    Acme Lead Screws and Nuts

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Contains Inset. 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. To ensure compatibility, please select components that have the same thread direction, thread size, and number of thread starts.
    Round Nuts—Right-Hand Thread

    Round nuts move objects along the length of a lead screw.
    Cast Iron—Cast iron components have good machinability and high strength.
    360 Brass—360 brass components have excellent machinability and good corrosion resistance.
    932 Bearing Bronze—932 bearing bronze components are more wear resistant than brass components. They have good machinability and fair corrosion resistance.
    Travel Distance per Turn—Travel distance per turn, also known as screw lead, is the distance a nut or handle moves with one revolution of the lead screw.

    Precision Acme Lead Screws and Nuts

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Contains Inset. Precision Lead Screws and Nuts. Precision Acme Lead Screws and Nuts.
    Pair with a motor in automated motion and positioning applications. A tight thread fit allows these lead screws and nuts to make accurate, repeatable starts and stops. Also known as single-start and self-locking lead screws and nuts, they 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. To ensure compatibility, please select components that have the same thread direction, thread size, and number of thread starts.

    Internal ball bearings provide smooth low-friction travel in applications that require high speeds, accurate positioning, and repeatable movement. Also known as single-start ball screws and nuts, they have a single thread that runs the length of the screw. They operate with more torque than fast-travel ball screws and nuts. To ensure compatibility, select components that have the same thread direction and size. Ball nuts are furnished with a tube to keep ball bearings in place. Do not remove the tube until you are ready to install the nuts onto the screws.
