How much backlash is in a machine screw jack?
In machine screw jacks there are two types of backlash: worm to wormgear backlash (typically 8-15° worm rotation), and lifting screw to nut backlash, sometimes called endplay (up to 0.020 inches on new standard jacks). Refer to the JAX® program or contact sales@joycedayton.com for more information.
