Trapezoidal nut 16x4 right-hand cylindrical, bronze

Product Description

Trapezoidal nut 16x4 right-hand cylindrical, bronze

A trapezoidal nut is the counterpart of the screw: the stationary (or rotating) part of the system that converts rotation into linear travel. Made of Tin bronze CuSn7Zn4Pb7-C (CC493K), right-hand thread Tr 16x4, in accordance with DIN 103 / ISO 2901-2904.

Technical data

Frequently asked questions

Which trapezoidal screw fits this nut?

You need a screw Tr 16x4 with the same thread hand (right-hand) and the same pitch - other sizes will not fit together.

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.

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.

How do the material families of trapezoidal nuts differ?

Steel is chosen for fastening joints without sliding motion, bronze for drives with continuous sliding motion (low friction), and brass for lighter applications where moisture resistance matters at a lower cost than bronze.

What are the properties of this nut's material?

Material: Tin bronze CuSn7Zn4Pb7-C (CC493K) - it dampens microscopic irregularities of the thread well, which extends the service life of the mating screw.

How is this nut mounted in the mechanism?

The cylindrical body is designed to be installed inside a housing or mounting sleeve.

Where are 16x4 trapezoidal nuts used?

16x4 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.
