Square thread form
Screw thread profile with a square cross-section
The square thread form is a common screw thread profile, used in high load applications such as leadscrews and jackscrews. It gets its name from the square cross-section of the thread.[1] It is the lowest friction and most efficient thread form, but it is difficult to fabricate.
