, with a middle end force of 32 pounds. The stop head measures 1.25 inches wide, 1.5 inches tall, and 0.375 inches thick. Constructed with a zinc aluminum alloy body and a low carbon steel stop, the 36106 delivers reliable spring-loaded positioning for repeated part location in machining and assembly setups. Licensed machinists, tool and die makers, and fixture builders are the typical installers.

The JERGENS 36106 is suited for use in machining fixtures, jigs, and production tooling where repeatable part registration is required. The tang-style profile allows the stop to seat securely within a mounting slot, and the spring mechanism provides consistent locating force across repeated load and release cycles. The 1.5-inch distance between mounting hole centers allows straightforward integration into standard fixture plates and tooling blocks in both light and medium-duty manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• Compact 2-inch body width fits standard tooling plate layouts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for standard spring locating stop applications in machining fixtures and production tooling where a tang square profile is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or tooling engineers during fixture build or maintenance. Power down and lock out any associated machine before servicing or replacing a locating stop in an active fixture. Use appropriate hand tools to seat the tang into the mounting slot and secure through the designated mounting holes. Verify spring travel and stop head clearance before returning the fixture to production use.
