A CBC ball screw 21685-4 -3 taken out of a Rottler F-65A machine center. This is a very small diameter ball. Not a standard ball bearing size by any means. But Ballscrew Guys had the correct size for the job. We were able to get it refurbished and rolling again with proper preload in a few hours. If you have smaller diameter and length ball screws, sometimes the most cost-effective way to restore its positioning accuracy is to ship it out to be serviced. We are happy to help you.
