Elite Plus Rear Mounting Bracket For Grass Slides

Elite Plus rear mounting bracket gives Grass America Elite undermount drawer slide installations a left-hand rear support point, so the soft-closing carriage roller slide can work as intended over its full extension range. This left-hand V-notch rear bracket with socket is part of the Elite undermount system, which uses a fully concealed carriage roller slide to carry the drawer under the box. That concealed layout keeps the slide mechanism out of the cabinet opening, which protects the smooth, soft, self-closing function built into the Elite slide. The Elite undermount slide provides full extension, so drawers can be pulled out to access the entire depth, which helps in cabinet layouts where usable space matters. The Airmatic shock absorber system in the Elite slide slows the momentum of the drawer, providing a soft, quiet, easy close that is protected when the rear bracket holds the slide consistently.

Key Rear Bracket Details For Elite Installers

• The Elite undermount carriage roller slide is fully concealed, so the rear bracket helps keep the slide geometry stable behind the drawer, which supports smooth motion in cabinet installations.

Using a V-notch left-hand rear bracket with socket in that role supports straightforward positioning of the slide relative to the frame, which helps installers keep drawer boxes aligned with the opening.
