Selecting Compatible Lead Screws and Nuts
More
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. The threads have a tight thread fit for accurate, repeatable starts and stops. Pair with a motor in automated motion and positioning applications. To ensure compatibility, please select components that have the same thread direction, thread size, and number of thread starts.
Cast iron nuts have good machinability and high strength. 932 bearing bronze and 673 bronze nuts are wear resistant. They have good machinability and fair corrosion resistance. PET plastic nuts are lightweight and corrosion resistant.
Travel distance per turn, also known as screw lead, is the distance a nut moves with one revolution of the lead screw.
