Hettich Quadro YOU 500mm Soft-Close Full Extension Undermount Drawer Slides, Ball Bearing Left hand Zinc - 9256872

Hettich Quadro YOU 500mm Drawer Slide Performance

Hettich Quadro YOU 500mm drawer slide is a full extension undermount runner designed for AvanTech YOU system drawers and wooden drawers with catches, so drawers travel the full 500mm depth while staying concealed under the box. The integrated Silent System provides soft-close action, which slows the closing movement and helps drawers settle quietly at the end of travel. Load classes XS at 10 kg and M at 30 kg are rated to EN 15338, Level 3, which defines tested performance levels so you can select this runner within those loading ranges. The runner is made from galvanised steel, which resists corrosion in normal cabinet environments and supports the moving components of the ball bearing mechanism. This Quadro YOU slide is specified as left hand, so it installs on the left side of the drawer opening as part of a handed pair.

Key Quadro YOU 500mm Slide Details For Projects

• The full extension undermount runner design lets the drawer open to its full 500mm length, helping with access to the back of the drawer space during everyday use and fitting.
• Integration with the Silent System creates a soft-close function, which slows the last part of travel so fronts do not slam against the cabinet when pushed closed.
• Compatibility with AvanTech YOU system drawers and wooden drawers with catches connects this runner to common drawer box styles, supporting consistent hardware choices across a project.
• Load classes XS at 10 kg and M at 30 kg to EN 15338, Level 3 align performance with defined weight categories, which guides selection when matching runners to drawer contents.
• The galvanised steel construction provides a corrosion-resistant surface for the runner and ball bearing track, supporting long-term movement in typical indoor cabinet conditions.
• The left hand designation identifies this runner for the left side of the opening, which matters when pairing it with the matching right hand runner in a drawer set.

Undermount Runner Fit, Length, And Silent Action

This Quadro YOU undermount drawer slide is specified at 500mm length, so it suits drawer boxes and cabinet depths designed around that nominal length. The full extension function lets the drawer move its entire guided length, helping installers align fronts and reveals with the slide fully extended. Because the runner mounts underneath, it leaves the drawer sides clear, which supports cleaner drawer side lines and space for AvanTech YOU system drawer profiles. The integrated Silent System soft-close action is built into the runner, so the damping and closing support are handled inside the slide travel path, reducing impact at closure.

Using The Quadro YOU Runner In Drawer Builds

Applications With AvanTech YOU And Wooden Drawers

The product description specifies this runner for combining with AvanTech YOU system drawers, which positions it directly within Hettichs system drawer program for consistent function and appearance. The same description notes it can be used with wooden drawers when a suitable catch is used, so it can support traditional drawer boxes that connect to the runner by those catches. By acting as a full extension undermount runner for both system and wooden drawers, it lets shops standardize on one slide family while building different drawer constructions. The left hand configuration defines its role on the left side of the cabinet, pairing with a corresponding right hand runner so drawers track squarely between slides.

Details That Support Soft Close And Load Classes

The integrated Silent System noted for this Quadro YOU runner provides the soft-close function, which means the damping and pull-in are handled inside the slide housing rather than by add-on components. This built-in system manages the last part of the closing motion, drawing the drawer in and cushioning contact, which helps maintain consistent closing behavior across multiple drawers. Load classes XS at 10 kg and M at 30 kg to EN 15338, Level 3 are specified for this runner, which ties its use to standardized test criteria so the slide operates within those rated weight ranges. The ball bearing construction described for the slide supports smooth guided travel under these classes, while the galvanised steel material forms the structural body that carries both the bearings and the Silent System components over repeated use.
