Ball Plungers
- Ball Diameter: The size of the ball that makes contact with the target surface, influencing the surface area and pressure.
- Body Length: The length of the plunger housing, affecting how deep the plunger sits within the mounting hole.
- Locking Element: A feature such as a nylon patch that prevents the plunger from loosening due to vibrations.
- Pressure (Spring Force): The amount of force applied by the internal spring that pushes the ball outward. It’s available in various strengths for different applications.
- Thread: Ball plungers come in different thread sizes to ensure compatibility with the mounting hole or surface.
