The body and nose are both constructed from stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance in demanding environments. The plunger delivers 16 pounds of initial end force and 68 pounds of final end force, making it suitable for moderate-to-firm holding applications. Thread size is 1\/8, with a body and thread length of 2-13\/32 inches. A built-in locking element secures the plunger in the threaded bore after installation. This component is installed by machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians in industrial and precision manufacturing settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SSS66N is used in jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and machine components where a spring-loaded plunger is needed to index, locate, or retain a workpiece or moving part. The 1\/2-inch projection allows the nose to engage mating detents or surfaces without excessive overhang. The stainless steel construction suits applications involving washdown, cutting fluids, or mild chemical exposure. The locking element prevents the plunger from backing out under vibration, which is critical in high-cycle or dynamic load environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel body and nose for corrosion resistance in wet or chemically active environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16 pounds initial end force and 68 pounds final end force for reliable holding performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in locking element prevents loosening under vibration or dynamic loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2-inch plunger projection for positive engagement with detents or mating components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard plunger length type with 2-13\/32 inches body and thread length for consistent fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlunger diameter range of 0.496 to 0.498 inches for close-tolerance bore applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install threaded spring plunger for use in standard 1\/8-inch threaded bores in jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and similar precision mechanical assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a hex key or spanner tool appropriate for the plunger head style. The threaded bore should be clean and free of debris before installation. The locking element engages the bore threads during final tightening  -  do not overtighten, as this can damage the locking feature or distort the bore. Always confirm the plunger is fully seated and the locking element is engaged before returning the assembly to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-13\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-13\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlunger Projection\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.496 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Plunger Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.498 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInitial End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinal End Force\u003c\/strong\u003e: 68 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\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: SSS66N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VLIER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972426203442,"sku":"SSS66N","price":84.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/66a4e7a93a680a485853722e191faaf0_0c86611b-68c0-471e-b30b-b32c80691d71.jpg?v=1789968471","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vlier-sss66n-threaded-spring-plunger-1-8-thread-stainless","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
