It features a 5\/8-11 thread, a 0.375-inch steel ball diameter, and a 0.984-inch body length. The B62N delivers an initial end force of 9 pounds and a final end force of 18 pounds, providing a defined force range suited to indexing fixtures, jigs, and positioning mechanisms. A locking element is included to secure the plunger in the threaded bore and prevent back-out under vibration or repeated cycling. As one of the smallest and lightest spring-loaded devices in its class, it fits where space is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe B62N is used in industrial, tooling, and machine assembly applications where a compact, threaded spring plunger must hold or index a moving component at a set position. Typical installations include fixture plates, slides, rotary tables, and automated assembly equipment. The maximum ball reach of 0.096 inches is suited to shallow detent grooves or light-engagement indexing. Both the body and ball are steel construction, making this plunger appropriate for environments with moderate wear demands and mechanical loading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/8-11 threaded body for direct installation into tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel body and steel ball for durability in mechanical positioning applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInitial end force of 9 pounds, final end force of 18 pounds for controlled detent engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum ball reach of 0.096 inches suited to shallow-groove indexing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated locking element prevents back-out under vibration or repeated use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact, lightweight form factor for space-constrained installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install threaded ball plunger for applications requiring a 5\/8-11 thread and controlled spring end force in indexing and positioning assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall using a standard wrench on the body hex into a clean, properly tapped 5\/8-11 threaded hole. Ensure the mating detent groove depth is compatible with the 0.096-inch maximum ball reach before installation. The locking element should be engaged to the specified torque per the machine designer's requirements to prevent loosening during operation. De-energize or lock out any powered equipment before servicing plungers installed in automated machinery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/8-11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.984 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Ball Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.096 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall 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\u003eColor Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: Purple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VLIER\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: B62N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51971433070898,"sku":"B62N","price":19.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/135805ac20dd7ad778ced8d5a0ae3e01.jpg?v=1789957325","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-b62n-threaded-ball-plunger-5-8-11-steel-locking","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
