Hettich Actro 5D 580 mm Soft-Close Full Extension 154 lb Undermount Drawer Slide, Right Hand, Zinc, 9257111

Heavy Capacity And Five-Axis Adjustment in One Concealed Runner

The Hettich Actro 5D is a full-extension, soft-close undermount drawer slide in the 580mm length, rated 154 lb per pair — well above the standard kitchen-drawer class — and built around five-axis front adjustment to true the drawer after installation. This listing is the right-hand runner, sold as a single.

Key Features

• 154 lb capacity per pair — covers heavily loaded drawers that standard 90 to 100 lb undermounts cannot handle.
• Five-axis (5D) front adjustment — lets the installer fine-tune height, side, tilt, depth, and twist after the drawer is hung.
• Full extension — the entire 580mm drawer box comes out to the cabinet face for complete access to the back.
• Integrated soft-close — a damper catches the drawer near the end of travel and settles it shut silently.
• Ball bearing carriage with zinc-finished steel construction — smooth, precise travel under sustained load.
• Right-hand orientation — pairs with the left-hand Actro 5D runner to make one working set.

Where the 580mm Length and High Capacity Work Together

A 580mm runner is well suited to deeper base cabinets — standard European 550mm-depth boxes and similar applications where a shorter slide would fall short or require a filler block. At 154 lb per pair, the Actro 5D handles drawer categories that push past the kitchen norm: deep utensil and flatware drawers carrying full sets of heavy cookware, wide vegetable and produce pull-outs, and pantry-style drawers loaded with canned goods. The 5D adjustment range adds particular value on high-count production runs, where dialing in each front after hanging is faster than shimming at rough install. For shops building to a tight face-reveal spec, the ability to correct height, side, tilt, depth, and twist from the front of the drawer saves significant time per opening.

Construction and Finish

Actro 5D runners use a ball-bearing carriage between steel members, which gives this slide a more precise feel and higher cycle durability under load than roller-based alternatives in the same size class. The zinc finish is a functional corrosion-resistant coating for indoor cabinet environments. At 580mm closed, the runner is built for 5/8 inch (16mm) or thinner drawer sides down to 1/2 inch (12.7mm); the box-width formula, bottom recess, and rear notch must be built to Hettich's specification for this series. The soft-close damper is integrated into the slide, not a clip-on addition, so it stays calibrated through the drawer's service life without field adjustment.

Who Should Specify Actro 5D

This runner targets production cabinet shops and custom builders who need a step up from the 90 to 100 lb undermount tier without moving to a specialty heavy-duty product. It is the right fit for frameless cabinetry where the slide mounts directly to the cabinet side panel, for projects with demanding drawer-front alignment tolerances, and for boxes where the depth and load rule out lighter-duty options. Designers and contractors specifying premium residential kitchens with deep storage drawers will find the combination of high capacity and five-axis adjustment reduces callbacks and on-site corrections.
