Progressive Components Introduces New Slide Retainers

Wauconda, IL – Progressive Components, a leading supplier of tooling components for the injection mold, blow mold and die cast die industries worldwide, introduces the latest component utilizing Friction Free™ technology: the Slide Retainer.

For retention of a mold's side actions, Progressive now offers a standard new Slide Retainer that eliminates the resistance and abrasion that occurs with other slide locking products.

Progressive’s exclusive Slide Retention Technology, dubbed SRT, comprises five units in both metric and inch standard sizes. The SRT features a roller that engages into a groove within the side action assembly. An engineered spring has been proven after millions of cycles tested.

Advantages for the molder include maintenance free operation, and reliable slide retention. For the mold builder, this item is significantly more compact that other units and easier to machine, yet it holds a greater amount of weight.

Suitable for any injection mold application, but especially advantageous in Clean Room, Medical, Food Packaging, or Electronics applications, Friction Free components offer new advantages for molders and mold builders.
