Anti Backlash Flange Nut:
I'm thinking of ways to incorporate an anti backlash feature onto the Dia 3/4" x .50" lead screw flange nut.
It might be possible to to thread the end of the flange nut with a NPT 3/4" die,
which would then allow you to screw on a bushing to compress the thread to take up the backlash.
Method:
Grind a lead in angle on to the Dia. 1.125" end so a 3/4" NPT die can fit over it.
Cut threads into the O.D. of the flange nut.
Cut 1 narrow slot down the center of the flange nut.
Remove all internal burrs. Thermal deburring might work, but I don't know what plastic it's made of.
Screw on a metal or plastic NPT bushing, coupler, reducer, etc., to compress the flange nut.
Done!
Tks!
