Vlier S52P Threaded Spring Plunger 10-32 3/4in Steel Locking

Product Description

The VLIER S52P is a standard threaded spring plunger designed to provide controlled positioning, indexing, or light retention in mechanical assemblies. It features a steel body and steel nose with a 10-32 thread size and a 3/4 inch thread length. The plunger delivers 2.9 pounds of initial end force and 11.1 pounds of final end force, making it suitable for applications that require a defined engagement feel. A locking element is included to secure the plunger in position once installed. This part is typically installed by machinists, mechanical assemblers, or maintenance technicians working with precision positioning hardware.

The S52P fits into tapped holes in panels, fixtures, jigs, tooling plates, and machine components where repeatable detent or positioning action is needed. The 1/8 inch plunger projection and 0.092 inch plunger diameter are suited for light-duty indexing tasks in both production and maintenance environments. The steel construction makes it appropriate for general industrial applications requiring moderate durability.

Key Features

• 10-32 thread size with 3/4 inch thread and body length for straightforward installation in standard tapped holes
• 1/8 inch plunger projection for controlled, low-profile engagement
• 2.9 pound initial end force and 11.1 pound final end force for defined detent action
• Steel body and steel nose construction for general industrial durability
• Integrated locking element to hold the plunger securely in the installed position
• Standard plunger length type for common positioning and indexing applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for mechanical assemblies requiring a 10-32 threaded spring plunger with a locking element and standard projection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the S52P into a pre-tapped 10-32 hole using an appropriate wrench or driver. Ensure the mating surface is clean and the thread engagement is sufficient before applying torque. The locking element should be engaged according to the assembly requirement before finalizing the installation. Always de-energize or lock out any equipment before servicing components in moving or pressurized assemblies.
