Screw Jack
•Screw jacks are used for raising heavy
loads through very small heights
•Square thread is an ideal thread form
for power transmission. In this, as the
thread flank is at right angle to the
axis, the normal force between the
threads, acts parallel to the axis, with
zero radial component. This enables
the nut to transmit very high
pressures, as in the case of a screw
jack and other similar applications.
