A Guide to Trapezoidal Screw Jack Design, Construction and Selection
When you need to move a heavy load with a high degree of accuracy and safety, a trapezoidal screw jack is hard to beat. Because trapezoidal screw jacks are a well-established technology with an enduring design, you’ll find many high-quality units to meet your basic design needs. It is also easy to assume that there’s no difference among the many products available. However, not all screw jacks are created equal. When performance counts, some factors can make the difference between a good screw jack and an exceptional screw jack.
