Search By Specification


Screw Type




   Screw Type       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   ACME Screw
 
     ACME screws have a very specific thread geometry that directly contacts the nut and provides linear motion through direct sliding friction between nut and lead screw.  ACME threads are square-topped.
 
   Ball Screw
 
     Ball bearings ride in between nut and lead screw.  Often minimizes friction and allows for high speed.
 
   Lead Screw
 
     Lead screws drive a nut in linear motion via direct contact with the nut.  Lead screws often incorporate proprietary screw and nut geometry and materials and can be configured in zero-backlash arrangements.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
Manufacturing Process




   Manufacturing Process       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Rolled Thread
 
     Rolled screws are cold rolled from a blank. Typically, this produces a screw with a .004 inch per foot accuracy.
 
   Milled Thread
 
     Milled screws are made on a milling machine using a cutter with an Acme form. Typically, this produces a screw with a .002 inch per foot accuracy.
 
   Ground Thread
 
     Ground screws are made on a grinding wheel with an Acme form. Typically, this produces a screw with .0005 inch per foot lead accuracy.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
Physical Specifications




   Design Arrangement:       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   English Units
 
     Design unit in inches, tenths or eighths of an inch, etc.
 
   Metric Units
 
     Design units are in mm, cm, etc.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
   Length:
 
      
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   O.D Screw Diameter:
 
     The largest diameter value of the screw.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Screw Lead:
 
     The axial distance a screw travels during one revolution, measured in inch/turn or mm/turn.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Screw Lead Accuracy:
 
      
 
   Search Logic:      All matching products will have a value less than or equal to the specified value.
   Dynamic Load Rating:
 
     The load that can be sustained while the assembly is moving.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Maximum Static Load Capacity:
 
     The load that can be sustained, measured while the load is stationary.
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
Design Features




   Zero Backlash Design
 
     Backlash is the axial free motion between the nut and screw. It is a measure of the stiffness of the assembly.
 
   Search Logic:      "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice.
   Lubrication Port
 
      
 
   Search Logic:      "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice.
   Right Hand Thread
 
     The direction of the threads on the screw shaft causing the ball nut to travel away from the end viewed when rotated clockwise.
 
   Search Logic:      "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice.
   Left Hand Thread
 
     The direction of the threads on the screw shaft causing the ball nut to travel away from the end viewed when rotated counter-clockwise.
 
   Search Logic:      "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice.
   Twin Lead
 
     Lead is the axial distance a screw travels during one revolution. Twin leads are useful in opposing dual motion using a single drive system. This design features both the Left and Right Hand threads.
 
   Search Logic:      "Required" and "Must Not Have" criteria limit returned matches as specified. Products with optional attributes will be returned for either choice.
Acme / Lead Screw Nut Material




   Acme Nut Material       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Plastic
 
      
 
   Bronze
 
      
 
   Other
 
      
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
