Lead & Ball Screws

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.

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.

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.

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.
