The Fulterer 5510 is a 28 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide rated at 550 lb per pair, built for drawers that carry genuine industrial, shop, or commercial loads. This is not a cabinet-class slide — at 550 lb, it belongs in tool chests, heavy workbenches, server enclosures, and institutional furniture where drawer contents put standard hardware out of its depth.
Full extension at this load class covers applications a standard 100 lb cabinet slide cannot touch. A mechanic's tool chest drawer loaded with sockets and wrenches, a commercial kitchen pull-out holding heavy cookware, a shop bench drawer carrying jigs and clamps, or an industrial rack holding dense electronic equipment — these are the drawers the 5510 is sized for. Full extension means the entire drawer comes out to the cabinet face, so nothing at the back of the box stays hidden when the drawer is open.
The 5510 is formed from steel with a zinc electroplate finish — the standard corrosion-resistant surface for side-mount ball bearing slides in working environments. Zinc protects against the moisture and airborne grime that accumulate in garages, shops, and commercial kitchens without adding the cost of stainless. This is a functional finish on hardware that sits beside an open drawer and does its job out of sight.
The 5510 suits frameless and face-frame cabinet construction. In face-frame work, rear support at the back of the slide is required — add the appropriate rear mounting brackets for the installation. The non-handed design simplifies ordering for large projects: one part number covers both sides of every drawer. Standard motion means no spring, detent, or damper competes with the contents, which is the right choice for utility drawers that need to stay put when open. If your application needs a hold-in detent or soft-close at this load class, confirm those options are available in the Fulterer heavy-duty line before ordering.
Standard kitchen and office slides typically rate 75–100 lb per pair. At 550 lb, the 5510 is in a different duty class — appropriate for tool storage, industrial racks, and commercial equipment where drawer contents can weigh hundreds of pounds.
The 28 inch measurement is the closed slide length. Because the slide is full extension, the drawer member travels approximately the full slide length — bringing the entire drawer out to the cabinet face. Slide length and travel are two separate specs; full extension means travel approaches the nominal slide length.
No. The 5510 is non-handed, so both slides in the pair are identical. Order the quantity you need without specifying handedness.
Standard motion means there is no soft-close damper, self-close spring, or hold-in detent. The drawer rests on ball bearings and stays wherever it is positioned — open, closed, or anywhere in between — until moved intentionally.
Side-mount slides in face-frame construction need support at the rear of the slide because the cabinet side is set back from the face frame. Add compatible rear mounting brackets for the installation — they are sold separately and must match the slide series.
When the drawer carries real weight, the slide has to match it. The Fulterer 5510 brings full extension and a 550 lb rating to a zinc-finished, non-handed package that installs on either side of any drawer — the kind of straightforward, serious hardware that keeps a heavy-duty build moving without second-guessing the spec.
