A solenoid valve may have a fixed member having a tube portion. The valve may also have a mobile plunger positioned in the tube portion, the mobile plunger being axially movable between a first and a second position. The valve may also have a rod coupled to the mobile plunger and having a spool for control of fluid flow, the rod being axially movable in the tube portion. The valve may also have an electromagnetic coil positioned externally to the fixed member, where the rod has a coupling end and the mobile plunger has a coupling element where the coupling end hookingly couples to the coupling element.
