Product description
Compiled from the existing technical description of this product on this site
The hex socket SW5.0 ball plunger screw is M10×16 with a pitch of 1.5, property class 12.9, and uses an SW5.0 hex socket drive. A spring and a steel ball are built into the head; after screwing in, the ball extends under spring force and presses against the workpiece, indexing plate or locating face, giving quick locating, indexing and spring-loaded locking. It suits fixtures that require spring-loaded support and frequent locating.
