The Sugatsune RD-55/SMK is a tab pull from the RD Series, built for cabinet doors and drawer fronts where a 1-5/8 inch (41 mm) center-to-center spacing is required. Its low profile and restrained proportions make it a natural choice for smaller cabinetry, inset applications, and contemporary millwork where a standard bar pull would read as oversized.
A 1-5/8 inch center-to-center is a shorter hole pattern than the 3 inch or 3-3/4 inch spacings that dominate most residential hardware programs. That narrower spread suits a different set of fronts: small drawer boxes on a spice pull-out or a jewelry drawer, inset doors with a narrow stile, bathroom vanity applications where the front is shallow, and utility cabinetry where a larger pull would crowd the edge. On fronts like these, a standard bar pull either physically conflicts with the frame or looks out of proportion. The tab form keeps the pull within the front's footprint, and the 41 mm spacing keeps the mounting holes well clear of the edges on smaller pieces.
The pull is cast in zinc and finished in Smoke, a dark, low-chroma tone that reads as a muted charcoal rather than a flat black. Unlike a Matte Black finish, Smoke carries a slight warmth that softens the contrast against both light and dark cabinet fronts. It suits a kitchen or bath where the hardware is meant to recede into the cabinetry rather than draw attention, and it pairs naturally with gray, greige, and deep-toned wood veneers without competing with them. The tab profile keeps the footprint tight: 2-3/16 inches end to end, 3/8 inch wide, sitting 15/16 inch off the door face.
Cabinet shops finishing out small-drawer banks, designers specifying inset or frameless kitchens with narrow stile dimensions, and contractors sourcing hardware for bathroom vanities or built-in millwork will find the 41 mm spacing gives them an option that standard residential hardware programs often do not carry in a refined, contemporary form. The RD Series is a Sugatsune line, so coordination with companion pieces in the same series is straightforward for projects running consistent hardware across multiple applications. This pull is for indoor cabinetry. The Smoke finish over zinc is not rated for exterior or high-humidity environments.
The 1-5/8 inch (41 mm) center-to-center is significantly shorter than the common 3-3/4 inch (96 mm) residential spacing. These are not interchangeable hole patterns. Check your existing hole spacing or your drilling template before ordering to confirm which spacing your fronts require.
No. Smoke is a distinct finish name in the RD Series. It is a dark, muted tone in the black color family but carries different undertones from a standard Matte Black. Do not assume it will match Matte Black hardware from another series or brand.
Yes. A tab pull mounts the same way on a door or a drawer front, and the grip works in both orientations. The compact size makes it particularly well suited to smaller doors and drawer fronts where a longer pull would look out of scale.
The RD Series includes hardware in multiple center-to-center sizes and finishes. Specify companion pieces from the same series to maintain a consistent profile and finish across a cabinet program.
When the hole pattern is 41 mm and the application calls for something more refined than a utility pull, the RD-55/SMK delivers the right spacing, a minimal tab profile, and a Smoke finish that works quietly within the cabinetry rather than against it.
