How to choose the type of drawer slides?
Roller type
These drawer slides, which were the first generation of silent drawer slides, have been around for a long time. Since 2005, the steel ball slides have gradually been replaced by a new generation of furniture. Roller slide structure is relatively simple, consisting of a pulley and two tracks, can meet daily push and pull needs, but bearing capacity is poor, lacks the buffer and rebound function, and is commonly used with computer keyboard drawers and light drawers.
Ball type
Steel ball drawer slides are two-folds and three-folds metal slides. The structure installed on the side of the drawer is the most common. The installation is simple and takes up little space. A high-quality steel ball slide can ensure that the push-pull slide is smooth and has a high load-bearing force. The slide can be equipped with either a buffer closing or a press-rebound opening function. Steel ball slides are gradually replacing roller-type slide rails in modern furniture, becoming the dominant force in modern furniture slides.
Buffering drawer slide
The Soft close drawer slide is a type of slide rail inside that refers to an anechoic buffer effect that provides a cushioning effect using liquid and has an ideal cushioning effect. Automatic selection is simple and quick with slide rails. It uses a completely new technology to adjust to the closing speed of the drawer. When closing to the last distance, the drawer will use hydraulic pressure to slow down, reducing impact force and creating a comfortable effect.
