Hettich Quadro V6 480mm Soft-Close Full Extension Undermount Drawer Slides, Ball Bearing Left hand Zinc - 9245365

Hettich Quadro V6 480mm Drawer Slides For Smooth Use

Hettich Quadro V6 480mm drawer slides provide full extension undermount guidance, so drawers travel the complete length of the 480mm slide and give clear access to stored contents on standard installations. The soft-close Silent System is integrated into the slide, so the drawer slows and closes gently, which reduces slamming and helps protect cabinet construction over repeated use. These slides use ball bearing technology, so the movement of the drawer remains controlled under load and feels consistent throughout the stroke. The slide is specified as a left hand zinc model, so it fits the left side of an undermount drawer pair and matches typical installation layouts. As part of the Quadro V6 product class, this slide suits woodworking applications where concealed undermount hardware and controlled closing are required.

Key Quadro V6 Slide Details For Installers

• The full extension undermount design lets the drawer open to the full 480mm slide length, which helps during layout when planning cabinet depth and usable interior space.
• The integrated Silent System soft-close function controls the last part of the closing motion, which helps reduce impact on drawer fronts and face frames during everyday operation.
• The load capacity is rated up to 30 kg for standard applications, so drawers can be designed to handle typical residential or light commercial storage loads within this range.
• A version is available for particularly light drawers up to 10 kg, which helps match slide performance to lighter drawer constructions when weight reduction is a design priority.
• The slide is made from galvanised steel, which provides a robust metal running profile for the ball bearings and helps maintain alignment in normal cabinet environments.
• The left hand designation allows this slide to be used on the left side of a drawer system, supporting accurate pairing with corresponding right hand components in a project.

Installation, 4D Adjustment, And Drawer Alignment

This Quadro V6 4D slide uses convenient slide-on installation with 4D catches, so the drawer can be connected to the undermount slides by engaging the catches rather than using a separate mounting method. Tool-less, intuitive adjustment of the drawer front panel is supported, so installers can fine-tune the front after mounting. Height adjustment up to plus 2 mm allows vertical tuning of the drawer front relative to adjacent fronts. Side adjustment up to plus or minus 1.5 mm is available when the drawer side profile thickness is up to 15 mm, helping to establish even reveals. Depth adjustment up to plus or minus 2 mm helps align the front plane with neighboring fronts. Tilt adjustment is available through the tilt adjuster, which helps correct front angle for tight gaps. The 4D catch and tilt adjuster must be ordered separately, so planning for these components during project specification is important.

Using The Hettich Quadro V6 Slide In Projects

Where This 480mm Undermount Slide Fits Best

This Hettich Quadro V6 480mm soft-close full extension undermount drawer slide is part of the Slides, Undermount category, so it suits drawer designs where the running system is concealed beneath the drawer box. The product sits in the Undermount Drawer Slides class, so it aligns with cabinet workflows that rely on hidden hardware and clean interior drawer sides. The slide is designed with a load capacity to EN 15338, Level 3, which relates to performance requirements for furniture hardware and helps when specifying slides for standard duty drawers. A version for particularly light drawers up to 10 kg is available, so projects with small or shallow drawers can match hardware load class to expected contents. The left hand configuration with 480mm length works in cabinet carcases that support this nominal depth, so planning carcass dimensions around this slide length helps achieve full-extension movement in service.

Why 4D Adjustment And Silent System Matter

The integrated Silent System in this Quadro V6 slide provides silent and soft closing, so drawers run quietly into the cabinet and reduce noise in kitchens, offices, or workshop environments. The system can optionally be retrofitted with Push to open Silent, providing a convenient opening mechanism in combination with the silent and soft closing function for applications that call for handle-free fronts. Tool-less, intuitive adjustment of the drawer front panel in four directions helps speed up installation because fine tuning does not rely on separate tools for each axis. Height adjustment up to plus 2 mm allows quick correction of minor drilling tolerances, so front lines can be brought into level across a run of cabinets. Side adjustment up to plus or minus 1.5 mm, within the maximum drawer side profile thickness of 15 mm, lets installers shift fronts sideways until gaps appear even. Depth adjustment up to plus or minus 2 mm helps bring fronts flush across an elevation, preventing stepped faces. Tilt adjustment through the tilt adjuster helps correct any top-to-bottom misalignment of the front, which supports tight, parallel reveals between stacked drawers. The slide is made from galvanised steel, so the running components sit on a stable metal base that supports the ball bearings and helps maintain smooth guidance over long-term use.
