This spring-loaded device features a 0.062-inch stainless steel ball and a stainless steel body, delivering an initial end force of 0.25 pounds and a final end force of 0.75 pounds. At 1\/4 inch in body length, the SSB47P is among the smallest and lightest spring-loaded plunger designs available for 5-40 threaded installations. A built-in locking element secures the plunger in position after installation. It is installed by mechanical assemblers and precision machine technicians in applications requiring consistent, low-force detent or positioning action.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SSB47P is suited for light-duty controlled-force positioning in precision assemblies, jigs, fixtures, and small mechanical devices. The 5-40 thread size targets applications where space is at a premium and minimal footprint is required. The maximum ball reach of 0.02 inches makes it appropriate for detent indexing, panel latching, and component alignment tasks in tight-tolerance assemblies. Its stainless steel construction makes it a practical choice in environments where corrosion resistance is a consideration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-40 thread size for use in compact, tight-clearance assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.062-inch stainless steel ball for precise, repeatable contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel body provides corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInitial end force of 0.25 lb and final end force of 0.75 lb for controlled, predictable positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in locking element secures plunger after installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum ball reach of 0.02 inches suits fine detent and indexing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor code: Purple for quick field identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit threaded ball plunger for assemblies and fixtures requiring a 5-40 thread form with stainless steel construction and controlled spring-end force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a properly tapped 5-40 threaded hole in the mating component. Use appropriate small-drive tooling to avoid over-torquing the body, which can damage the locking element or distort the thread. Verify that ball reach clearance in the mating surface matches the 0.02-inch maximum ball reach before finalizing assembly. Disengage or isolate any powered or spring-energized mechanisms in the assembly before installing or removing the plunger.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.062 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Ball Reach\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 lb\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: SSB47P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51984883024178,"sku":"SSB47P","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f28c7d7c0738cc088fa2326fea030df6.jpg?v=1789985082","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-ssb47p-threaded-ball-plunger-5-40-0-062in-ball","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
