The slide comprises an outer slide member which is removably connected to the alignment pin of the support cap, an inner slide member, and a ball-retainer member disposed therebetween having at least two flat strips of friction material coacting with at least one intermediate member formed by an endless belt of friction material--the flat strips being affixed to respective inner and outer slide members and the endless belt being movably mounted to the ball-retainer member for engagement with the flat strips.
