Anti-backlash nuts
Our anti-backlash nuts come in three different styles, each with their own benefits.
XC – Patented ActiveCAM™ mechanism
- Lowest drag
- Solid anti-backlash design for high axial stiffness
AFT – Anti-backlash collar
- Most cost effective
- Excellent rigidity within rated load (45N)
- Higher drag torque due to the spring preload
- Spring force only provides Anti-backlash under very light loads
