2. Leadscrew - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leadscrew

   A lead screw is sometimes used with a split nut (also called half nut) which allows the nut to be disengaged from the threads and moved axially, independently of the screw's rotation, when needed (such as in single-point threading on a manual lathe). A split nut can also be used to compensate for wear by compressing the parts of the nut.

3. Split nut - Wikipedia

   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).

   - With its 28° thread angle this has higher friction than the square thread, but is easier to manufacture and can be used with a split nut to adjust for wear. [5] It is widely used in vises, C-clamps, valves, scissor jacks and lead screws in machines like lathes. (g) Buttress thread

6. Backlash (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlash_(engineering)

   The next-more complex method than the simple nut is a split nut, whose halves can be adjusted, and locked with screws, so that the two sides ride, respectively, against leftward thread and the other side rides rightward faces. Notice the analogy here with the radio dial example using split gears, where the split halves are pushed in opposing ...
