Swivel-in sliding block, stainless steel
The Bosch Rexroth Swivel-in sliding block in stainless steel is designed for the AL Modular System with C6, C8, and C10 slots, offering free rotation and axial movement within the profile groove for fast, flexible positioning. Available in M3–M8 thread sizes, it supports a maximum load of 2200 N and a tightening torque of 10 Nm. Its swivelling mounting and ESD compliance make it suitable for applications requiring electrostatic discharge control and organized cable routing.

Swivel-in sliding block, stainless steel
When a connection must withstand high forces, the sliding block is the right profile nut: it bears on a wide surface under the slot lips and distributes the load better than the T-nut. Slide it in from the profile end before closing the frame and move it to the mounting point. It is the original Bosch Rexroth component, in zinc-plated or stainless steel.
Why choose it
Withstands high forces
In slot C8 it reaches 6000 N versus 4000 N for the T-nut; in slot C10 up to 24000 N in the largest profiles.
Inserted from the end
Slide it in from the end of the profile and move it to the mounting point: it must be planned before closing the frame.
Stays where you put it
With the sliding block spring it stays in position in the slot, even on vertical uprights.
Zinc-plated or stainless
Zinc-plated steel for all slots; in slot C6 there is also a stainless steel version for damp environments.
Choose it if…
- The connection must withstand high forces
- You can insert the nuts before closing the frame
- You fit brackets, connectors and plates in load-bearing joints
- You need a stainless version in slot C6
Choose another solution if…
- You need to add an accessory to an already closed frame: Standard sliding block →
- A light fixing with front insertion is enough for you: T-nut →
- You want to make custom fixings with several threads: Sliding block profile, 1000 mm bar →
