How long do you need?

I have been buying HIWIN 25mm oversize preloaded ballscrews.
They come as a single 25mm x 5mm x 2.5 meter length with 2 nuts.
I cut them to one 1.8 meter length and therefore have a 0.7
meter screw with nut left. I have one now and should have
another very soon. I wanted to save them as spares but
I doubt if I could get the nuts transferred to another
screw with out loosing the balls.
