Schock Metal

The Difference. The Ball. The Slide.

"Specialists in Custom Engineered Ball Bearing Slides"

Schock has been manufacturing ball bearing slides for over 40 years. Our experience and trend-setting achievements have established the Schock brand slide as an industry leader. The unique physical properties of ball bearing slides form the basis for the systems superiority. Schock provides a reference point in the market by setting the highest standards for quality.

Best operating properties:
Lighter and quieter operation with large loads.

Long life without maintenance:
The higher the number of cycles, the more effective the self-cleaning ball track.

High Functional Safety:
Due to the elasticity of the slide rails, impacts are absorbed and will not cause permanent deformation.

Assurance

Due to material compression, properties of our system improve with the number of cycles. Problems with wear-and-tear will not arise because dirt is systematically driven out of the ball track by the self-cleaning effect. Furthermore, the high elasticity of the rails absorb impacts and contributes to the long working life of Schock ball bearing slides.

Systems Assembly

Schock's ball bearing slides provide quick assembly of the complete component. For example, the time consuming profile connection of full extension slides is no longer necessary. Drawers can now be installed in a matter of seconds due to Schock’s patented snap-connection technology. You will profit from the comprehensive experience of our application engineers by minimizing assembly costs even with complex special solutions.
