Selecting Compatible Lead Screws and Nuts

Acme Lead Screws and Nuts

Found in hand-powered clamps, vises, grates, doors, and work tables, lead screws and nuts have broad, square threads that are well suited for quick assembly, high clamping forces, and lifting and lowering heavy objects.

Metric Lead Screws and Nuts

These metric lead screws and nuts have broad, square threads that are well suited for quick assembly, high clamping forces, and lifting and lowering heavy objects. They're commonly found in hand-powered clamps, vises, grates, doors, and work tables.

Precision Acme Lead Screws and Nuts

Also known as single-start and self-locking lead screws and nuts, these have a single thread that runs the length of the screw. The nut travels only when the screw turns, so your system won't unexpectedly move when the lead screw is at rest.

Fast-Travel Precision Acme Lead Screws and Nuts

Multiple thread channels (also known as thread starts) create faster linear travel than lead screws with a single thread start.

Metric Precision Lead Screws and Nuts

Also known as trapezoidal-thread lead screws and nuts.

Ultra-Precision Lead Screws and Nuts

Fast-Travel Ultra-Precision Lead Screws and Nuts

Multiple thread channels (also known as thread starts) create faster linear travel than lead screws with a single thread start.

Clamping Acme Lead Screw Collars

Thread these one-piece collars onto an Acme lead screw.

Two-Piece Clamping Acme Lead Screw Collars

Mount these two-piece collars anywhere on an Acme lead screw without removing components.

Metric Clamping Lead Screw Collars

Install these threaded collars on a metric lead screw to separate and position components, or use them as an end stop to limit travel.

Bearing Retaining Nuts

Often paired with spring lock washers to strengthen their hold, these retaining nuts—also known as shaft nuts—keep vibration from shifting bearings, bushings, pulleys, and gears on your threaded shaft or spindle.
