Zinc Left-Hand Undermount Slide For Frameless Cabinet Installations

The Hettich Quadro V6 is a full-extension, soft-close undermount drawer slide engineered for frameless cabinet construction. This listing is the left-hand cabinet member of the pair, sold individually, in a zinc finish and sized for 520mm nominal drawer length. A zinc finish, ball-bearing construction, and 90 lb per pair load rating make it a dependable choice across residential and light commercial cabinetry.

Key Features

• Full extension brings the entire drawer out to the cabinet face, giving complete access to the drawer interior.
• Integrated soft-close catches the drawer near the end of travel and settles it shut silently without slamming.
• 90 lb load rating per pair handles heavily loaded kitchen, bath, and utility drawers through everyday cycling.
• Ball-bearing construction delivers smooth, consistent travel under load across the full 520mm drawer length.
• Left-hand orientation — this is a single cabinet member; pair it with the matching right-hand member to complete one drawer installation.
• Fits 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch drawer sides, covering the most common drawer box thicknesses in frameless cabinet work.

Where This Slide Fits the Job

A 520mm nominal length suits drawer boxes built for approximately 20 to 21 inch cabinet depths — a common run in base cabinet and kitchen drawer configurations. Full extension means the drawer clears the cabinet opening completely at full open, so the back of a pot drawer or a deep utensil box is reachable without reaching blind. The soft-close mechanism makes it appropriate anywhere a quiet, controlled close matters: kitchens, master bath vanities, and built-ins where drawer noise is a design consideration. Because this slide is specified for frameless construction, it mounts directly to the flat interior side panel, with no rear mounting bracket required.

Construction and Finish

The Quadro V6 runs on steel ball bearings in formed steel raceways, giving it the smooth feel and load consistency that separates a ball-bearing undermount from an economy roller slide. The zinc finish provides corrosion resistance suited to indoor environments and complements the bare steel and melamine interiors typical of frameless production cabinetry. Steel construction through the full slide keeps the 90 lb per pair rating honest across the service life of the cabinet. This is an indoor slide; it is not rated for wet or exterior applications.

Who Orders This Slide and Why

Cabinet shops running frameless production lines reach for the Quadro V6 when the project calls for a reliable soft-close undermount at a 520mm drawer length without the added cost of a premium adjustment system. Designers specifying residential kitchens get the clean, hardware-free drawer look an undermount provides, with a load rating that covers everyday use. Contractors sourcing for installs value the consistent soft-close behavior and the ball-bearing smoothness that reads as quality to the homeowner. The minimum installation depth of 21-15/32 inches means the cabinet interior needs to be measured before committing to this slide length — the box and the cabinet both need to fit the slide.

The Right Member for the Left Side of the Drawer

If your project calls for a full-extension, soft-close undermount in a frameless cabinet at the 520mm drawer length, this left-hand Quadro V6 is the cabinet-side piece that starts the installation — order the matching right-hand member alongside it and the drawer is ready to hang.
