Controlling dimensions to Trade series (GN 615), with tolerances and fit.
M8 Threaded Spring Plungers dimensions to Trade series (GN 615): coarse thread pitch 1.25 mm.
Figures are nominal values from the governing standard. Confirm against the tolerance class for your application before machining or ordering.
Dimensional data for M8 Threaded Spring Plungers to Trade series (GN 615), with the installation notes for this type. Values are taken from the governing standard rather than from a general machine-thread table, because this type is not selected on one.
| Thread size | Plunger types | Housing material | Ball material | Spring material |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| M8 | K / KS / KN / KSN | blackened steel or AISI 303 stainless | hardened steel or AISI 420C stainless | AISI 631 |
Customize the parameters below — every spec field is editable, and the drawing redraws to match the values you choose. Changing the size will snap the other fields to that size's standard values; you can then override any individual value.
The form below follows the current technical drawing configuration. Change the drawing values above and the request details update automatically.

This part is cold-formed, threaded, heat-treated and finished in-house. The stages below are where its class and finish are actually decided.
Wire rod is drawn to size and cold-formed into blanks. Forming rather than cutting keeps the grain flow continuous around the head, which is where a bolt is most likely to fail.
Head dimensions and under-head radius checked at set-up and per shift.
Threads are rolled between hardened dies rather than cut. Rolled threads are stronger in fatigue than cut threads and hold pitch and flank angle far more consistently across a batch.
Go / no-go ring gauges to ISO 965 tolerance class 6g.
Quench-and-temper brings carbon and alloy steel to the property class ordered — 8.8, 10.9 or 12.9 — with the furnace charge tracked so a finished lot can be traced back to it.
Core hardness and tensile tested per lot to ISO 898-1.
Zinc, zinc-nickel, hot-dip galvanizing, black oxide, phosphate and Dacromet, selected against the service environment rather than against the price list.
Coating thickness and neutral salt spray hours to ISO 9227.
Use a 9 mm clearance hole (ISO 273 medium) for through-fixing, or a 6.8 mm tapping drill for a coarse M8 thread.
For M8 the standard coarse pitch is 1.25 mm — this is the value used for Threaded Spring Plungers.
