It features a 6-32 thread size with a 17\/32 inch thread length and a stainless steel body and nose. The plunger diameter ranges from 0.044 to 0.045 inches with a 1\/16 inch projection. An integrated locking element secures the plunger in place once installed, preventing loosening from vibration. Initial end force is 1.5 pounds and final end force is 4.5 pounds, making it suitable for applications requiring controlled, repeatable spring resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis spring plunger is used in light mechanical assemblies where positive positioning or detent action is required. Typical applications include jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and machine components where a small-diameter threaded plunger is needed. The stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance for use in wet, washdown, or mildly corrosive environments. The compact 6-32 thread size makes it appropriate for precision assemblies with limited space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-32 thread size with 17\/32 inch thread length for standard tapped-hole installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel body and nose for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIntegrated locking element prevents loosening under vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.5 pound initial end force and 4.5 pound final end force for controlled detent action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlunger diameter of 0.044 to 0.045 inches with 1\/16 inch projection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard plunger length type for typical positioning and indexing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement or new installation for applications requiring a 6-32 threaded spring plunger with a stainless steel body and locking element in standard-depth tapped holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by threading the SSS48P into a pre-tapped 6-32 hole using a standard hex key or installation tool sized for the plunger body. Power down or de-energize any associated equipment before installation or removal. The locking element should be engaged fully to prevent backing out during operation. Avoid over-tightening, which can damage the thread or affect spring function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.044 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.045 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.5 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\u003eLocking Element\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Length Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\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: SSS48P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972312236338,"sku":"SSS48P","price":23.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a6505118660323cbd69925841cb8c532.jpg?v=1789966123","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-sss48p-threaded-spring-plunger-6-32-stainless-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
