SPRING SLIDE STOP

Slide or Door Slide or Drawer Slide are blanket terms used in the industry for all ball bearing slides, telescopic slides, drawer runners, linear slides, rails, and various other guides. Slides are used in refrigerators and freezers, merchandisers, holding and service cabinets and more. A slides movement describes exactly how the slide operates inside of the cabinet. Typically, this is either telescoping movement, which occurs in stages or progressive movement where the various slide members move simultaneously.

A spring is an elastic object that stores mechanical energy. Springs are typically made of spring steel. There are many spring designs. In everyday use, the term often refers to coil springs. When a conventional spring, without stiffness variability features, is compressed or stretched from its resting position, it exerts an opposing force approximately proportional to its change in length.

A stop is a part designed to restrict the movement of a rotary mechanism, linear (sliding) mechanism or its components. It protects a mechanism from loss of adjustment or damage due to extreme movement. A stop or stopper may also be designed to calibrate and halt the flow of solids, liquids or gases.
