These precision lead screws pair with standard nuts which offer a higher load capacity than anti-backlash nuts. Standard nuts are free wheeling and suitable for applications where backlash is not a concern.

These precision lead screws pair with anti-backlash nuts which have a spring that applies uniform radial pressure to the nut throughout the motion profile, reducing backlash compared to standard nuts. These nuts are self-lubricating and have a preset drag torque giving them greater resistance to backlash.
