Spring on shaft with retaining clip

I need to get another component like this but I can't seem to find any manufacturers / retailers.

To describe it:
It is spring mounted on a shaft and retained by bushing on the top and an enlarged shaft diameter bottom. E-clip on top is for securing shaft in place. Spring pushes the pin down.

If anyone knows what they are called, I would like to know.

    $\begingroup$ Generically, this would be called a spring plunger. They are common with wither male threads on the exterior, or for press-fitting. I'm not sure what you'd call one that mounts that way specifically. $\endgroup$

Perhaps a press-fit spring plunger?
