DRAWER SLIDE SYSTEMS 2019
This document provides a detailed overview of Fulterer's drawer slide systems, covering their history, product innovations, technical specifications, and compliance with industry standards.
Fulterer AG & Co KG, established in 1956, is a leader in drawer slide technology. The company expanded globally by acquiring Merz-Meyer AG in 2007 and established Fulterer USA Inc. in 1989.
Fulterer focuses on customer-driven innovations, investing in manufacturing and tooling technology to improve product quality and cost efficiency. Their products are distributed worldwide through a network of wholesale distributors.
Fulterer's drawer slides are categorized into roller bearing and linear ball bearing types. Roller bearing slides use materials like Nylon and Delrin®, while linear ball bearing slides use case-hardened steel balls.
- Regular-Extension: Extends approximately 75% of its length.
- Full Extension: Extends 100% or more, with options like Progressive Action and Telescopic Action for load support.
Load ratings are based on dynamic cycle tests of 50,000 cycles. Roller bearing slides are tested at 600 mm, and ball bearing slides at 450 mm.
Various assembly methods include round, oblong, or keyhole-shaped holes, assembly brackets, top and bottom mount brackets, bayonets, and hanging hooks. Drawer slides can be mounted using cabinet profiles, pull-out slides, drawer profiles, and side mounts.
- Self-closing by gravity: Utilizes angled profiles.
- Automatic self-closing with ECD: Uses damping cylinders and springs.
- Self-closing by spring: Incorporates a spring mechanism.
Fulterer's products conform to standards such as ANSI/BIFMA, ANSI/KCMA, ANSI-BHMA, NSF/ANSI, and SEFA. Manufacturers are recommended to test samples for performance and safety.
