Jergens 36107 Tangless Square Spring Locating Stop

Product Description

The JERGENS 36107 is a tangless square spring locating stop designed for precision workpiece positioning in fixturing and tooling applications. The tangless design eliminates the protruding tang found on standard locating stops, allowing flush or near-flush mounting in confined fixture layouts. The stop body measures 15/16 inches wide by 11/16 inches long with a 3/16-inch base thickness. A 1/8-inch stroke length and consistent 10-pound end force throughout the travel range make this stop suitable for repeatable part registration under moderate clamping loads. The stop head measures 3/4 inches wide by 7/8 inches tall. Weight is 0.2 pounds.

This locating stop is used in machining fixtures, welding jigs, assembly fixtures, and other workholding setups where accurate and repeatable part location is required. The spring-loaded mechanism allows the stop head to retract when a workpiece is loaded and return to the locating position under spring pressure. The 21/32-inch distance between mounting hole centers and the 0.35-inch by 0.14-inch mounting slot dimensions accommodate standard fixture plate layouts in both light manufacturing and precision machining environments.

Key Features

• Tangless design allows installation in tight fixture geometries without protruding tang interference
• Consistent 10-pound end force at initial, mid, and final stroke positions for repeatable locating pressure
• 1/8-inch stroke length with spring return for automatic positioning after workpiece load
• Zinc aluminum alloy body with low carbon steel stop head for corrosion resistance and wear durability
• Mounting slots measure 0.35 inches long by 0.14 inches wide for adjustable positioning on fixture plates
• Compact body at 15/16 inches wide by 11/16 inches long suits space-constrained fixture designs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for standard spring locating stop applications in fixturing and tooling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by toolmakers or fixture builders using standard hand tools. Power down or de-energize any automated fixturing equipment before replacing or installing locating stops. Verify mounting slot alignment and fastener engagement before applying workpiece loads. Do not exceed the rated end force by shimming or preloading beyond the designed stroke range.
