Vlier SSLM6P Spring Plunger M6x1.0 Knurled Knob

Product Description

The VLIER SSLM6P is a stainless steel spring plunger with a knurled knob handle, designed for indexing, positioning, and light-duty locking applications in industrial assemblies. It features an M6x1.0 thread with a 0.512-inch thread length and delivers an initial end force of 1 pound rising to a final end force of 4 pounds. The non-locking plunger has a maximum diameter of 0.118 inches and a plunger projection of 0.118 inches. Stainless steel construction makes this plunger suitable for corrosive environments or applications requiring material compatibility with stainless hardware. Installation is performed by machinists, assembly technicians, and maintenance professionals working with threaded component assemblies.

This spring plunger is suited for use in machine tool fixtures, jigs, tooling plates, and precision mechanical assemblies where repeatable positioning or detent action is required. The knurled knob allows for hand adjustment without additional tools, making it well suited for applications that require frequent repositioning. Its compact body length of 0.63 inches accommodates use in tight or space-constrained assemblies.

Key Features

• M6x1.0 thread for standard metric tapped holes
• Knurled knob handle allows tool-free hand adjustment
• Non-locking plunger type for smooth, repeatable detent action
• 1 pound initial end force to 4 pounds final end force
• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Compact 0.63-inch body length for space-constrained installations

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-install spring plunger for metric M6x1.0 threaded bores in industrial fixtures, tooling, and mechanical assemblies requiring a knurled knob non-locking plunger.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the SSLM6P into a pre-tapped M6x1.0 hole by hand or with a spanner if torque is required per assembly specifications. Ensure the mating bore is clean and free of debris before installation to avoid thread damage. De-energize or lock out any mechanical system before servicing plungers in moving or actuated assemblies. Follow applicable machine safety standards and the assembly manufacturer's fastener torque guidelines.
