£4.95 Screw Rod, SFU1605 1000mm, is it really any good

I think this is the killer

Chances are they'll be factory rejects that somebody has bought at scrap value, and assembled to something 'useable'.

They'll likely work, but expect rubbish accuracy, and lots of backlash. I certainly wouldn't buy them with the expectation of using them for anything high precision.

Yes- I received one looked it over and promptly bought another. I don't think I could buy the metal for the money never mind have it delivered.(Note only bubble wrapped so at risk of bending in transit ) Very pleased/happy at least for now-Pete .P.S. Any other CNC 'ers in or around Aylesbury?

still odd why or how they would do it so cheap, where is the profit margin in it, gangsters maybe laundering money on amazon quick time. dont care anyway to be fair
