With the sleekest knob we offer, these fit in areas with low clearance, such as in between conveyors. They tighten with a hex key for installation in cramped spots where your fingers might not reach. Tug the knob back to manually retract the nose so you can position, align, and lock components as needed for your job.

Spring plungers are available with or without a threadlocker. Those with a threadlocker won't wiggle loose from vibration. Spring plungers without a threadlocker are easier to remove.

Align, position, and lock moving parts for most machining and assembly tasks. These spring plungers have a spring-loaded ball that compresses when a part presses against it, and then pops out into a notch or groove to hold the part in place. Unlike long-nose spring plungers, the ball rolls easily in and out of position, so they're a great fit for applications that require consistent, smooth movement, such as positioning parts in an assembly line and aligning fixtures and jigs when cutting or drilling.

Embed in hollow walls and ceilings to create secure female-threaded connections that let you remove and reinstall a screw or threaded rod. These anchors have the highest pull-out strength of any of our anchors for hollow block and brick, and are made in the U.S. Often used in cinder blocks and hollow core panels, their toggle bar pivots inside hollow cavities for a firm hold. They’re similar to toggle bolt anchors, but require a smaller hole, so you won’t end up with a gaping hole in your block or brick.

To install, push the anchor through your component into a drilled hole and twist it 180°—gravity drops the toggle into position. Pull the anchor to secure. Twist the anchor back 180° to collapse the toggle and remove the anchor.
