Concealed Undermount Slide For Frameless Cabinetry With Precision Ball Bearing Travel

The Hettich Quadro V6 is a right-hand undermount drawer slide in the 400mm nominal length — a concealed, full-extension runner with integrated soft-close, rated 90 lb per pair, designed for frameless cabinets with drawer boxes built from 1/2 to 5/8 inch material.

Key Features

• Ball bearing carriage delivers precise, smooth travel under load across the full length of travel.
• Full extension brings the entire drawer box out to the cabinet face for complete access to rear contents.
• Integrated soft-close catches the drawer in the last inch of travel and settles it shut silently without slamming.
• 90 lb weight capacity per pair handles loaded kitchen, bath, and utility drawers comfortably.
• Right-hand orientation — sold as a single slide, paired with the matching left-hand member to form one complete working set.
• Zinc finish over steel provides durable corrosion resistance for long indoor service life.

Putting the Quadro V6 to Work in the Cabinet

The Quadro V6 mounts in frameless cabinets, where the slide fastens directly to the flat cabinet side panel without a face frame in the way. Because the slide sits concealed beneath the drawer box, it disappears completely when the drawer is open — only the drawer box and front are visible. The ball bearing system runs on full-length raceways, so the drawer pulls evenly and precisely whether it is empty or loaded to the 90 lb pair rating.

This slide is the right-hand member of the pair. To run one drawer, you need this slide mounted on the right side of the cabinet interior and the matching left-hand 400mm Quadro V6 mounted on the left. The drawer box attaches at the front through Quadro V6 front locking devices, which are series-specific and sold separately. Build the box to Hettich's published specification for the Quadro V6: nominal 400mm length, the correct box width for the side clearance, bottom recess, rear notch, and locking-device drilling. A box built to the wrong spec will not seat correctly on the slides.

Steel Construction Built for Indoor Cabinetry

The Quadro V6 members are formed steel with a zinc finish — the standard corrosion-resistant surface treatment for ball-bearing slides in indoor cabinet applications. Because the slide runs beneath the drawer box, the finish serves a functional role rather than a decorative one. The ball bearing carriage is the defining difference between the Quadro V6 and roller-based undermounts: the precision bearing system maintains consistent, quiet travel over the life of the drawer, even as the box is loaded and cycled repeatedly. The minimum installation depth for this length is 16-3/4 inches, so the cabinet interior needs that clearance behind the drawer to seat the slide correctly.

Right-Hand Single for Production and Custom Shops

Selling as a bulk single — rather than a pre-packaged pair — makes the Quadro V6 a natural fit for cabinet shops that stock slides by hand orientation and pull from inventory per job. Production lines running frameless frameless boxes in the 400mm depth can keep lefts and rights in separate bins and build sets as drawers are assembled. This length suits a standard 400mm nominal drawer depth, a common dimension in European-style cabinetry and kitchen base units. Designers and contractors specifying premium frameless kitchens will find the Quadro V6 a reliable workhorse at this depth, providing the soft-close and full-extension performance their clients expect without the complexity of a synchronized or powered system.

The Right-Hand Member That Completes the Run

Match this right-hand Quadro V6 with its left-hand counterpart, build the box to spec, add the series locking devices, and every 400mm drawer in the run closes with the same quiet, controlled feel.
