The Sugatsune ESR-DC series 20 inch full-extension drawer slide is built entirely of stainless steel, making it the right call for installations where moisture, cleaning agents, or food-service conditions would degrade a standard zinc-finished slide. Rated 97 lb per pair, this side-mount ball bearing slide delivers full extension, a hold-in anti-rebound detent, and a non-handed design in a single, professionally finished package.
A zinc-finished slide is the right choice for the vast majority of interior cabinet drawers. But certain environments put that finish under pressure: commercial kitchens subject to daily washdowns, marine galley cabinets, outdoor bar or grill stations, lab casework exposed to cleaning chemicals, and high-humidity utility rooms where condensation is a constant. In those settings, stainless steel is the material of record, not an upgrade. The ESR-DC series puts that material in a full-featured side-mount ball bearing slide at a practical load rating for the applications that need it.
Every member of this slide — cabinet member, intermediate member, and drawer member — is stainless steel. Unlike zinc-plated slides that rely on a surface coating for corrosion resistance, stainless steel carries its resistance through the material itself. The finish is the metal. That distinction matters in washdown environments where surface coatings degrade over time and cleaning cycles. Sold as a pair, priced per pair.
Fabricators and installers specifying drawer hardware for commercial food-service equipment, marine interiors, laboratory casework, or any cabinet that sees moisture or aggressive cleaning products will find the ESR-DC series fits their specification. The 20 inch nominal length suits the most common drawer depths in kitchen and utility cabinetry. The non-handed design simplifies ordering — one part number covers both sides of the drawer — and the standard 1/2 inch clearance means no special drawer box sizing is required beyond the normal side-mount formula.
The material type is stainless steel throughout — not a coating or plating over mild steel. The corrosion resistance runs through the metal itself, which is what makes it appropriate for washdown and high-moisture applications.
It is a mechanical catch that holds the drawer in the closed position. Push the drawer shut and it stays there — the detent stops it from bouncing back open. This is not a soft-close or self-close feature; the drawer does not slow down or get pulled shut automatically.
The slide nominal length is 20 inches — that is the closed length, not the travel distance. Full extension means the drawer member travels approximately the full slide length, bringing the complete drawer out to the cabinet face. Slide length and drawer travel are two separate numbers.
No. The ESR-DC series is non-handed — both slides in the pair are identical and fit either side of the drawer. Order the quantity of pairs your project requires.
Side-mount slides in face-frame cabinets need rear support because the cabinet side is set back from the face frame. Add the appropriate rear mounting brackets for your installation. Confirm bracket compatibility with the ESR-DC series before ordering.
When the installation demands corrosion resistance that zinc plating cannot reliably deliver, the Sugatsune ESR-DC series brings stainless steel construction together with full extension, a practical load rating, and a hold-in detent into a non-handed side-mount slide ready for the bench.
