The Sugatsune ESR-DC series 28 inch slide is a full-extension, side-mount ball bearing drawer slide manufactured from stainless steel — the material choice when zinc plating is not enough. Rated 87 lb per pair, it brings the entire drawer out to the cabinet face and holds it shut with a hold-in anti-rebound detent. Sold as a pair.
In most dry, indoor cabinet work a zinc-finished slide is the practical choice. The ESR-DC series is for installations where that finish is the wrong call: food-service counters that get wiped down with sanitizing sprays, coastal or marine cabinet work where salt-laden air accelerates surface corrosion, commercial kitchens, laboratory casework, and any environment with regular moisture exposure. The stainless steel members hold up where epoxy- or zinc-coated slides would pit and seize over time. At 28 inches, the slide also suits deeper drawer boxes — pull-out shelves, utility storage, and full-depth commercial cabinet drawers that need the whole interior accessible.
Both the cabinet member and drawer member are stainless steel — this is not a zinc slide with a stainless-look coating. Ball bearings run in full-length raceways for smooth, consistent travel under load. The hold-in anti-rebound detent is a mechanical catch built into the slide; it holds the drawer in the closed position and prevents rebound when the drawer is pushed shut firmly. There is no spring assist and no damper — the drawer stays wherever it is left and requires a deliberate pull to open. The non-handed format means both slides in the pair are identical; no left or right designation to track.
Specify the ESR-DC series when the installation environment rules out a standard zinc finish. Food-service fabricators, commercial millwork shops fitting out restaurant and hospitality casework, and marine cabinetmakers are the natural buyers. It also suits residential applications in outdoor kitchens and high-humidity bathrooms where drawer hardware sees real moisture. The 87 lb per pair rating covers a loaded commercial drawer without crossing into the heavy-duty class, so it fits standard production frameless and face-frame cabinets equally well. For face-frame installations, rear mounting support is required at the back of the slide; consult Sugatsune's ESR-DC series installation documentation for compatible rear hardware.
The slide members are stainless steel — not a zinc or chrome plating over carbon steel. That distinction matters in wet and corrosive environments where surface coatings eventually fail.
No. The hold-in anti-rebound detent keeps the drawer in the closed position once it is pushed shut and prevents it from bouncing back open, but it does not assist closing. There is no spring and no damper — this is a standard-motion slide with a stay-closed catch.
The slide is full extension, so the drawer member travels approximately the full 28 inch slide length — the entire drawer clears the cabinet opening. Slide length and travel are separate specs; full extension means travel is essentially equal to the slide length, not less.
No. The ESR-DC series is non-handed — both slides in the pair are identical and fit either side of the drawer without modification.
The ESR-DC4513-28 is priced and sold per pair — one cabinet member and one drawer member for each side of the drawer arrive together.
For any drawer installation where moisture, cleaning chemistry, or coastal air makes a standard zinc slide the wrong long-term choice, the Sugatsune ESR-DC series in stainless steel gives you full-extension access, a reliable stay-closed detent, and construction that holds up to the environment — without stepping up to a specialty heavy-duty class.
