    Default How to mount a ballnut? Please advice

    I have just started another CBC build and have bought some gear. Starting to look at the ball nut I realize that thy are different then other ball nuts I have used. The ones I'm used to have a flange in one end with mounting holes. These new ones only have a threaded side which should either be used to screw it into a threaded mount of some kind or to use with a large nut and a mount. Anyone that are familiar with these kind of ball nuts and that perhaps have some guiding pictures or advices?

    Thanks in advance. Kayakman

    The threaded end screws into a flange. Something like these.
    3/4 X .200 Left Hand Recirculating Lead Screws & Nuts for Power Transmission - Roton Products, Inc.

    If you know what the threads are, you should be able to purchase a flange.

    If the thread is .938" (15/16") – 16 UN then take a look at this.
