A superb range of gothic arch thread form lead screws that ensure smooth linear movement. The lead screws are manufactured from 304 or 303 Stainless Steel delivering high postional accuracy and excellent corrosion resistance. Available in diameters of 4mm, 6mm, 8mm, & 12mm with leads of 1 to 30mm makes the series ideal for a multitude of precision linear applications. Complimented by a range of matched precision plastic nuts, all the screws can be delivered with machined end journals that are ready to fit directly into an application.
MRH-A,B series : KSS products
Using a non reactive Polyamide type resin for the nut material gives an excellent coefficient of friction. The material is impregnated with a lubricating agent that allows the nut and screw to be used without lubrication if required. However, lubrication is advised to increase operational and longevity. Other nut materials are available on request.
MRH-BP2 series : KSS products
Using a non reactive Polyamide type resin for the nut material gives an excellent coefficient of friction. Backlash free nut designs can be supplied using a double nut design with a captivated wound spring between them providing a preload. Other nut materials are available on request. .
R-MSS (Y) series : NTN Corp. products
Using Bearee AS5000 plastic material for the nut enables a wide range of environmental application challenges to be overcome. Please note that high lead types (3 times as diameter.) are also available in this series.

Accuracy grade and Axial play
Accuracy grade of KSS Resin Lead Screws is based on Japanese Industry Standard Ct10. The tolerance on the specified travel is calculated by
following formula. Axial play is 0.05 to 0.10mm (except Backlash free type).
Tolerance on specified travel ep: ep =±𝓁u300 ×0.21 (mm)
𝓁u : Useful travel (mm)

Description of Run-out and location tolerance
Each part of run-out tolerance is based on Japanese Industry Standard Ct10 of Ball Screws.
Thread groove profile
The thread grooves are of a gothic arch design. This is basically the same as those used in the KSS Ball Screw ranges.
Mechanical efficiency
Mechanical efficiency of KSS Resin Lead Screws η(%) can be calculated by the following formula.
The expected “Mechanical efficiency” calculated from measurements is 20%-50%.
Generally, as the Lead increases, “Mechanical efficiency” tends to be high. Please use this number as a reference.
η = Fa×𝓁T × 2 ϖ ×100 (%)
Fa : Axial load(N)
𝓁 : Screw Lead(m)
T : Rotational torque(Nm)
FV value limits on use and endurance data
• FV value limits on use
For KSS Resin Lead Screws, the product of Axial Load and relative velocity of Screw surface is defined as FV, and this definition is reference to check if it is usable or not. Fig. D-11 is maximum FV which can be operated without lubricants in case of using Nut material MRH (Material : MC703HL). Applying lubricants will improve operational efficiency.
Fig. D-11 : FV value limits
Model : MRH0805 / Lubricant : None
Evaluation :
◎ Stable operational conditions were maintained for the long term.
◯ Operation were good, but some wears were seen on the Nuts.
△ Operations became difficult in a relatively short time.
╳ Operations became difficult in the short time.
In case of FV<5(N·m/s), stable operations were maintained.
Operations under FV>10 (N·m/s), maintaining stability was difficult.
Axial Load should be treated more carefully as to upper limits
rather than relative speed.
• Endurance test data of Preloaded products(BP2 type)
Model : ø10mm、Lead = 6mm
Load : None
Speed : 1000rpm
Travel : 400mm(bi-directional)
Lubricant : None
Result : After running 100km, operation were good

Caution
1) Lubrication
2) Additional end-journal machining
3) Handling.
Linear guideways provide excellent load bearing linear motion by re-circulating rolling elements between a profiled rail and a bearing block. By primarily using a four ball path design, within the slide, delivers excellent rigidity and parallelism during operation. The guides can be used in both vertical and horizontal planes.
ABSSAC supplies both radial and thrust bearings, complete with housings, to compliment their expanding lead screw and ball screw ranges. All bearings include the bearing set, bearing housing, snap ring, lock nut, spacer ring and retaining cover. Available to suit all shaft sizes, the range delivers robust radial and thrust protection in any rotary or linear application. Let us help you with your selection.
We provide a full range of quality, low cost lubricants for all our linear products including low vapour pressure greases for clean room and vacuum applications. For example the new Trigel line is specifically formulated to offer a lubrication solution for a wide range of linear motion applications. Please ask for further details.
ABSSAC welcomes reverse engineering applications. Over the years, many customers have sent damaged leadscrews and nuts for us to measure and replicate, often as a result that dimensional drawings do not exist. Please contact one of our knowledgable sales engineers for further details.
