ABSTRACT:
An automatically compensating gib assembly includes spring loaded pins resiliently biased outwardly from longitudinal bores at each end of a movable gib element. End caps fixedly mounted at each end of a mating fixed gib element are provided with enlarged conical bores which present a downwardly inclined surface against which the spring loaded pins is urged to thus resiliently bias the movable gib downwardly relative to the fixed gib to automatically compensate for side loading variations in a slide assembly.
