What is a Plunger?

A plunger is a cylindrical machine element part that uses the force of springs, balls, pins, etc., and is mainly used for positioning and fixing workpieces attached to processing machines. A ball or pin is attached to the tip, and it sinks into the body due to the load. When the load is released, it returns by the force of the spring. By using a plunger, you can easily incorporate it into equipment and devices without having to design and manufacture pins, springs, and pressers individually. Plungers are handled in a variety of types, shapes, and features, so it is important to select a shape that matches the intended use and check the load and size.
