This Fulterer 60 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide is engineered for drawers that carry genuine industrial weight, rated at 550 lb per pair and built from steel with a zinc finish for lasting indoor service. At five feet of closed length, this slide is the right choice when the drawer depth matches the job: deep tool drawers, long assembly trays, server and equipment pull-outs, and heavy storage platforms where standard cabinet-class slides simply cannot meet the load.
At 550 lb per pair and 60 inches of closed length, this slide is not a cabinet upgrade — it is a structural component for deep, heavily loaded enclosures. Think of a shop's rolling toolbox insert with a full complement of heavy tooling, a server rack pull-out that carries blade servers end-to-end, or a workbench drawer that holds a loaded vise setup and anchors a power strip. Whenever the depth of the enclosure exceeds what standard 22 or 24 inch slides can reach and the contents push well past the 100 lb kitchen-drawer class, this is the slide to spec. The standard-motion design means no closing mechanism works against the load — the drawer stays exactly where it is left, open or closed, until intentionally moved.
The slide members are cold-formed steel, which provides the structural integrity a 550 lb load demands across the full 60 inch travel. The zinc electroplating protects the steel through years of heavy indoor use — corrosion resistance without the added cost of stainless steel, appropriate for shop floors, equipment rooms, and climate-controlled industrial environments. Zinc is a functional finish: it is mostly hidden once the drawer is closed and is not chosen for appearance. For wet, washdown, or outdoor environments, stainless steel slides are the appropriate specification; this slide is for dry indoor work.
This slide is sized for professionals specifying custom equipment enclosures, millwork shops building commercial workstations, and industrial fabricators fitting out service carts or machine drawers. The non-handed design means field crews can install without sorting parts, which matters when the job involves many drawers. Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to provide 1/2 inch of side clearance for each slide. In face-frame construction, rear mounting brackets are required to support the back of a 60 inch slide — brackets are series-specific and sold separately. Confirm your cabinet's interior depth accommodates the full 60 inch slide length before ordering.
The 550 lb rating is per pair, meaning both slides together carry that load. Do not double it by counting each slide separately.
No. Standard motion means there is no soft-close, self-close, or detent — the slide is free-running and the drawer stays wherever it is left. On a 550 lb load, a detent or spring mechanism would be working against significant weight anyway; the standard-motion design is appropriate for this duty class.
Full extension means the drawer member travels approximately the full 60 inch slide length, bringing the entire drawer out to the cabinet face. Slide length and travel are two separate facts — this slide is 60 inches closed and travels its full length when open, so the rearmost contents of the drawer are reachable.
Yes, but you will need rear mounting brackets to support the back end of the slide. At 60 inches, unsupported rear ends are not practical — rear brackets are required and are sold separately. Make sure the brackets are compatible with this Fulterer series before ordering.
No. The slide is non-handed, so both slides in a pair are identical and either one fits either side of the drawer.
A 60 inch, 550 lb full-extension ball bearing slide is a purpose-built component for deep, heavy-duty enclosures. Specify it when both the depth and the load exceed what standard cabinet slides are designed to handle, and the zinc finish will keep it working through years of indoor service.
