The body is stainless steel for corrosion resistance, while the nylon ball provides a low-friction, non-marring contact point. The ball diameter measures 0.236 inches with a maximum ball reach of 0.079 inches and a body length of 0.748 inches. Initial end force is 4.5 pounds and final end force is 7.87 pounds, making this plunger suitable for repeatable, controlled positioning tasks. Machinists, toolmakers, and mechanical assemblers install this type of component during equipment fabrication and maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe DSBM10 is used in fixtures, jigs, machine tool assemblies, and industrial equipment where a positive but releasable detent action is required. The nylon ball is well suited for applications where marring of the mating surface must be avoided, such as positioning panels, drawers, slides, or light mechanical components. This plunger is installed into a threaded bore and adjusted to the desired engagement depth, making it a straightforward fit for both OEM builds and field repair work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM10 x 1.5 thread size for standard metric bore fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel body resists corrosion in demanding environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon ball provides non-marring, low-friction contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4.5 pound initial end force and 7.87 pound final end force for controlled detent action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.236 inch ball diameter with 0.079 inch maximum ball reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo locking element  -  threaded adjustment without thread-lock hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style or replacement ball plunger for mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and jigs requiring an M10 x 1.5 threaded detent component with a nylon ball contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the plunger body into a prepared M10 x 1.5 tapped bore using a hex key or spanner, depending on the drive style of the body. Confirm thread engagement depth before final seating to achieve the specified ball reach and detent force. No locking element is integrated into this plunger, so apply thread-locking compound if vibration resistance is required by the application. Disengage or de-energize any moving components in the assembly before installation or removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M10 x 1.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.748 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.236 inches (6.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Ball Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.079 inches (2.01 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 pounds (20.00 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.87 pounds (35.00 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: Purple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\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: DSBM10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52077660864818,"sku":"DSBM10","price":20.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/55b5ee238003862644a3089d06b84424_1a272d2d-ff05-4a0a-975b-e02c6f2dc43b.jpg?v=1790053580","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-dsbm10-threaded-ball-plunger-m10-x-1-5","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
