The tangless design eliminates the protruding tang common to standard spring stops, reducing interference in close-tolerance installations. The body measures 0.875 inches wide by 0.688 inches long with a stroke length of 0.125 inches. The stop head measures 0.625 inches wide by 0.625 inches tall and 0.187 inches thick. Force progression runs from 5.13 pounds initial end force through 10 pounds mid end force to 14.9 pounds final end force, giving technicians a predictable, progressive engagement feel. The body is machined from aluminum, keeping weight minimal at 0.03 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SS88C is used in tooling, jig and fixture work, machine assembly, and production equipment where repeatable part location is required. The tangless square profile suits applications where a standard spring plunger or round-head stop would create interference or insufficient bearing surface. Machinists, toolmakers, and assembly technicians working in light manufacturing environments are the primary installers. The square stop head provides a flat contact face useful for registering flat-sided workpieces or fixture plates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTangless design eliminates protrusion hazards and interference in tight assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProgressive spring force: 5.13 pounds initial, 10 pounds mid, 14.9 pounds final end force\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare stop head (0.625 inches wide by 0.625 inches tall) provides flat bearing surface for component registration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact body at 0.875 inches wide by 0.688 inches long with 0.125 inches stroke\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum body construction for lightweight, corrosion-resistant performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMounting slot dimensions of 0.136 inches length by 0.136 inches width for positive fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install locating stop for tooling, fixtures, and precision assembly equipment requiring a tangless square spring stop with 0.875 inch body width and 0.688 inch body length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by toolmakers or assembly technicians. Power down or de-energize any equipment before servicing fixtures containing spring stops. Use the mounting slot dimensions and hole center spacing of 0.656 inches to align the stop accurately before fastening. Do not over-compress the stop head beyond its rated 0.125 inch stroke during assembly, as this can reduce spring performance and service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.688 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStroke Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStop Head Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStop Head Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.625 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStop Head Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.187 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistance Between Mount Hole Centers\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.656 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistance Between Mount Hole and Edge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.656 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Slot Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.136 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Slot Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.136 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.13 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMiddle End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14.9 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTang Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tangless\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.03 pounds\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: SS88C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52125837820210,"sku":"SS88C","price":19.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f83736bd15d9ca789c079d41cfde0657.jpg?v=1790087947","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-ss88c-tangless-square-spring-locating-stop","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
