New Slide Retainers launched - Mould & Die Solutions

Progressive Components’s exclusive SRT Series Slide Retainers have captured the loyalty of customers worldwide due to their smooth, greaseless and reliable operation when holding side actions, especially in cleanroom molding environments. Progressive has now added additional retention options within this line.

“Our current product line offers retention force for 4.5, 13.5, 36 Kg slides,” explains Amar Patel, Engineering Director. “When asked, the response from customers was overwhelmingly in favor of expanding the number of options available to optimize the force applied to their slides.”

SRT Series Slide Retainers feature an unprecedented compact design allowing installation in the mold base or in wear plates.

Customers who use the new SRT Slide Retainers will gain the following benefits:
Newly engineered springs offer tighter tolerances and increased performance.
Refined force distribution allows a more impact-free operation.
All springs are color coded for easy force range identification.
Existing (like) units can be converted to other force ratings simply by changing the springs, delivering even more flexibility.
