Ball plungers GN 615.8 are used as locating devices, detent pins, pressure pins and ejectors. A typical example is push-on / push-off applications.
Ball plungers mounted in various control levers are also perfect solutions for snap-indexing mechanism applications.
The ball is mounted in a plastic shell which allows it to move and roll freely in the assembled housing. This generally optimizes the locating characteristics and reduces wear on the mating piece.
Another characteristic of these particular plungers is that the plastic friction bearing acts as an electrical insulator.
