Frequently Asked Questions

How do I install these in a blind hole?

Since these feature a hexagon socket, they can be easily driven into threaded holes using a standard hex key.

What is the difference between standard and intensified force?

Intensified force versions provide higher spring pressure, making them suitable for applications where significant lateral force must be overcome.

Note

The ball is spring-loaded and retracts into the sleeve when pressure is applied.
