INDEXING PLUNGER

Indexing plungers and locking bolts are standardised construction components that enable moving machine components to be adjusted quickly. Pulling on knob or pull ring retracts a pin so that machine parts can be moved to another position and re-secured. KIPP offers indexing plungers in a range of sizes, forms and materials. We guarantee that your products will function smoothly and exhibit the highest levels of quality and resistance.

Indexing plungers for variety of applications

Indexing plungers by KIPP are used in swivelling or rotating devices, as well as in the positioning of stops. Besides easy handling, the durability and quality of the indexing plungers are particularly noteworthy. We ensure that our indexing plungers have an exact run and lock securely into the end position – regardless of whether the plunger is screwed into existing threads or welded on to produce a smooth finish. As a result even the strongest transverse forces have no effect during machining and a new indexed position can only be moved to after the pin has been manually retracted.

How the indexing plunger works

In order to guarantee high levels of stability and corrosion resistance, KIPP indexing plungers are made of steel and stainless steel. A plastic or stainless-steel mushroom grip ensures that conical and cylindrical plungers are simple to operate and easy to handle. What's more, KIPP has also developed a special plunger with a flat nut to ensure problem-free mounting on steel-panel constructions and thick-panel parts. All plungers are available in standard pin lengths and plunger diameter.

KIPP also produces custom-solution indexing plungers upon request.
