US Patent 6901629 Heavy duty molded equipment slide

A slide formed from an upwardly cupped plate made of an acetal copolymer matrix into which a lubricant is incorporated with slidability and load baring capability making it suitable for use in moving furniture or other heavy objects across a floor. A non-slip pad formed of a synthetic plastic material is seated in a recess formed in an upper face of the plate. The plate is shaped such that when it is partially inserted under a heavy object, a forward edge of a lower face of the plate rises above the floor such that the slide will pass over obstacles.
