Trapezoidal nut 14x3 right-hand flanged, bronze

Product Description

Trapezoidal nut 14x3 right-hand flanged, bronze

The nut works with a trapezoidal screw with the same thread - choosing the correct size and thread hand is key to the correct operation of the mechanism. Product made of Tin bronze CuSn5Zn5Pb5-C (CC491K), right-hand thread Tr 14x3 (standard DIN 103 / ISO 2901-2904).

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

Which trapezoidal screw fits this nut?

Selection is simple: the same designation Tr 14x3, the same thread hand (right-hand) - nothing else needs to be checked.

How can you tell that a trapezoidal nut is worn?

The most common sign is increasing backlash between the screw and the nut - noticeable jerking when the direction of motion changes. This means the nut thread has worn and needs to be replaced.

Does this nut need lubrication?

Yes, and do not skimp on grease - this nut works in sliding motion under load, and a lack of it shortens the thread's service life.

Does a standard trapezoidal nut have backlash in the thread?

Yes, some backlash results from the manufacturing tolerance of the thread - this is normal. If you need zero backlash (e.g. for precise positioning), anti-backlash nuts are used, which are a different product from a standard nut.

What are the properties of this nut's material?

Material: Tin bronze CuSn5Zn5Pb5-C (CC491K) - a material long used in screw drives because of its favourable sliding friction coefficient.

How is this nut mounted in the mechanism?

The holes in the flange allow the nut to be screwed directly to the moving part of the machine, without an intermediate sleeve.

Where are 14x3 trapezoidal nuts used?

14x3 trapezoidal nuts are used in screw jacks, presses, vices, positioning tables, linear axes of CNC machines and tensioning mechanisms - wherever the rotary motion of a screw must be converted into precise, repeatable linear motion.
