Kipp Brass Body - Stainless Ball

KIPP brass body / stainless steel ball parts are spring-loaded ball plungers (also called detent plungers) used for positioning, indexing, and light retention in fixtures, jigs, and machine elements (application dependent; verify per listing). Ball plungers create repeatable detent action by pressing a spring-loaded ball against a mating surface, groove, or pocket to provide controlled “click” positioning and consistent contact force. A brass body is often selected for improved corrosion resistance and for applications where a softer, non-ferrous body material is preferred, while a stainless ball provides durable, corrosion-resistant contact at the engagement point (application dependent).
