One of the more notable additions is an interactive Slide Selection Guide that simplifies the product selection process. EGO Factory in Irvine, California worked with Accuride to develop the site to effectively communicate detailed information about the company’s ever-growing line of precision slide products. 

The site features technical information and hardware products for the Woodworking/Architectural and Industrial/Electromechanical markets. The Woodworking and Architectural section is focused towards woodworkers who design and build wood cabinetry, casework, and furniture. It also includes helpful information specific to architects, designers, and specifiers. The Industrial and Electromechanical section reaches out to an extended range of industries with custom and off-the-shelf solutions for applications such as major appliances, automotive/vehicular, machinery, and electronic enclosures.

Visitors may download technical sheets, CAD files, literature, and reference charts to assist in product and accessory kit selection. Authorized distributors are easily located by ZIP/postal code or state/province.

Santa Fe Springs, CA-Accuride announces the introduction of models 3832 Touch Release and 3832 Heavy-Duty Touch Release. These slides hold drawers, shelves, or cargo trays in a closed position until activated by touch. A push on the front of the drawer releases and propels it open about 2 inches.

Model 3832TR is well suited to portable cabinets, toolboxes, or equipment carts in medical, institutional, or manufacturing environments. It requires about 11 pounds of force to activate the release. Model 3832HDTR has a more robust positive hold, requiring a force of about 17–19 pounds. It is designed for more demanding applications subjected to vibration such as those found in RVs, aircraft, fire and rescue vehicles, or watercraft.

The Touch Release products eliminate the need for drawer pulls, providing the aesthetics of simple, clean drawer fronts, while offering a safer solution in medical and industrial equipment or cabinetry. These slides carry loads up to 100 pounds and have a lever disconnect to remove drawers quickly and easily. A cam adjustment feature allows for precise vertical alignment of drawer fronts.
