TAPERED INDEX PLUNGERS

 


Rotary Cam
Flange Mount






 
FEATURES: Index plungers are precision, heavy-duty assemblies with a retractable spring-loaded plunger and a matching locating bushing. Tapered Index Plungers feature a 15° taper on the plunger tip with a mating taper on the bushing. The taper makes alignment easier and also eliminates any binding during retraction (also available with a straight plunger, for slightly greater positional accuracy). The rotary-cam version completely retracts when the handle is rotated 180°. Cam surfaces are hardened steel. The flange-mount configuration shown here has a precision ground body with a flange used for orientation by fastening with two socket-head cap screws (also available with a slightly oversize unground body to allow custom grinding to size). Flange mounting is designed for installations where a cross hole for a set screw is not practical. Order plunger and bushing separately. Made in USA.

SIZES: Choice of two plunger diameters — see Dimensions page for part numbers:
    1/2"
    3/4"

INSTALLATION: Index plungers are manufactured with precision working tolerances and are designed for very light interference-fit installations to avoid binding of the mechanism.
