Review: These are 4 start anti-backlash nuts though I couldn't see this in the description. They don't fit Ender 5 pro, new version, which has 2 start lead screws, and probably don't fit others. Please check before ordering Review: Installed really well on and Ender 3 Pro. I've noticed after modifying just about every system on the printer that as my tolerances become tighter and tighter, general shortcomings in the design start to become apparent. I'm not saying the Ender 3 Pro isn't a great printer at a fantastic price - it most definitely is! It is the definition of a truly extensible platform with unlimited possibilities. My modifications or "upgrades" are too numerous to list ad nauseum, but I have begun to see Z hops showing slightly uneven setdowns. This is due to not only play in the stock brass nut that attaches to the z rail, but general backlash by definition. The spring keeps constant tension between both parts of the anti-backlash nuts and the locking tongue and groove disallow either from turning in reference to each other. The slight gap allows the transmission of force applied in the opposite direction, which causes backlash, to the spring which compresses and decompresses thusly negating that force on the z axis and all the things attached to it. Viola... Problem solved. I ended up needing to put one set of m5 washers between the stepper's plastic attachment block and the frame to correctly line up the leadscrew with the center of the hole in the z axis plate. Doing this happened to align dead center. Two of the four mounting holes in the top half of the part lined up well with the existing holes on the z axis plate. Easy installation and very pleased with the results. If something should go awry in the future, I will update this review as I always do. Would recommend and would buy again. I haven't tried the couplers yet, although I'm maybe not the biggest fan of the set screw design... But I bought this set for the two anti-backlash nuts and the couplers will go in one of my parts boxes for another day. ## Features - Flexible coupler, removes stress between motor and driving component; 5mm to 8mm, great for RepRap 3D Printers and small CNC machines. - Coupler Dimensions: 19mm x 25mm/0.75 x 0.98inch(D x H) - High quality anti-backlash nut, high precision, suitable for 3D printer T8 lead screw. - Pitch: 2mm; Lead: 8mm. - Package Content: 2 x Shaft Coupler 5mm to 8mm + 2 x Anti-Backlash Nut. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07FC84D63 | | ASIN | B07FC84D63 | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (63) | | Customer reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (63) | | Date First Available | 3 November 2018 | | Date First Available | 3 November 2018 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Weight | 74 g | | Item model number | WGCD 185 | | Item model number | WGCD 185 | | Manufacturer | WGCD | | Manufacturer | WGCD | | Material | Aluminum, Brass | | Number Of Pieces | 4 | | Package Dimensions | 14 x 11.5 x 2 cm; 74 g | | Package Dimensions | 14 x 11.5 x 2 cm; 74 g | | Part number | WGCD 185 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** WMYCONGCONG - **Exterior finish:** Black - **Item weight:** 0.07 Kilograms - **Material:** Aluminum, Brass - **Metal type:** Aluminum ## Images ![WMYCONGCONG WGCD 2 PCS T8 Anti Backlash Spring Loaded Nut Elimination Gap Nut + 2 PCS Flexible Couplings 5mm to 8mm Stepper Motor Coupler for RepRap 3D Printer CNC Machine - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ZjErDggBL.jpg) ![WMYCONGCONG WGCD 2 PCS T8 Anti Backlash Spring Loaded Nut Elimination Gap Nut + 2 PCS Flexible Couplings 5mm to 8mm Stepper Motor Coupler for RepRap 3D Printer CNC Machine - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51iZ-d+yM7L.jpg) ![WMYCONGCONG WGCD 2 PCS T8 Anti Backlash Spring Loaded Nut Elimination Gap Nut + 2 PCS Flexible Couplings 5mm to 8mm Stepper Motor Coupler for RepRap 3D Printer CNC Machine - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51u1BSC6ZHL.jpg) ![WMYCONGCONG WGCD 2 PCS T8 Anti Backlash Spring Loaded Nut Elimination Gap Nut + 2 PCS Flexible Couplings 5mm to 8mm Stepper Motor Coupler for RepRap 3D Printer CNC Machine - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61l1qwBRV+L.jpg) ![WMYCONGCONG WGCD 2 PCS T8 Anti Backlash Spring Loaded Nut Elimination Gap Nut + 2 PCS Flexible Couplings 5mm to 8mm Stepper Motor Coupler for RepRap 3D Printer CNC Machine - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61sJ0MdJpYL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How many starts in the nut threaded for , 1 start , 4 starts ?** A: 4 starts. **Q: Will this work on the cr10s pro?** A: yes **Q: How many starts is the nut threaded for ?** A: 4 starts **Q: Will this work on the cr10s pro?** A: yes ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐ Review *by S***O on 21 October 2023* These are 4 start anti-backlash nuts though I couldn't see this in the description.
