Z axis Anti-backlash Upgrade

Forget about the annoying play on your Z axis, use T8 lead screws and anti backlash nuts and enjoy better quality prints.

T8 lead screws are great for improving your Z axis movement, they are really precise and its trapezoidal profile creates a smooth operation with little grease. The best part is the T8 anti backlash nut since its clever system gets rid of the play inherited in a normal screw-nut system. This traduces in better Z axis smothness and squareness.

There are different pitch T8 lead screws, I recommend the 2mm pitch ones, the less pitch the more Z axis resolution.

I also uploaded the Z axis top 688 parts for using bearings in case you also like bearings.

This one is pretty straight forward to install, just remember that if you come from a normal M5 leadscrew you will also need the correct 5mm to 8mm couplings for your nema 17.

You will need 4x M3 by 10mm screws to secure your T8 nuts in place and the rest of it should be pretty interchangeable.

You can get 2x M3 nuts
