The plunger threads into a tapped M6x1.0 hole and delivers an initial end force of 1 pound, increasing to a final end force of 4 pounds as the plunger compresses. The body length is 0.630 inches, with a thread length of 0.512 inches and a maximum plunger diameter of 0.118 inches. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians typically install this style of plunger in jigs, fixtures, and machine tool components where repeatable spring-loaded positioning is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SLM6 suits residential and light industrial machine tool fixtures, assembly jigs, and equipment panels where a manually adjustable, non-locking spring plunger is needed. The knurled knob allows hand-tightening and adjustment without tooling, making it well suited for applications that require frequent repositioning or operator adjustment. The 0.118-inch plunger projection provides controlled, low-profile engagement with mating detents or surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-locking design allows free plunger travel without a secondary locking element\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKnurled knob head enables tool-free hand adjustment and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM6x1.0 thread fits standard metric tapped holes in fixtures and machine components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring end force range of 1 pound initial to 4 pounds final provides consistent, repeatable positioning force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact body length of 0.630 inches suits space-constrained assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlunger diameter tolerance of +0.000 \/ -0.001 inch ensures precise fit in mating bores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style spring plunger for use in any assembly or fixture accepting an M6x1.0 threaded spring plunger with a non-locking, knob-handle configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the SLM6 into a pre-tapped M6x1.0 through-hole or blind hole; the knurled knob allows hand-tightening in most applications. De-energize or lock out any equipment before servicing assemblies that contain spring plungers. Verify that the mating hole depth and thread engagement meet the minimum thread length of 0.512 inches to ensure secure retention. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can damage the plunger body or spring mechanism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M6x1.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Non-Locking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnob Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Knurled\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound (4.45 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 pounds (17.80 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.630 inches (16.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.512 inches (13.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\/Shoulder\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.512 inches (13.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.118 inches (3.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.118 inches (3.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.827 inches (21.01 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.512 inches (13.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.197 inches (5.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead and Shoulder Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.315 inches (8.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.000 \/ -0.001 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\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: SLM6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51959309631794,"sku":"SLM6","price":27.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cf16ebb7eaaeca7d38bb64c70f9181d6_85f197ee-2e43-4095-acb0-6b0c019201dc.jpg?v=1789945628","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-slm6-non-locking-knob-plunger-m6x1-0-knurled","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
