Salice Progressa 24" Soft-Close Full Extension Undermount Drawer Slides, Zinc - G7U6S610CXB
Description
Salice Progressa 24 Inch Undermount Drawer Slides
Salice Progressa 24 inch undermount drawer slides provide a soft-close, full-extension slide that supports demanding drawer applications. These slides use a progressive action mechanism, so movement stays smooth through the full stroke, which helps drawers travel predictably under load. A 170 lbs static load capacity means the system holds heavy drawers at rest, useful for wide or deep storage. The 154 lbs dynamic load capacity supports frequent opening and closing, so drawers operate consistently in regular use. A synchronized mechanism keeps both sides of the slide moving together, which helps drawers track straight in the cabinet. The undermount design hides the slide beneath the drawer box, leaving the sides clear for clean cabinet interiors. Salice America engineering backs the design for projects where controlled motion and rated load performance are important.
Key Functional Details For Cabinet Projects
- The soft-close function slows the drawer at the end of travel, which helps prevent slamming and reduces impact on the cabinet and drawer joints over time.
- Full extension travel lets the drawer come completely out to the rated stroke, which improves access to items in the back of the drawer in daily use.
- The progressive action design keeps movement even along the slide length, which supports smooth opening when drawers are partially or fully loaded.
- A synchronized mechanism coordinates both slide members, which helps keep drawer fronts aligned and reduces racking during opening and closing.
- The zinc finish on these slides offers a stable functional surface, which supports consistent sliding action in typical indoor cabinet environments.
- Compatibility with 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch and 3/4 inch drawer sides allows these slides to work across common drawer box thicknesses, which simplifies planning across a project.
Installation Use For 24 Inch Undermount Slides
These Salice Progressa 24 inch soft-close slides are designed as full-extension undermount slides, so they mount beneath the drawer rather than on the sides, freeing the drawer sides for clean construction. Compatibility with drawer sides from 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch and 3/4 inch means typical plywood or solid wood drawer boxes can be matched to the slide geometry. The integrated push opening system allows drawers to open with a push on the front, which is useful where handle-free fronts are desired. Meeting and exceeding ANSI BHMA A156.9-2020 Grade 1 standard means the slides are tested for performance under defined residential or commercial use conditions. Using the 24 inch length helps align slide choice with deeper base cabinets, so the drawer box can run close to cabinet depth while maintaining full extension function.
Using Progressa Plus Slides In Real Projects
Where These Undermount Slides Work Best
These Salice America undermount drawer slides belong to the Progressa Plus family, described as 24 inch full-extension slides with soft-close operation. The 170 lbs static load capacity suits drawers that carry significant stored weight, such as cookware, tools, or dense pantry items, because the rated capacity reflects the drawer at rest in normal cabinet conditions. A 154 lbs dynamic load capacity supports drawers that are frequently opened and closed under heavier loads, so the motion system can handle use in active kitchen, shop, or office storage. The integrated push opening system allows handle-free fronts, which fits modern cabinet layouts where a touch on the drawer front activates the opening. Compatibility with 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch and 3/4 inch drawer side thickness allows the same slide model to be used across multiple cabinet lines that share standard drawer materials.
Details That Support Consistent Drawer Performance
The progressive action described for these 24 inch undermount slides means the slide elements move in a controlled sequence, which produces smoother translation from closed to open positions, especially under partial load. The synchronized mechanism coordinates movement on each side of the drawer, which helps keep the box square in motion and supports clean reveals around the drawer front. Soft-close action engages near the end of travel to slow the drawer, which reduces closing shock into the face frame or frameless cabinet side, supporting longevity of joints and finishes. Meeting and exceeding ANSI BHMA A156.9-2020 Grade 1 standard confirms the slide is built and tested to a recognized performance benchmark for drawer hardware. The zinc finish presents a protective coating on the slide members, which supports stable sliding contact surfaces for long-term cabinet service.
Practical Questions About Salice Undermount Slides
What drawer length matches these 24 inch slides?
The Salice Progressa 24 inch undermount drawer slides are designed around a 24 inch full-extension stroke, which suits deeper base cabinets where the drawer length can closely match cabinet depth.
How much weight can these Salice slides support?
These Salice America slides are rated at 170 lbs static load capacity and 154 lbs dynamic load capacity, so they support heavy drawers at rest and in regular opening and closing cycles.
Which drawer side thicknesses are these slides designed for?
The Salice Progressa slides are compatible with 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch and 3/4 inch drawer sides, allowing use with common plywood or solid wood drawer box constructions.
What motion features do these undermount slides provide?
These undermount slides provide full extension, soft-close operation, progressive action, and a synchronized mechanism, which together support smooth travel, controlled closing, and stable drawer tracking.
What does the integrated push opening system do?
The integrated push opening system lets the drawer open when the front is pressed, which supports handle-free cabinet designs and simplifies access where pulls are not desired.
How does the ANSI BHMA Grade 1 rating help in selection?
Meeting and exceeding ANSI BHMA A156.9-2020 Grade 1 standard means the slides follow a recognized performance benchmark, which supports choosing them for demanding drawer applications.
Selecting These Progressa Slides For Your Project
Salice Progressa 24 inch undermount drawer slides combine soft-close action, an integrated push opening system, and full extension with synchronized movement, which supports smooth, controlled motion in deeper drawers. The 170 lbs static and 154 lbs dynamic load capacities align with heavier storage needs, while compatibility with 1/2 inch to 5/8 inch and 3/4 inch drawer sides suits common cabinet construction. When a project calls for undermount slides that meet and exceed ANSI BHMA A156.9-2020 Grade 1 standard, these Salice America slides give a clearly rated option for engineered drawer performance.
