A "split nut" typically refers to a type of mechanical component used in various applications, including machinery and precision instruments. The term can have different meanings depending on the context, but it often describes a nut that is divided into two or more segments, which allows for easier adjustment, maintenance, or fitting onto a threaded shaft. In woodworking, for example, a split nut might be used in a mechanism to accommodate the adjustment of a lead screw in a machine.
