Hettich Actro 5D 580mm Soft-Close Full Extension Undermount Drawer Slides, Ball Bearing Right hand Zinc - 9257111

Hettich Actro 5D 580mm Drawer Slide For Wooden Drawers

Hettich Actro 5D 580mm drawer slide is a soft-close, full extension undermount drawer runner designed for combining with wooden drawers, so the hardware stays concealed while the drawer travels fully out for clear access. The runner uses ball bearing technology, which supports smooth motion under load and helps drawers feel consistent along their stroke. A load capacity of 154 lb (70 kg), defined as load class XL and tested to EN 15338, Level 3, means this runner is engineered for demanding drawer applications where heavier contents and frequent cycling are expected. The right hand configuration matches installations that use handed undermount runners, aligning with projects that follow Hettichs Actro layout. A galvanized steel construction provides a robust base against wear in normal shop and jobsite environments.

Actro 5D Runner Details That Support Daily Use

• The soft-close function controls the last part of travel, so drawers close gently, which helps protect fronts and joinery from impact in everyday use.
• Full extension travel brings the drawer completely out on the undermount runner, which opens up the full drawer depth for loading, organizing, and hardware access.
• The undermount design works underneath wooden drawers, keeping the runner hidden from view and leaving the interior and exterior sides visually clean.
• Ball bearing guidance in the runner manages movement under load, which supports stable, quiet operation when drawers are opened and closed repeatedly.
• Load class XL with 154 lb capacity to EN 15338, Level 3, supports heavier contents, which suits storage that carries tools, dense hardware, or stacked materials.
• A galvanized steel runner body offers a durable metal structure, which supports long-term dimensional stability in typical cabinetry environments.

Adjustable Undermount Slide Setup And Fine Tuning

This Actro 5D runner offers tool-less height adjustment up to plus 3 mm at the drawer, which lets installers raise the front relative to the cabinet for consistent reveals. Side adjustment up to plus or minus 1.5 mm helps shift the drawer laterally, aligning gaps between fronts across a bank. Tilt adjustment up to plus 4 mm provides control of front tilt, which is useful for lining up top and bottom edges when cabinets are not perfectly square. Radial adjustment up to plus or minus 1.5 mm allows additional fine tuning at the interface, helping square the drawer front to the cabinet face so drawers track and sit correctly.

Using The Hettich 9257111 Runner In Real Projects

Where This Actro 5D Undermount Slide Fits Best

The Actro 5D undermount drawer runner is specified for combining with wooden drawers, so it fits projects where solid wood or panel drawer boxes are standard. Its 580 mm length targets cabinet depths built around that runner size, which suits many base and tall cabinet layouts. With load class XL at 154 lb capacity, this runner can support storage that holds heavier items, such as shop supplies, dense hardware bins, or stacked components in lower cabinets. The soft-close function suits residential and commercial cabinetry where controlled closing is valued, such as kitchens, workrooms, and office millwork. Because the runner is an undermount design, it fits applications where a clean drawer side appearance is important and hardware is kept out of sight.

Why Actro 5D Adjustments Matter For Drawer Alignment

The tool-less height adjustment up to plus 3 mm allows the installer to dial in vertical reveal without disassembling the drawer, which shortens setup time on multi-drawer runs. Side adjustment up to plus or minus 1.5 mm at the runner lets each drawer front be nudged left or right, which is key when aligning fronts across wide cabinet banks. Tilt adjustment up to plus 4 mm provides control over how the drawer front leans, so top and bottom corners can be aligned even when walls or cabinet sides are slightly out. Radial adjustment up to plus or minus 1.5 mm gives another axis of control, helping bring the drawer front square to the face frame or case edge so gaps stay even during movement. Together, these 5D adjustments support repeatable alignment and reduce the need to rework drawer boxes once the cabinets are set.
