    ball screw wipers needed

    I bought my ball screws from MMC and when I went back for wipers they didnt have any. Where do I get these for 5/8 ball screws?

    replicapro,
    I made a mistake and did not order enough wipers and due to the minimum order, I refused to order more and found some information on the web about making my own!
    I went to Home Depot and got a "brush sweeper" for a door and made my own. You can see basically how I did it on my web site:

    Wasn't as pretty as the purchased ones, but they sure work.
