Lead Screw T8 - Pitch 2, Lead 2

thingiverse

Lead Screw T8, Pitch 1.5 mm, Lead 4 mm I managed to track down this exact type of rod on thingiverse after some searching. This version is longer than the brass nut I used previously, which helps reduce friction between surfaces. I've been using it as a quick fix for anti-backlash nuts and it works like a charm. It can also be used as the main rod nut if needed. Printed with PETG at 0.2 layer height. PLA won't hold up to the stress. To prevent filament expansion and tight threads, I adjusted Cura settings by reducing shell->horizontal expansion by -1 mm (you can adjust this value).
