Hettich Actro 5D 380 mm Soft-Close Full Extension 88 lb Undermount Drawer Slide, Left Hand, Zinc, 9257069

Undermount Drawer Slide for Frameless Cabinets With 380mm Drawers

The Hettich Actro 5D is the left-hand runner of a full-extension, soft-close undermount system for frameless cabinets, sized for 380mm drawer boxes with sides from 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch thick. This bulk single ships handed — pair it with the matching right-hand runner to complete a working set.

Key Features

• Full extension brings the entire drawer box out to the cabinet face, putting the back of the drawer within reach.
• Integrated soft-close catches the drawer near the end of travel and settles it shut silently with no slamming.
• 88 lb capacity per pair covers loaded kitchen, bath, and utility drawers without strain.
• Ball-bearing carriage runs on steel ball bearings for a smooth, precise pull under load.
• Left-hand orientation — sold as a single runner; one left-hand and one right-hand runner make a complete pair.
• Zinc-finished steel construction provides lasting indoor corrosion resistance in a concealed application.

Where This Slide Fits the Work

The Actro 5D targets frameless European-style cabinetry where the runner mounts directly to the flat cabinet side. The 380mm nominal length suits drawer boxes built to that depth — common in base cabinets and bathroom vanities where a 15-inch interior depth is the standard. Full extension means every item stored at the back of the box stays reachable without tilting the drawer or hunting by feel. The integrated soft-close makes this runner a quiet, dependable choice for residential kitchens where drawer noise matters as much as drawer performance.

Construction and Finish

Steel members with a zinc finish handle years of indoor service without surface deterioration. Because the slide mounts beneath the drawer box and stays hidden when the drawer is open, the zinc finish works as a functional corrosion barrier rather than a decorative element. The ball-bearing carriage keeps travel smooth and consistent — ball bearings maintain their feel under load better than nylon rollers and hold up through high-cycle residential use.

Who Orders This Runner

Production cabinet shops running frameless lines reach for the Actro 5D when they want a ball-bearing undermount with integrated soft-close at the 380mm length. The bulk single format suits shops that stock left-hand and right-hand runners separately and pull from inventory per job. Residential remodelers and custom shops building to European frameless standards will find the Actro 5D's combination of full extension and damped close well matched to premium kitchen and bath work. This runner is for drawer sides from 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch — if your boxes run to 3/4 inch sides, check the series for the appropriate thickness version before ordering.
