Product Description
Carbon Steel Indexing Plunger Introduction
●Product Introduction
This indexing plunger is a precision spring-return positioning and locking component manufactured from full stainless steel, available in two styles: mushroom head and flat head. By pulling the head to retract the plunger, the spring automatically resets to lock when released. It enables quick positioning, indexing, and gear shifting for equipment, making it an efficient and reliable positioning part for automated machinery and tooling fixtures.
●Structural Features
Material & Craftsmanship: Fully machined from 304/316 stainless steel with a matte brushed finish, offering corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and high strength to maintain stable performance in harsh environments like moisture and oil contamination.
Structural Design:
Hexagonal body: Facilitates installation with a wrench, effectively prevents rotation during operation, and ensures stable positioning.
Threaded adjustment section: Allows flexible adjustment of installation depth and preload, adapting to different mounting thicknesses.
Precision plunger: Provides high guiding accuracy, smooth extension/retraction, and minimal positioning clearance, guaranteeing high repeatability of station positioning.
Ease of Operation: The large mushroom/flat head design offers a comfortable grip. One-handed operation for pulling to unlock and releasing to lock is achievable without additional tools, ideal for high-frequency use.
Style Adaptability: Two options (mushroom head for better grip, flat head for compact space) meet diverse installation space and operating habit requirements.
Safety & Stability: Built-in spring return structure automatically locks the plunger when extended, eliminating the risk of accidental disengagement and ensuring safe equipment operation.
●Typical Applications
Automated Production Lines: Station switching on assembly lines, stop positioning on conveyor lines, and posture locking of robotic arms.
Tooling Fixtures & Machine Tools: Indexing of machining center worktables, quick positioning and locking of fixtures, and opening/closing positioning of molds.
Industrial Machinery: Gear adjustment for packaging and printing machinery, and positioning of telescopic arms in construction machinery.
Warehousing & Logistics Equipment: Height/gear adjustment for movable shelves and trolleys, and temporary locking of folding mechanisms.
Precision Instruments: Angle adjustment and position locking for laboratory platforms and medical devices.
