Lead Screw Assemblies: Convert Rotary Motion to Linear Motion

Lead screws are commonly used to convert rotary motion into linear motion, and often provide actuation to a set of linear bearings. Tribologically optimized polymer lead screw nuts — available for all standard lead screw geometries, along with specialized high-helix geometries — offer a number of benefits over standard metal nuts, including:

• Maintenance-free operation
• Resistance to dirt, dust and corrosion
• Reduced wear rate
