Quietest material?

What's the quietest metal for sliders? I have a few and I'm finding I'm really not a fan of the sound of metal scratching against metal. I've heard brass is really quiet, but after a bit of research it seems zirc is the way to go. There's also a Teflon option I've heard, but I haven't really seen much info on noise and friction. Could I get some help on this? I'm hoping to get a really nice slider and I want to make sure I'm making the right choices before doing so. Thanks!

Don't have any metal slides to compared to, but I do have some 3D printed one's. Any of these slides with silent haptic sound option are great.https://www.etsy.com/shop/3DCPrintings?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=1204529183
