It features a 5\/8-11 thread with a body length of 1.062 inches and a stubby plunger configuration with a maximum plunger diameter of 0.31 inches and a projection of 0.215 inches. The steel body provides solid resistance to side loads, while the Delrin nose reduces friction and wear on mating surfaces. Initial end force is 2 pounds, rising to a final end force of 8.5 pounds at full compression. This part is installed by machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and mechanical assemblers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe NM63 fits applications where a low-profile, stubby plunger is required  -  typically in jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and precision mechanical assemblies where controlled detent force and repeatable positioning are needed. The 5\/8-11 thread allows installation into standard tapped holes in steel, aluminum, or other structural materials. The relatively modest force range makes it well suited for lighter indexing loads where component damage from excess spring force is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/8-11 thread with 1.062 inch thread length for straightforward installation in standard tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStubby plunger type with 0.215 inch projection  -  compact profile for space-constrained assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel body construction for durability under side load and torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelrin nose material minimizes wear on mating surfaces and reduces friction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 pound initial end force and 8.5 pound final end force for predictable, repeatable detent action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo locking element  -  allows removal and repositioning without thread-locking compound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard threaded spring plunger for use in machined fixtures, jigs, tooling plates, and mechanical assemblies requiring 5\/8-11 threaded detent or positioning hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by qualified machinists or mechanical assemblers using a hex wrench or spanner appropriate for the body size. Ensure the receiving tapped hole is clean, properly sized for 5\/8-11 thread, and free of debris before threading in the plunger. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can damage the internal spring or distort the body. Confirm plunger movement is smooth and unobstructed after installation before placing the assembly into service.\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\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.062 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.062 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.215 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 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\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stubby\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: No\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: NM63\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51989400256818,"sku":"NM63","price":24.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d9f9deb28a53c96cc04d71592592c5bb_ee0a8386-8212-4d68-b678-74a85271b2a1.jpg?v=1789988200","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-nm63-threaded-spring-plunger-5-8-11-steel-body","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
