Lead Screw Nut

A lead screw nut is a component part of a screw drive. The shape can be cylindrical or trapezoidal.

The product is a cylinder with internal threading. Before choosing a nut, the size and thread lead must be taken into account — otherwise it will not mate with the screw.

Applications

Lead screw nuts are used in machine tools and screw presses, in bridges of transport equipment, for drive threads and in screw joints.

Features

Lead screw nuts are made from high-strength steel grades. For use in chemical or aggressive environments, a stainless steel nut or one with a protective coating is recommended — this provides protection against adverse factors, including high humidity.
