 (16 products)


Ball Plungers Threaded with Hex Driver

These Spring Plungers with a pin end and a Hexagonal socket are used for locating, applying pressure, and lifting off. They have three components: a threaded body, a pin end, and a spring mechanism, as well as a hexagonal socket. The spring on the plunger provides the necessary force to keep the plunger in either the extended or retracted position.

The slotted design enables easy adjustment and precise alignment, allowing the plunger's extension or retraction to be fine-tuned to meet individual needs. The plunger pin can be quickly extended or retracted using manual force by push fitting, allowing for rapid modifications or changes in position.

The hex socket makes it easy to drive the spring plunger with a hex key. The threaded body makes it easy to integrate into existing systems or buildings. If the Pin is made of thermoplastic, it can withstand temperatures from -30C to +50C; however, if your Pin is made of stainless steel, it can withstand temperatures up to 250C. These spring plungers are widely utilised in various industries, including medical, optics, orthopaedics, machine and fixture design, lighting equipment, and electronic components, due to their endurance and versatility.
