Trapezoidal nut 20x4 right-hand cylindrical, steel

Product Description

Trapezoidal nut 20x4 right-hand cylindrical, steel

It is the basic element of every screw-and-nut drive - it converts the rotary motion of the screw into the linear motion of the mechanism. Standard DIN 103 / ISO 2901-2904, material Steel 11SMnPb37 (1.0737), right-hand thread Tr 20x4 - parameters fully compliant with the trapezoidal screw drive standard.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

Which trapezoidal screw fits this nut?

Trapezoidal screw Tr 20x4, right-hand - size, pitch and thread hand must be identical to the nut, otherwise the mechanism will jam.

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 does the symbol Tr 20x4 mean?

The designation "Tr" indicates a trapezoidal thread with a symmetrical 30° profile. The first number is the nominal diameter in mm, the second is the pitch - the distance the nut travels per turn of the screw.

Does this nut need lubrication?

No - it is a fastening/self-locking element that does not work in sliding motion under load, so it does not need lubrication.

What are the properties of this nut's material?

Material: Steel 11SMnPb37 (1.0737) - the hardness and rigidity of the material cope well with static loads in self-locking joints.

How is this nut mounted in the mechanism?

The smooth, round outline allows the nut to be seated in a recessed socket, without protruding edges.

Where are 20x4 trapezoidal nuts used?

20x4 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.
