Spring Plungers

A range of low cost indexing plungers which function well in small dimensions. However, their use should be limited to such applications where high precision indexing is not required. Maximum heat resistance of nylon plastic hand knob: 110°C (230°F).

Spring plungers are used as detents as well as for push-on/push-off applications and ejectors.

This indexing Plunger is used in applications which require surface mounting and the plunger has to stay in its retracted position. To achieve this, the knob is rotated 90° after being retracted. The head of the plunger body is provided with a suitable notch in opposite positions so as to prevent the plunger from accidentally slipping back into its forward position. The series has been expanded with additional plunger pin lengths to widen the application opportunities. Maximum heat resistance of nylon plastic hand knob is 230°F.

GN 113.6 heavy duty ball lock pins are used for rapid connecting and securing of components or workpieces. A typical application is locating pins that have to regularly be moved in and out of position. These ball lock pins have a high load capacity, due to the pin being made of heavy duty, hardened and highly abrasion-resistant stainless steel. By depressing the spring loaded push button, the two balls are freed, and by releasing the push button the balls are locked. Locked pin diameter inches is 0.28" and double shear strength is 7868 lbf.

This cam action indexing plunger is best utilized when the pin needs to be retracted. A groove exists so the plunger can be held in both positions. The new grooved lever arm provides the user with a better grip when operating the mechanism. In addition, the snap-on plastic ribbed sleeve offers a more aesthetically pleasing and comfortable finger grip. Maximum heat resistance of nylon plastic sleeve is 230°F.
