Maybe remake the channels out of one of the slick plastics???? That should allow even a tight fitting (warped) panel slide out (I think). Otherwise I would try to find some good baltic birch and use it.
I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.

no. the sliders can often get stuck immediately as you try pulling them out. and we put wheels far enough forward to prevent the slider's tops from hitting the roof of the cabinet when pulled out.
in fact they slide well for a while when we open the channels.

If you are already having trouble with them sliding now, have you considered that the problem may be exasperated when the panels are loaded with heavy tools? Perhaps doubling up the sliders may help?
