Slide valve
I think that the proper Czech word should be "šoupátko".
Note from asker:
| I'm now checking through the whole job and will look out for clues as to whether this is a valve. I hope to find a drawing illustrating the šoupadlo. |

Comment: "Thank you. "Slide valve" is what I used in the end, because it seems that this is how most people would understand the word. I pointed out to the client that there are problems with lack of context here and at other points in the text."

A more general term if there is no context.

The additional context is still too general I'm afraid. Other possibilities:
sliding part, sliding piece

| I don't know if the additional context I've given throws any more light on this. Perhaps it's a "slider" or "sliding component". |

There should be a drawing to illustrate all this, but I haven't found it.
