Retract the nose by pulling the ring. The ring allows you to attach these spring plungers to a lanyard to secure them to machinery and prevent accidental drops. They have a long nose that provides a large bearing surface to handle side loads.

Steel is strong and wear resistant. Zinc-plated steel bodies resist corrosion in wet environments.

316 stainless steel is more corrosion resistant than 18-8 stainless steel and can be used in saltwater environments.

18-8 stainless steel is chemical resistant.

Brass is corrosion resistant in wet environments; brass noses are soft to minimize marring.

Spring plungers without thread locker are for use in soft material such as aluminum, in extreme temperatures, and on parts requiring frequent assembly and removal.

Spring plungers with thread locker have a locking patch that adds friction to resist loosening.

Extended nose force is the force required to begin to depress the nose. Compressed nose force is the force required to depress the nose flush with the body. When using a plunger as a detent or stop, a lighter nose force with a shallower hole releases more easily, while a heavier force with a deeper hole holds more securely.

Lock the nose into the retracted position by pulling the ring and rotating it 90°. The ring allows you to attach these spring plungers to a lanyard to secure them to machinery and prevent accidental drops. They have a long nose that provides a large bearing surface to handle side loads.

Install from the nose end without depressing the nose using a driver (sold separately). With a nose that is longer than a ball-nose, these provide a large bearing surface to handle side loads.

Steel is strong and wear resistant. Black-oxide steel bodies resist corrosion in dry environments.

18-8 stainless steel is chemical resistant.

Spring plungers without thread locker are for use in soft material such as aluminum, in extreme temperatures, and on parts requiring frequent assembly and removal.

Spring plungers with thread locker have a locking element that adds friction to resist loosening.

Extended nose force is the force required to begin to depress the nose. Compressed nose force is the force required to depress the nose flush with the body. When using a plunger as a detent or stop, a lighter nose force with a shallower hole releases more easily, while a heavier force with a deeper hole holds more securely.

Also known as caulk-in anchors, these stay secure when there's not much material to hold. When installed, the cone expands the sleeve to hold it firmly inside the hole. To install, insert the anchor cone end first and use an installation tool to drive the sleeve over the cone. Then, insert a screw or threaded rod and tighten. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

Also known as double expansion anchors, these expand from both sides for full contact and a secure hold. To install, tap into a drilled hole with a hammer and position your fixture. Then, insert a screw or threaded rod and tighten. For maximum expansion, the anchor should protrude slightly above the surface before threading the screw. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

Often referred to as four-way expansion anchors, these expand in four directions to resist loosening from vibration. To install, tap into a drilled hole with a hammer and position your fixture. Then, insert a screw or threaded rod and tighten. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

A zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in wet environments. Also known as drop-in anchors, these are often used for overhead applications because the anchor's internal plug expands in four directions to hold the anchor firmly inside the hole before inserting a threaded rod or bolt. To install, place the anchor into the hole, insert the required installation tool (sold separately) into the anchor, and drive with a hammer until the thicker portion of the tool makes contact with the anchor. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values for normal-weight concrete.

Anchors can be installed below the base of the surface as well as flush with the surface.
