Lead screws and ball screws serve the purpose of converting rotational motion (such as from a motor or handwheel) into linear motion. While they share this common function, there are subtle distinctions between the two.
Lead screws are typically considered more cost-effective but exhibit lower accuracy. On the other hand, ball screws are known for their increased energy efficiency, thanks to the presence of recirculating balls in the nut, although they may generate more noise. In environments with dust or debris, lead screws may outperform ball screws, and we also offer specialized high-precision lead screws that are manufactured to even closer tolerances than standard commercial lead screws.
Also featured in our range are cylindrical ball nuts, available with or without threads, designed to be compatible with our diverse range of ball screws ranging from 16 to 40 mm in diameter. To safeguard against the potential loss of recirculating balls within the ball nuts, it is advised to extract the mounting sleeve only by installing the nut onto a lead screw.
Our flanged ball screw nuts adhere to DIN standards. They can be seamlessly utilized with ball screw nut brackets to facilitate the mounting of carriages and similar components.
Cylindrical Bronze Nuts are used with our lead screws to convert rotary motion into linear motion. The nut is threaded onto the screw and moves along the length of the screw as it rotates, providing smooth and precise linear motion.
Ideal for manual or motorised applications at low to medium rotation. It has internal threads that match the screw, which ensures exceptional durability and wear resistance due to the material. Made of Bronze which has better corrosion resistance than steel but is less strong or heat resistant.
It is used in the automotive, aerospace or construction industries to secure lead screws in place. Available as standard right-hand thread cylindrical bronze nuts as well as left-hand threaded.
Cylindrical Steel Nuts are fasteners that are commonly used in conjunction with lead screws or ball screws to convert rotary motion to linear motion. The nut is threaded onto the screw and moves along the length of the screw as it rotates, providing smooth and precise linear motion.
They are used for low rotational speeds, manual control, and clamping functions. It is not suitable for motorised movements. It has internal threads that match the screw, which ensures exceptional durability and wear resistance due to the material.
It is used in the automotive, aerospace or construction industries to secure lead screws in place. Available as standard right-hand thread cylindrical steel nuts as well as left-hand threaded.
Flanged Ball Nuts are an essential component of ball screw assemblies. They are precision mechanical components used in linear motion systems. These nuts, as the name implies, include a flange, which is a flat, projecting rim that extends from the nut and offers additional support and ease of installation.
It's used in conjunction with ball screws to convert rotary motion to linear motion. Ball bearings in the nut roll along the ball screw as it turns, giving smooth and precise linear motion. The flange features a tight tolerance, ensuring minimum backlash and high precision and accuracy.
These are widely utilised in a variety of industrial applications, including in automotive, aerospace, and medical equipment. Please keep in mind that removing the ball nut from the sleeve provided can cause the ball bearings to come loose, rendering the ball nut useless.
Flanged Bronze Nuts are an important part of lead screw assemblies, extensively employed in linear motion systems. It is intended for manual or motorised applications at low rotational speeds under load, and it has a smooth surface that reduces lead screw wear.
They are extremely durable and have an element of self lubrication. The bronze material also assures dependable performance, making them one of the most popular nut choices in lead screw assemblies.
These are widely utilised in a variety of industrial applications, including in automotive, aerospace, and medical equipment. Available as standard right-hand thread flanged bronze nuts as well as left-hand threaded.
Hexagon steel nuts give a solid grip while preventing loosening due to vibration or motion. They are simple to tighten and relax with a normal wrench or pliers. Hexagon steel nuts give a solid grip while preventing loosening due to vibration or motion. They are simple to tighten and relax with a normal wrench or pliers. They are used with steel or stainless steel lead screws for low rotational speeds, manual control, clamping or locking actions, and dead weight reception.
Due to its material, it is used in applications that need high strength and durability but require lubrication to prevent the nut seizing with the screw.
These are widely utilised in a variety of industrial applications, including in automotive, aerospace, and medical equipment. Available as standard right-hand thread hexagon steel nuts as well as left-hand threaded.
Please note: Steel to steel contact surfaces are inappropriate for motorised motion.
In this range used with lead screws, you will find a wide range of Square Nuts depending on your needs: Square Bronze Nuts with fixing holes, Square Brass Nuts, Square Steel Nuts and Square Steel Nuts with Fixing holes.
Ball Screws are precision components used in linear motion systems to convert rotary motion into linear motion efficiently and accurately. They consist of a threaded shaft (or nut) and a set of precision ground ball bearings. The ball bearings roll between the shaft and nut, reducing friction and wear common in sliding motion systems.
These are commonly used in various industrial applications, especially in automotive, aerospace and medical equipment. Based on the diameter, a large selection of ball screws is provided.
Please note: Do not remove the ball nut from the sleeve before assembly, as the balls will come loose, and the nut will become unusable.Ball Screws are precision components used in linear motion systems to convert rotary motion into linear motion efficiently and accurately.
Lead screws are a type of screws used to convert rotational motion into linear motion by converting the rotational movement of the screw into forward motion of the nut. 'Lead' refers to the distance a nut will travel for a complete revolution of the screw.
They are used for standard applications that require a lower degree of precision and accuracy, or where a ball screw is not suitable due to environmental conditions. They are strong, durable, and more cost efficient than ball screws.
They are also used in robotics, automotive or CNC machining industries. Available as standard right-hand thread lead screws as well as left-hand threaded. Please note: These lead screws, unlike threaded rods (not to be confused between them), have a thicker and stronger raceway which makes them ideal for heavy load applications where repetitive linear motion occurs.
