ABSTRACT:
A slider block assembly and method for making the same are disclosed. The slider block assembly is for use with an elongate guide channel having a pair of laterally spaced apart side walls and a pair of axially spaced apart base walls joined to the side walls with one of the base walls having an elongate slot therein. The slider block assembly comprises a slider block having a socket therein and a fastener having a generally spherical ball. Preferably, the slider block is axisymmetric having an annular side wall flange and an annular base flange extending from a main body. The side wall and base flanges are cooperatively biased against the side walls and base walls when the slider block is inserted in the guide channel to prevent the slider block from rattling therewithin while allowing the slider block to slide or roll within the guide channel. The slider block assembly is preferably made by molding, under heat and pressure, a slider block which includes a socket, maintaining the slider block above a predetermined elevated temperature, applying dry heat to the slider block if necessary, pressing the fastener into the socket while the slider block is above the elevated temperature, and then cooling the slider block assembly.
