Hi Lee

I think its an acme threaded screw although I have seen them referred to as trapazoidal (I dont know what the difference is! lol) and sized as 12x3, if that helps! :)

Hello,

Have a look on ebay as i know there is one seller in the UK that has them for sale in dif combinations, I know for sure they do the same screw and a matching Tap, so you could make your own if you wanted to buy the Tap? I do have a ACME tap but i dont think its the right size will go and have a look now...

EDIT:

Try contacting this seller: Trapezoidal ACME Leadscrew & Nut - TR8x1.5 TR10x2 TR12x3 TR16x4 - 3D Printer CNC

They may be willing to sell you just the nuts :).

You tried contacting the original seller? they usually stock spares.
