Lead screw nuts can be made from various materials depending on the application and requirements. Some common lead screw nut materials include:
1. Brass: Brass is a popular choice for lead screw nuts because of its good wear resistance and corrosion resistance.
2. Bronze: Bronze is also a popular choice for lead screw nuts because of its good wear resistance and self-lubricating properties.
3. Plastic: Plastic lead screw nuts are commonly used in low-load applications because of their low cost and self-lubricating properties. The common material like POM, PEEK.
4. Steel: As part of motion control products, steel lead screw nuts are used in high-load applications because of their high strength and durability.
5. Aluminum: Aluminum lead screw nuts are used in applications where weight is a concern, such as in aerospace and automotive industries.
