Featuring a 1\/2-13 thread with a 0.75-inch thread length, the plunger delivers an initial end force of 5 pounds and a final end force of 28 pounds. The body and nose are both constructed from stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance in demanding environments. The unit includes a locking element that secures the plunger in the threaded bore after installation. Maximum plunger diameter is 0.248 inches with a projection of 0.151 inches. This part is installed by mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and tooling specialists across industrial and manufacturing settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SSM60N is suited for use in fixtures, jigs, tooling plates, and precision mechanical assemblies where repeatable positioning or detent action is required. Its stubby body length of 0.75 inches makes it appropriate for installations with limited axial depth. The stainless steel construction supports use in wash-down, light chemical, or high-humidity environments where carbon steel components would be at risk of corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-13 thread size with 0.75-inch thread length for standard threaded bore installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStubby plunger profile at 0.75-inch body length for space-constrained applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-pound initial end force and 28-pound final end force for reliable detent and positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel body and nose for corrosion resistance in demanding environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocking element secures the plunger in the bore without adhesive or secondary fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.248-inch maximum plunger diameter with 0.151-inch projection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded spring plunger for installation in any 1\/2-13 threaded bore requiring stubby-length detent or positioning action.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed using a standard hex wrench or spanner tool appropriate for the plunger body. Power down or de-energize any associated machinery before installing or removing spring plungers in active assemblies. The locking element engages the bore threads to resist back-out  -  do not apply thread-locking compounds unless specifically required by the assembly specification. Verify bore thread condition and cleanliness before installation to ensure proper seating and force values.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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\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\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stubby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\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: SSM60N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972260528434,"sku":"SSM60N","price":19.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/48007a1bb6b33e56c681717f9cbbba46.jpg?v=1789965183","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-ssm60n-threaded-spring-plunger-1-2-13-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
