  1. Hi, is this a pull type or push type? I need a push type (in which the shaft comes out to push something when activated (voltage applied) and springs back in as voltage is removed; i.e. does not fall off (the captivated slug type). Please confirm.
  2. From looking at the datasheet it appears to be a push type.
  3. Thanks a lot for your kind reply Hadley. The other thing I would like to know is whether the shaft pushes outward (6 mm) as voltage is applied and springs back in as voltage is removed; i.e. does not fall off (the captivated plunger type). I need to know this before I can buy these. Please confirm.

    Thanks
  4. Hi again Electronics,

    Yes as I mentioned above it is the push type. You can see the datasheet linked above and the part number.

    Regards.
  5. Thanks Hadley, I know it's push type. What I am asking is does it spring back in or loosely attached and thus falls out. That is to ask if it is the captive type or free plunger type?
  6. Pending moderation
