GN 724.6 Locking indexing plungers

Features and applications

Indexing plungers GN 724.6 have a plunger pin with square cross-section, a latching surface on one side and a chamfer on the other. When the object to be secured moves towards the chamfer, the plunger pin is pushed back into the guide, allowing grooves and edges to pass over the pin. The plunger pin engages automatically in the direction of the latching surface.

The latching can be released by pulling the pull ring by hand or with a cable or pull rod using a hook. The types with rest position are used when the plunger pin should temporarily not protrude. For this purpose, the pull ring is turned sideways after the plunger pin has been retracted. The ring is held in this position by the catch recess at the top of the guide.

The dimensional tolerances between the pin and the guide have been chosen to ensure functional reliability even in roughly dimensioned applications or in the event of soiling.

For fastening, slotted or hex mounting holes allow the use of socket cap screws DIN 912 and hex head screws or nuts according to DIN 931 or DIN 934.
