Bridgeport/clone leadscrew question

Post by davec43 »

How far does the X axis travel for one full turn on the X axis handle for a bridgeport?

I am putting a power feed on my Gorton I-22 and need to get a new graduated dial. Mine does .200 for one turn but will not go on the outside end of the adapter/shaft extension.

Thanks.

My clone is .200" per rev for x and y.
Z is .100"

Thanks Dave, I found some on EBAY a few minutes ago.

Power feed will be nice.
