It features an M6x1.0 threaded body with a 0.4 inch thread length and a knurled locking knob head that allows the plunger to be locked in the retracted position for easy part loading and unloading. The maximum plunger diameter is 0.12 inches with a plunger projection of 0.13 inches. End force ranges from 0.5 pounds initial to 2 pounds final, making it suitable for low-to-moderate holding force requirements. Machinists, toolmakers, and mechanical assemblers install this component in jigs, fixtures, and equipment panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SSLFM6P is commonly installed in machine tool fixtures, assembly jigs, and panel-mounted indexing applications where the operator needs to lock the plunger in a retracted position before engaging the workpiece. The knurled knob provides a secure grip for manual operation without additional tooling. Its compact body length of 10 mm makes it a practical choice for space-constrained assemblies requiring a reliable, repeatable positioning mechanism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocking knob holds plunger retracted for hands-free part loading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnurled knob style for secure manual grip without tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM6x1.0 thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow initial end force of 0.5 pounds rising to 2 pounds final for controlled engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 10 mm body length suits tight-clearance fixture designs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.13 inch plunger projection provides positive, repeatable indexing reference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard-format locking spring plunger for M6x1.0 tapped holes in machine fixtures, assembly tooling, and industrial equipment panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a properly tapped M6x1.0 hole to the appropriate depth for the 0.4 inch thread length. Thread the plunger in by hand using the knurled knob, then tighten to the manufacturer-recommended torque using a suitable tool on the head if required. Ensure the plunger axis aligns with the intended detent or index point before final installation. Depressurize or de-energize any associated equipment before servicing fixtures that incorporate this component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M6x1.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4 inches (10.16 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Locking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnob Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Knurled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 inches (3.05 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.13 inches (3.30 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.8 inches (20.32 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds (2.22 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 pounds (8.90 N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\/Shoulder\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.53 inches (13.46 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches (12.70 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.27 inches (6.86 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\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: SSLFM6P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52026182271282,"sku":"SSLFM6P","price":33.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/05e21bd7a0f4dca0566b4b5a9d49bf64_eb5a746d-103a-4e37-abc8-44d9789cf0c5.jpg?v=1790016174","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-sslfm6p-locking-knob-plunger-m6x1-0","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
