table apron drop leaf support uses a spring-loaded mechanism in heavy gauge steel to support table or work surface leaves in the raised position, so the leaf stays rigid under normal use on woodworking or furniture installations. The product is described as providing rigid support for raised leaves, which keeps the extended work surface stable when opened on a table apron. The spring-loaded design is built to prevent closing until spring-tension is relieved by pulling on the release ring, so the leaf remains held up until the user positively releases it. This release-ring action adds a security step when lowering the leaf, helping reduce accidental drop-down during use. The open length options of 6, 8, 10, or 12 inches, measured rivet-to-rivet, let installers select a support length that suits different leaf depths and table apron layouts. The unit is part of Selby Furniture Hardware table hardware for work surfaces and tables.
The table apron drop leaf support is identified as table apron drop leaf supports, so it works within a typical apron-to-leaf mounting arrangement on work surface or table edges. The open length options of 6, 8, 10 or 12 inches rivet-to-rivet give layout flexibility, letting installers position the fixed and moving ends along the apron and leaf so the link opens fully under the leaf depth. Because the support is spring-loaded, the arm applies spring force as it reaches the open position, holding the leaf up without extra props. The product prevents closing until spring-tension is relieved by pulling on the release ring, so the closing motion begins only when the ring is pulled. This release ring detail helps the installer and end user control the drop movement of the leaf during normal operation.
This table apron drop leaf support is described as table hardware in the work surface and tables category, so it is suited to drop leaf table applications and hinged auxiliary work surfaces built around an apron structure. The arm is identified with open lengths of 6, 8, 10 or 12 inches rivet-to-rivet, which fits projects with varying leaf depths, from compact utility tables to deeper work surface extensions. Because it provides rigid support for raised leaves, the mechanism serves installations where a firm feel is needed along the leaf edge, such as benches, counters, or tables that occasionally extend. The description as table apron drop leaf supports places it in assemblies where the fixed portion is the apron and the moving portion is the hinged leaf, matching common woodworking patterns for folding tops.
The spring-loaded wording in the description means this support uses a spring mechanism to hold the leaf when open, so the arm does not simply swing free but instead resists motion once engaged. That spring force combines with the rigid support claim to create a firm open position, so the leaf behaves like a continuation of the main surface during use. The statement that it prevents closing until spring-tension is relieved by pulling on the release ring explains that the arm locks in the extended state under load, only releasing when the operator pulls the ring. This ring-driven release gives predictable operation when lowering the leaf, as the user initiates the transition from rigid support to folded position through the spring-tension change. Heavy gauge steel construction supports this repeated action, providing a robust base for the moving components during regular table or work surface cycles.
The SDLS16U is a table apron drop leaf support in the table hardware category, so it functions as a support arm between a table apron and a hinged leaf on work surfaces and tables.
The spring-loaded mechanism applies tension as the arm opens, so the table leaf stays in a raised, rigid position under normal use until the spring-tension is released by pulling the ring.
Rigid support for raised leaves means that when the arm is extended, the leaf behaves like a fixed extension of the table, giving a firm feel for tasks across the joint line.
This Selby Furniture Hardware support prevents closing until spring-tension is relieved by pulling on the release ring, so the user starts the lowering motion by pulling that ring.
The table apron drop leaf support is described with 6, 8, 10 or 12 inch open lengths, measured rivet-to-rivet, so it can match various leaf widths and apron layouts.
The product is described as prime heavy gauge steel, so the arm and related parts are formed from substantial steel stock for table and work surface applications.
This table apron drop leaf support from Selby Furniture Hardware uses prime heavy gauge steel with a spring-loaded mechanism to provide rigid support for raised leaves, which suits work surfaces and tables needing dependable extension. The product prevents closing until spring-tension is relieved by pulling on the release ring, giving positive control when lowering the leaf in daily use. With open lengths of 6, 8, 10 or 12 inches rivet-to-rivet, it offers layout flexibility for different table apron and leaf dimensions. For projects handled through Wurth Baer Supply, this SDLS16U table hardware part aligns with applications requiring a defined, spring-held open position on drop leaf designs.
