A slider differs from a spring based extender the rods are fully threaded and the head is adjusted by spinning knurled nuts to the desired stretch and tension.
The advantage is that you don’t have to pre stretch to put it on, don’t have to add rods, and can use as much or as little as you like.
The disadvantage is that without springs to compress to gauge the tension, it’s hard to know what tension you’re applying, more of a problem for new extender users I guess, I’m more interested in the stretch I’m getting than what force is required to obtain it.
