ActionJac™ Stainless Steel Machine Screw Jacks are ideal for use in demanding environments where corrosion resistance is required. All external components are manufactured from 300 series stainless steel materials. These jacks use a stainless steel worm with a high strength bronze drive sleeve. Load capacities for Stainless Steel Machine Screw Jacks range from 1,300 to 23,000 pounds. A 17-4PH hardened worm is available for a 300% increase in capacity.
USA-made, rugged design and high capacity with sizes from 1/2 to 75 tons.
German-made, symmetrical housing allows for universal mounting from either end.
Up to 4,000 lbf (Up to 18 kN)
(4,000+ to 40,000 lbf) (18+ to 180 kN)
(40,000+ to 150,000 lbf) (180+ to 700 kN)

A translating jack has a lifting shaft that moves through the gear box. A nut is integrated with the worm gear such that the worm gear and nut rotate together. When the lift shaft is held to prevent rotation, the lift shaft will move linearly through the gear box to move the load.
A rotating jack has a lift shaft that moves a nut as it turns. The lift shaft is fixed to the worm gear. This causes the load, which is attached to the travel nut, to move along the lift shaft.
Double Clevis Jacks are used when it is necessary to move a load through an arc, such as tracking antennas, hinged doors or air dampers. One clevis is mounted on the end of the lift shaft and the other clevis is welded to a heavy duty stem cover, which is welded to the housing.
Note: Mounting hardware for double clevis jacks should be specified as heat treated alloy steel clevis pins with at least 100,000 psi ultimate tensile strength.
Double clevis jacks used horizontally will have reduced column strength and life. For most horizontal applications, Nook/Thomson recommends the use of an Electric Cylinder (contact Nook/Thomson Engineering for more information).

Rotating Screw - R
The rotary motion of precision worm gearing (worm shaft and internally threaded worm wheel) is converted into axial linear motion of the screw, which travels through the gear box housing. The load is attached to the end of the screw.
Rotating Nut, with or without anti-rotation (axial translating Screw) - N or V
Driven by a precision worm gearing (worm shaft and worm wheel), the rotary motion of the screw is translated into linear motion of the travelling nut on the screw.
High Speed - One full turn of the worm shaft leads to a stroke of one millimeter.
Low Speed - One full turn of the worm shaft leads to a stroke of 0.25 mm.
The stroke length of the screw jack.
Machining that is done to the end of the screw
Bellow cover for protection against external influences. Suitable for horizontal or vertical installation.
The diameter and lead of the screw used. On most units there is only one choice per size and type. On Muli 4 there are 2 different ball screw choices.
