Bill, I've a catalog from BSA,including the turcite nuts,If you want
I can scan it and e-mail to you.the only problem with this nuts,is
size to load(huge nut size to small load.)i've tryed the 1/4" preload
nuts and it's rated to 10 lbs.i've found that the cam system slips
back if you overload it,giving a small backlash.alligment is critical
to have it performing properly.they use to have a weeb site ,but I
can't find it anymore.It should be WWW.ballscrews.com
