Progressive Components, Wauconda, Illinois, has expanded its line of SRT Slide Retainers with the new Slide Lock Style Slide Retainer. Compatible with previous standards, the Slide Lock Style Slide Retainer features a roller design that will not wear the bottom of slides, providing greaseless performance in medical and cosmetic applications.
Reliably holding 25 to 50 lbs each and featuring color-coded springs to indicate force rating, Progressive’s Slide Lock Style Slide Retainers are offered in three sizes: SRTLK-25A with a green spring to hold 25 lbs; SRTLK-25B with a longer blue spring to hold 25 lbs; and SRTLK-50A with a red spring to hold 50 lbs.
Optional cleats enable retention on the slide or a V-groove can be machined in at the bottom of the slide for retention.
