Hi all,
I ordered and just received some acme thread rod 1/2 10tpi the other day. The Delrin nut that came with it is very tight. So tight that it causes my stepper (205oz) to stop. Is this how tight a Delrin nut should be or did I get a bad one? Here's an example of how tight it is... with the acme rod free from the machine and held in one hand, and the Delrin nut in the other, you can't spin it on with your index finger and thumb.
Thanks,
Gregg
