The plunger features a 1\/2-13 thread with a 0.75 inch thread length and a stainless steel body and nose, making it suitable for corrosive or wash-down environments. It delivers 5 pounds of initial end force and 28 pounds of final end force, giving technicians and machinists a defined load range for repeatable positioning. The maximum plunger diameter is 0.248 inches and the plunger projection is 0.151 inches. This part is installed by machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians working with precision fixtures and mechanical assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SSM60 fits into tapped holes in machine components, jigs, fixtures, workholding devices, and industrial equipment where a low-profile, threaded retention element is needed. The stubby plunger geometry is suited for applications where clearance is limited and a shorter projection is required. Stainless steel construction supports use in environments where carbon steel components would corrode, including food processing equipment, medical device fixtures, and wet industrial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-13 threaded body with 0.75 inch thread length for direct installation into tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStubby plunger nose with 0.151 inch projection for low-clearance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel body and nose material for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5 pound initial end force and 28 pound final end force for defined load-range positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum plunger diameter of 0.248 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo locking element, allowing straightforward installation and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-install threaded spring plunger for any application requiring a 1\/2-13 tapped hole and a stubby-nose low-projection plunger geometry in stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a properly tapped 1\/2-13 hole in the mating component. Use standard hex tooling appropriate for the body drive feature and torque to the fixture manufacturer's specification for the material being threaded into. Ensure the bore and thread are clean and free of chips or debris before installation. Depressurize or de-energize any assembly before servicing spring plungers in active fixtures or tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-13\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.248 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.151 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 28 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stubby\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: SSM60\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68089432211762,"sku":"SSM60","price":17.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/df1426e9fbddc2368ceb489d75acbb68.jpg?v=1793208496","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-ssm60-threaded-spring-plunger-1-2-13-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
