Hettich Quadro V6 18" Soft-Close Full Extension 90 lb Undermount Drawer Slide, Left Hand, Zinc, 9304271

Zinc Ball-Bearing Undermount Slide Built for Soft-Close Precision

The Hettich Quadro V6 is an 18 inch full-extension undermount drawer slide with integrated soft-close, sold here as the left-hand member. It runs on ball bearings, carries 90 lb per pair, and suits drawer boxes with sides from 1/2 to 5/8 inch thick. Pair it with the matching right-hand Quadro V6 slide to make one complete set for a single drawer.

Key Features

• Full extension brings the entire drawer out to the cabinet face, so nothing stays buried at the back.
• Integrated soft-close catches the drawer near the end of travel and settles it shut without slamming.
• Ball-bearing carriage delivers smooth, consistent travel through years of daily use.
• 90 lb weight capacity per pair handles loaded kitchen and bath drawers without strain.
• Fits 1/2 to 5/8 inch drawer sides — the standard range for dovetailed and doweled box construction.
• Suits face-frame and frameless cabinets, with the right rear hardware for each construction type.

Where This Slide Earns Its Place

An 18 inch undermount slide fits the depth that shows up constantly in kitchen base cabinets, bath vanities, and furniture pieces built around standard box sizing. Full extension means a cook reaching for the back of a spice drawer, or a homeowner pulling the last item from a bathroom drawer, gets to the whole interior without digging. The ball-bearing mechanism holds that smooth pull through a high cycle count — not just on the first open, but on the thousandth. At 90 lb per pair, this slide covers nearly every residential drawer application, including pots-and-pans drawers and heavily stocked utility pulls.

Steel, Zinc, and the Build Behind It

The Quadro V6 members are steel with a zinc finish — a functional, corrosion-resistant coating built for indoor cabinet environments. Because the slide rides under the drawer box and stays fully concealed when the drawer is open, the finish works quietly in the background. Ball bearings running in formed steel raceways are what the buyer actually feels: consistent resistance, no side play, and a controlled stop when the soft-close takes over in the last inch of travel.

Who Orders This Slide and Why

Cabinet shops running production lines in face-frame or frameless construction both reach for the Quadro V6 when the spec calls for a concealed, full-extension soft-close slide at a professional grade. The 18 inch length is one of the most common depths on a standard kitchen run, so this SKU moves in quantity. Designers specifying premium residential work get the clean, hardware-free interior that undermount slides provide. Homeowners replacing worn or noisy slides in existing cabinetry find the Quadro V6 a direct upgrade when the drawer box is already built to 5/8 inch sides. In face-frame cabinets, the rear of the slide needs the series-specific Quadro rear mounting brackets — these are sold separately and are not interchangeable with brackets from other systems. Front locking devices are also Quadro-specific; confirm what is included with your order and what needs to be added.

The Right Slide in the Right Hand

Match this left-hand Quadro V6 with its right-hand counterpart, build the drawer box to spec, add the rear brackets your cabinet construction requires, and you have a full-extension soft-close undermount drawer that performs every time the drawer is pulled.
