Introduction

358

The drawer slide section consists of ve series with full and partial extensions in a lightweight design. They are ideal for applications in which the weight of the rail is just as important as its load capacity and rigidity.

Wide RangeStrokes available from 240mm to 1100mm.

Options• Detachable rail.• “Soft close”.

Cost-effectiveFor light - medium duty loads when a quality, reliable slide is required.

Drawer SlidesThese are pressed steel drawer slides for light/medium duty applications; they are hot-drip galvanised. They are at the lighter end of our typical telescopic slides (see separate sections) but are still very reliable and cost-effective.

Heavy Duty ApplicationsIf you have a heavier duty or very repetitive application, please refer to our Telescopic Slides. These are made from cold-drawn steel sections (rather than pressed steel).

Speci cations

• All systems are lubricated for life.• Hot-dipped galvanised steel or chromated

steel (RoHS compliant).• Zinc-plated steel or plastic ball cage. • Hardened carbon steel ball bearings.• Maximum operating speed 0,5 m/s.• Temperature range (mainly +10°C to +40°C).• Temporary storage and transport temperature

Installation Instructions

General

• The existing internal stops are not designed to stop a moving load. They are only supposed to retain the ball-cage and prevent the internal parts from sliding out of the assembly. An external end-stop must always be installed to stop a moving load.

• To acheive optimum running movement, high service life and rigidity, x the drawer slide extensions with all accessible holes onto a rigid and level surface. When using an extension pair, please ensure the mounting surfaces are parallel, and that the assembly is rigid.

• Drawer slides can be used in automatic systems. For this, the stroke should remain constant and the extension speed must be checked. The movement of the moveable rail is enabled by internal ball cages, which may experience an offset from the original position with differing strokes. This phase offset can have a negative effect on the running properties or limit the stroke. If differing strokes occur in an application, the driving force must be suf cient to appropriately synchronise the ball cage offset. As an alternative, an extra full stroke cycle can be performed after every certain number of cycles, in order to re-phase the ball cage to its correct position.

Horizontally installed guidesHorizontally installed drawer slides can support tension or compression loads. For the horizontal mounting of slides with compression loads, please take the following conditions into account:

• The Hertzian stress of the balls is no longer effective due to the expansion of the rail pro le.

• The nominal tension tolerance of +0,5mm is eliminated due to the installation con guration.

Both the above mentioned conditions contribute to a signi cant reduction of the axial load capacity. Horizontally-mounted rails (axial load) also exhibit a considerably higher de ection at the extended tips if compared to traditionally vertically mounted rails (radial load).

Vertical InstallationThe load capacities are guidelines for a drawer slide vertically mounted with uniform load distribution, and xed to the structures using all mounting holes. The load values must be reduced if the load is not distributed evenly.

Horizontal InstallationFor horizontal mounted drawer slides the load capacity is reduced by approximately 50-60�.

SpeedThe extension speed is determined by the size of the moveable parts of the drawer slides. Therefore, the maximum extension speed is inversely proportional to the overall length of the extending rails. The maximum extension speed is also directly related to the applied load and operating time. The data refers to continuous operation at maximum load capacity.

TemperatureThe operating temperature range of the drawer slides is +�0�� to +�0��. Temporary storage and transport temperature is -�0�� to +�0�� maximum.

LubricationAll drawer slides are lubricated for life. Different lubricants for special applications are available on re�uest, e.g. lubricant with FDA approval is available for use in the food industry. For more information on this, please contact our Technical Department.

Corrosion ProtectionThe base material for the drawer slide product family is cold-rolled, hot-dipped galvanised steel. The cathodic edge protection offers a good combination of �uality and cost-ef ciency. The surface protection conforms to �oH�.
