Could the bottom line cause be "made in china". Reliable name products no longer mean quality. Many have prostituted themselves to chinese quality for name brand profits. Sorry.. Just a thought..
Nothing to be sorry about and yes I think it does have something to do with it. I noticed that my new "China Made" slide bar is a very rough casting, more so than the other ever was. Therefore it drags more, generates more friction pad residue and cannot be run as tight as I always have the older American made one.
