Usage
This full-extension 700mm soft-close ball bearing runner is designed for drawers in furniture, industrial equipment, and machine construction where controlled, smooth movement and quiet closure are important.
Advantages
- Enables the drawer to extend fully for complete access to contents
- Soft-close mechanism ensures gentle and silent closing
- Robust load capacity of up to 45 kg per pair supports heavier drawers
- Smooth ball bearing action reduces wear on hardware and cabinetry
- If mounted flat (horizontally), load capacity decreases to approximately 25% of the rated value—a consideration in some installations
Specifications
- Galvanized steel design with hardened steel ball bearings for durability and resistance to corrosion[3]
- Suitable for intensive use; tested in demanding furniture and industrial applications[3]
- Total length: 700 mm; height: 45 mm; thickness: approximately 12.7 mm; maximum dynamic load: up to 45 kg when mounted vertically[3]
- Differentiating feature: integrated soft-close damping system that automatically slows and pulls the drawer closed without slamming[3][6][9]
How it works
The slide uses precision ball bearings for smooth extension. When closing, a hydraulic damper within the soft-close mechanism gently catches the final movement, automatically drawing the drawer shut quietly and securely after a light push[6][7][9]. No manual force is needed beyond an initial close.
