The body and ball are both constructed from stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance in demanding environments. The ball diameter measures 0.315 inches (8.00 mm) with a maximum ball reach of 0.098 inches (2.50 mm) and a body length of 0.866 inches. Initial end force is 2.25 pounds (10.00 N) and final end force is 4.50 pounds (20.00 N). A locking element is integrated into the body to secure the plunger in the threaded bore after installation. This component is installed by maintenance technicians, machinists, and mechanical assemblers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SBML12N is suited for use in jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and precision mechanical assemblies where repeatable ball detent action is required. The M12 x 1.75 thread makes it compatible with metric-threaded bores in machine frames, fixture bodies, and industrial equipment. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for wash-down environments, food-processing equipment, and other applications where corrosion resistance is a priority. The locking element prevents the plunger from backing out under vibration or repeated cycling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM12 x 1.75 metric thread for direct installation into standard metric-threaded bores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel body and stainless steel ball for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.315 inch (8.00 mm) ball diameter with 0.098 inch (2.50 mm) maximum ball reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.25 pound (10.00 N) initial end force and 4.50 pound (20.00 N) final end force for controlled detent action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated locking element secures plunger position after installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePurple color code for quick field identification of force rating and size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for installation into metric-threaded bores requiring an M12 x 1.75 thread profile; suitable for use in jigs, fixtures, tooling, and general industrial mechanical assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or mechanical assemblers using a standard hex wrench or spanner appropriate for the M12 body. The threaded bore should be clean and free of debris before installation. Engage the locking element per the manufacturer procedure to prevent the plunger from loosening under vibration. Do not exceed the rated end force by substituting higher-force springs or modifying the internal components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M12 x 1.75\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.866 inches (22.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.315 inches (8.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Ball Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.098 inches (2.50 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.25 pounds (10.00 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.50 pounds (20.00 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: Stainless 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: SBML12N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51958462185778,"sku":"SBML12N","price":19.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/55b5ee238003862644a3089d06b84424_48f63dbc-f374-4cc7-bb83-6c610365c20f.jpg?v=1789945087","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-sbml12n-threaded-ball-plunger-m12-x-1-75-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
