    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.
    Externally Threaded Nuts—Right-Hand Thread
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Precision Lead Screws and Nuts. Precision Acme Lead Screws and Nuts, Externally Threaded Nuts—Right-Hand Thread.
    Combine externally threaded nuts with a flange to create a custom flange nut.
    673 Bronze—932 bearing bronze and 673 bronze nuts are wear resistant. 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 moves with one revolution of the lead screw.
