This cam-action index plunger from RS PRO lets you position and hold moveable components in place. It's simple to use. Rotate the lever by 180° to allow the plunger to withdraw and use the groove for safe positioning. A notch ensures that the handle remains secure until you're ready to change it. When the plunger is released, it extends and holds your components in position. The cam-type handle allows for quick and easy release of the spring-loaded mechanism, letting you swiftly transition from a withdrawn to a protruding position. The index plunger is made from high-quality blackened steel, which is durable and able to resist a high level of force. This allows the plunger to be used safely without breaking or being worn down from heavy industrial usage. Cam-action indexing plungers like this one can be used for a range of positioning or catching applications inside machinery or appliances.
