Spring-Loaded Indexing Plungers
Industrial Components Update —indexing plungers deliver reliable, tool-free positioning in machinery, fixtures, and assembly lines. Their mechanical simplicity ensures fail-safe operation where precision matters most.
Product Engineering Highlights
1. Durable Material:
Constructed from high-hardness stainless steel for rustproof performance in coolants, washdowns, or outdoor environments.
2. Precision Threads:
Industry-standard fine threads (M10, M16, M20) ensure secure mounting in tapped plates or mounting blocks.
3. Lock Spring Mechanism:
Heat-treated spring provides consistent tension for smooth rotation and positive "click" engagement.
4. Intuitive Operation:
Pull → Rotate 90° → Release: Simple three-step action locks/unlocks the indexing plungers instantly.
5. Core Functionality:
Controls pin extension/retraction for:
Indexing: Secure rotary table positions.
Positioning: Align jigs in welding/assembly.
Stop Limits: Gate workpiece flow on conveyors.
Why These Indexing Plungers Excel
Zero Power Dependency: Mechanical operation unaffected by electrical/pneumatic failures.
IP-Rated Sealing: Resists dust/debris ingress (standard IP65 equivalent).
Temperature Resilience: Performs from -30°C to 120°C (-22°F to 248°F).
Industrial Applications
