    I have all these little balls.

    I have a 16 x2 Isel ball and screw. Got some grit into the housing so it had to come apart!. So, is there an easy way to reload or wil I have to send it for repair?

    Thanks

    George

    There is a couple of previous links here on reloading, hopfully it has removable reload tubes.
    You should also check for two different size of balls used, it is often customary to use a smaller ball every other position, this is done to avoid jam up when operating.
