LOW FRICTION SLIP SURFACE WITH INDIVIDUAL CO-EXTRUDED LIGHT COLOURED BEADS BONDED TO DARK COLOURED BASE

摘要

A low friction slip surface track for a merchandizing display rack including an extruded plastic base plate and a plurality of co-extruded plastic beads. The beads are formed of a compounded plastic, a mixture of high impact styrene and a percentage of silicone varying from 0.5 percent (0.5%) to 10 percent (10%). The base plate is formed of pure high impact styrene. The silicone in the beads makes the beads of lower surface friction than the base plate, facilitating the transfer of product down the track. The beads are formed of a light color plastic. The base plate is formed of a dark plastic to hide dirt while still creating an attractive merchandizing track and rack employing the track.
