The slides used I believe are the 80/20 UniBearings. These come in a wide variety of styles, Doubled, long, and can fit any type of 80/20 (1010, 1515, and metric sizes). Check the catalog for more details.

I have been looking at the pictures that they have posted and I don't see any of the unibearings or any bearings for that matter. If I can figure out what they used for the slides, then I can easily cut about half of the weight out of our elevator.

for bearings we used Profile slider made by Bosch they are made of delrin.

if you want a stronger one you can go with slide bearings which are thicker but they do not have the center cut out for the t-block.

we get our stuff from Minuteman controls Wakefield MA 781-245-9550

sorry for the late reply had a busy weekend

I hope this works for you
