    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split_nut

    A split nut is a nut that is split lengthwise into two pieces (opposed halves) so that its female thread may be opened and closed over the male thread of a bolt or leadscrew. [1] This allows the nut, when open, to move along the screw without the screw turning (or, vice versa, to allow the screw to pass through the nut without turning).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapezoidal_thread_form

    This thread form also allows for the use of a split nut, which can compensate for nut wear. [8] The line of General Purpose (GP) Acme threads (ASME/ANSI B1.5-1997) are not designed to sustain external radial loads and both the nut and bolt are, ideally, independently supported (the nut by a linear guide and the screw by shaft bearings).
