The plunger features a 10-32 thread with a 3\/4-inch thread length and a 1\/8-inch nose projection. The steel body and steel nose provide durability in metal-to-metal contact environments. Initial end force is 2.9 pounds and final end force is 11.1 pounds, making the S52 well suited for applications requiring firm, repeatable engagement without heavy actuation force. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals install this type of component in jigs, fixtures, panels, and tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe S52 is typically installed in tapped 10-32 holes in metal panels, machined blocks, or fixture plates where controlled spring-loaded engagement is needed. Common applications include detent positioning in sliding or rotating assemblies, panel latching, and component registration in production tooling. The standard plunger length type and fixed projection keep installation straightforward in both OEM and field-service scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10-32 threaded body with 3\/4-inch thread length for direct installation into tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8-inch plunger nose projection provides controlled engagement depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.9 pound initial end force and 11.1 pound final end force for firm detent action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel body and steel nose for metal-contact durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard plunger length type with no locking element for straightforward torque adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact design suits tight-clearance fixture and panel installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install spring plunger for any assembly requiring a 10-32 threaded spring plunger with a 3\/4-inch thread length and 1\/8-inch nose projection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall into a clean, properly tapped 10-32 through or blind hole using a hex key or appropriate drive tool. Ensure the mating hole depth accommodates the full 3\/4-inch thread length without bottoming out the plunger body. Disengage or de-energize any moving assembly before installation or removal to avoid unintended actuation. No locking element is present, so apply thread-locking compound if vibration resistance is required per the assembly specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.091 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.092 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.9 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11.1 pounds\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: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: S52\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52106960077106,"sku":"S52","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2be824eb936ae758d498e607347f0102.jpg?v=1790073908","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-s52-threaded-spring-plunger-10-32-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
