Hettich Quadro V6 10-Pack 9" Soft-Close Full Extension 90 lb Undermount Drawer Slide, Right Hand, Zinc, 9262843

Zinc Ball-Bearing Undermount Slide For Small Drawers That Demand a Precise Close

This is the right-hand member of Hettich's Quadro V6 9 inch undermount drawer slide — a concealed, full-extension runner with integrated soft-close and ball-bearing travel, sized for the spice pullouts, shallow vanity drawers, and small base-cabinet applications that standard 18 or 21 inch slides simply cannot serve. Sold as a single right-hand slide; order the matching left-hand member to make one working pair.

Key Features

• Full extension brings the entire 9 inch drawer box out to the cabinet face, so nothing stays hidden at the back.
• Integrated soft-close catches the drawer near the end of travel and settles it shut quietly, without a separate damper add-on.
• Ball-bearing carriage delivers smooth, precise movement under load — a step above roller-bearing economy slides at this capacity.
• 90 lb capacity per pair handles loaded spice drawers, small utility trays, and vanity inserts with room to spare.
• Fits face-frame and frameless cabinets, making it a flexible choice across traditional and modern casework.
• Right-hand orientation — this single member mounts on the right side of the cabinet; pair it with the left-hand version to complete a set.

Where the 9 Inch Length Earns Its Place

Most undermount slide programs start at 12 or 15 inches, which leaves small drawers — spice inserts in a 9 inch base, shallow pencil drawers in a desk, jewelry trays in a bedroom piece, and compact vanity drawers — without a concealed slide option that actually fits. The Quadro V6 at 9 inches fills that gap cleanly. Full extension at this length means the entire shallow box clears the cabinet opening, so small items at the back are reachable rather than buried. The soft-close mechanism matters just as much on a light drawer as a heavy one; an undamped small drawer bounces and rattles in a way that undermines an otherwise well-built piece.

Steel Construction With a Zinc Finish

The Quadro V6 runs on a steel ball-bearing carriage with a zinc finish — a functional, corrosion-resistant surface suited to the indoor cabinetry environments where this slide works. The zinc finish protects the steel members through years of service without contributing visible bulk, which matters on a 9 inch slide where clearances are already tight. Side clearance is 4mm per side, so build the drawer box to Hettich's published width formula for the Quadro V6 series to ensure the locking devices seat correctly. The slide accepts drawer sides from 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch (maximum 5/8 inch) — standard for 5/8 inch dovetailed or doweled boxes and thinner material alike.

Who Reaches for This Slide

Cabinet shops doing custom residential work encounter the 9 inch slide need more often than catalogs suggest — a built-in desk, a bathroom vanity tower, a kitchen island with a shallow spice row, or a bedroom case piece with small interior drawers. Designers specifying handle-less modern fronts on compact drawers need the concealed undermount look even when the box is short. The Quadro V6 at 9 inches serves all of them, running in both frameless European casework and traditional face-frame construction. For face-frame installs, the slide's rear end needs Quadro-series rear mounting brackets — sold separately and specific to the Quadro V6 family, not interchangeable with other brands or Hettich series.

The Right Tool for the Short Drawer

When the drawer box is 9 inches deep and the finish needs to be clean, this Quadro V6 right-hand member — paired with its left-hand counterpart and the correct Hettich accessories — delivers full extension, soft-close performance, and a concealed profile in the length the job actually calls for.
