The self-closing action is achieved through a spring-loaded device that activates about 1-1/2 inches from the closed position. This integrated device is designed to close drawers completely and keep them closed, eliminating the hazard of half-open drawers, while also keeping drawer fronts neatly aligned.
Model 3832SC offers a 100-lb. load rating, full extension and comes in even lengths of 12 to 28 inches. This product is RoHS compliant.

This feature helps prevent tipping of multi-drawer cabinets and offers a platform to integrate optional central- or gang-locking actuators to secure cabinet contents.

Model 3641 carries loads up to 180 pounds and drawers to 42-inches-wide. Rail-and-pocket style mounting brackets make it easy to disconnect drawers. This product is suitable for toolboxes, mobile carts, metal furniture, storage cabinets, lateral files, and other applications where the safety feature of the interlock would provide benefit.

The interlock mechanism is located at the front of the slide. This provides easy access during installation. The cut-to-length aluminum connecting rods allow for varying drawer heights within the same cabinet. When installed as a pair, the 3641 slides offer the increased strength of the interlock mechanism on both sides. For less demanding applications, Model 3641 may be paired with non-locking companion slide Model 3642. These products are available in lengths of 14"–28" (in 2" increments), and 17" [353–709 and 429 mm]. Finishes include clear zinc (C) and black (CB).

The 7900 slides offer full extension, a load rating up to 350 pounds, and accommodate drawers up to 42" wide. For added versatility, the slides may be flat mounted at a lower load capacity of up to 150 lbs. per pair.

Designed for applications such as mobile toolboxes and utility vehicle storage, the 7900 slides are a good drop-in alternative for .75" side space projects, giving fabricators additional slide options for mid-range loads, while increasing the aesthetics of the finished product. 

Model 7950 does not offer a disconnect method, while Model 7957 has a handed lever disconnect. Both models have an enhanced ball retainer design, which mitigates retainer migration. Two special order models in a smaller cross section of .724" are also available: models 7930 (non-disconnect) and 7937 (handed lever disconnect). All products are available in lengths of 12" to 36" in a clear zinc finish.

Model 115 may be side, flat, or vertically mounted. When mounted vertically, it may be used as a guide in non load-bearing applications. This product provides a low-cost solution for component guidance, support, or adjustment in a wide range of applications such as access to laptop docking stations in utility vehicles; bins for postal vehicles; reading machines for the visually impaired; traffic barriers; diagnostic equipment; and material handling in manufacturing machinery.

When mounted flat in pairs, Model 115 offers up to a 132-pound load rating; side mounted installations are up to 110 pounds per pair. A guide belt synchronizes the moving elements of the slide, ensuring smooth and consistent travel, while the moving member is fully supported on ball bearings at all times.

This product has been tested to 10,000 cycles and is available in zinc in lengths of 12" to 28" in 2" increments, plus 32", 36", and 40". It is RoHS compliant.

Accuride International manufactures precision ball bearing slides for a variety of applications and has six locations worldwide; each governed by a quality management system registered to ISO 9001:2000.

This product expands storage in medical or industrial supply carts, or works well in projects calling for interior and exterior access such as drawers or trays used at a drive-through pharmacy or bank.

Offering a 100-pound load rating, Model 0363 has a detent that keeps the drawer or chassis in place at the center point of the slide travel. The slide fully extends in both directions from the center detent to give complete access to drawer contents. There is no disconnect, which ensures conveyances are not unintentionally removed. This product has been tested to 80,000 cycles and is available in zinc in lengths of 16", 20", 24", and 28". It is RoHS compliant.

The Ascent conceals and secures screens when not in use, keeping surfaces free of clutter. To access screens, users press lightly on the top of the lift support column, which activates it to rise in less than 2 seconds.

The Ascent Lift does not require power. The smooth movement is controlled through weights, which are added to counterbalance the screen. The main support column swivels left and right 112.5º to expand viewing angles and the hole pattern provides a wide range of bracket and screen mounting options.

The Ascent is quick and easy to install; the unit is simply aligned to the center of the mounting case and 8 fasteners are installed. Standard packaging includes a cable management kit and a set of weights. Additional weight packs may be purchased to accommodate lighter screens as well as optional fixed or tilt VESA bracket kits for attaching screens or other components to the unit.

The slim and compact design makes the Ascent a multi-purpose solution for a wide range of applications such as customer service counters or kiosks, manufacturing workstations, metal office furniture, medical equipment or carts, or industrial diagnostic equipment. Other uses may be found in motor homes, marine applications, and industrial and mobile construction or office trailers.

The user starts the opening and closing action and the slide does the rest. When the drawer is opened, at about the mid-point of travel the assisting forces balance, resulting in a neutral zone where the drawer remains in a steady position. Once the drawer is further extended to about two-thirds of its travel, the slide finishes the opening process. Conversely, as the drawer is pushed inward past the neutral zone, the Action-Assist™ kicks in and pulls the drawer closed.

The installation of this slide is simple and straightforward; it does not require electricity to operate and there are no wires or transformers. Other than minor drawer box changes, installation is very similar to a standard, side mount 3832 full extension slide.

The 3832AA is an affordable solution for those seeking assisted drawer opening and closing. This product also supplies an attractive upgrade to applications such as lighter duty equipment or tool trays and drawers.

In addition to being RoHS compliant, the Action-Assist™ operates through the simple principle of stored and released energy. It does not require the use of power resources; the product’s operation is clean and renewable.

This product is ADA compliant, requiring a pull-force of only 2-3 pounds, making it a good choice for Universal Design projects. The Action-Assist™ has a 100-pound load rating and is available in even lengths of 12" to 28" in a clear zinc or black finish.
