    A ballscrew I had which sounded like that had very slightly undersized balls in it. If you can determine how well they fit and can find a slightly larger diameter set of replacements that could help. However I’ve searched and not had any luck other than in large quantities.
    But given that they very occasionally get stuck suggests a good clean would be a good start. I did post a YT video in my drill press series on the grease method but I do like Muzzer’s quick method above !
