Lead screws are often used in instrument grade applications where smooth, precise, clean, and maintenance free operation is required. The nut material is typically made of an internally lubricated polymer. Some examples would be laboratory and life sciences equipment such as DNA sampling, scanning and fluid handling devices. Other applications include engraving, 3D printer, woodworking tools, rapid prototyping, inspection, and data storage. Lead screws are also used in heavy lifting applications when combined with a metallic (typically bronze) nut. |

Q1. Do Lead Screws and Nuts need to be lubricated? |
A: Yes, we offer high quality lubricants for your lead screw application. We offer
several greases that are designed for specific uses like military and aerospace, semiconductor and medical applications. |
Q2. What is the difference between pitch and lead? |
A: Pitch is the measurable distance between screw grooves. Lead is the linear travel
the nut makes per screw revolution. The pitch and lead are equal with single start screws. The pitch is the lead in two start screws. |
Q3. For extra strength, should I use an extra long nut instead of standard nuts? |
A:In theory, yes it would be better, but in practical terms it wouldn't. The standard
length nuts that are offered in the Zhongjda Industry catalog offer the best price/performance ratio. When using extra long nuts, special gauging and tooling is required for them to work properly. However, larger diameters should be considered if capacity is a major concern. |
Q4. Are end machining services offered at Zhongjda Industry? |
A: Yes. |
Q5. Do you have accessories for the profile? |
A: We are able to supply full accessories for the profile. |
