Vlier SSSD53 Threaded Spring Plunger 10-32 Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VLIER SSSD53 is a threaded spring plunger designed for precise, repeatable positioning and light-duty indexing applications in mechanical assemblies. It features a stainless steel body with a Delrin nose and a standard 10-32 thread size with a thread length of 0.75 inches. The plunger diameter ranges from 0.090 to 0.092 inches, with a projection of 0.125 inches. Initial end force is 1.3 pounds and final end force is 2.7 pounds. This part is typically installed by machinists, mechanical assemblers, or maintenance technicians working with precision equipment requiring controlled detent or stop functions.

The SSSD53 is suited for use in light industrial and precision mechanical applications where a compact, corrosion-resistant spring plunger is needed. Its stainless steel body makes it appropriate for environments where mild corrosion resistance is a priority. The standard plunger length of 0.75 inches and moderate spring force range make it a practical choice for jigs, fixtures, tooling, and similar assemblies requiring a low-profile, threaded positioning element.

Key Features

• Stainless steel body for corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• Delrin nose material provides low friction and wear resistance at the contact point
• 10-32 thread size with 0.75 inch thread length for secure installation in standard tapped holes
• 1.3 pound initial end force and 2.7 pound final end force for controlled detent action
• Plunger projection of 0.125 inches suitable for compact assembly clearances
• No locking element for straightforward installation and removal

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for mechanical assemblies requiring a standard 10-32 threaded spring plunger with a 0.75 inch body length.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a properly tapped 10-32 hole to the specified thread depth. Power down or de-energize any associated equipment before servicing assemblies containing this plunger. Use appropriate hand tools to thread the plunger to the correct depth without over-torquing the stainless steel body. Verify plunger projection and spring action after installation before returning the assembly to service.
