Fulterer 24" Full Extension Hold-In/Hold-Out Ball Bearing Drawer Slides, Unhanded Side Mount Zinc - 5368

Fulterer 24 Inch Drawer Slides For Controlled Travel

Fulterer 24 inch drawer slides provide full extension travel, so a 24 inch drawer can pull completely out of the cabinet opening, giving direct access to contents across the entire slide length. The hold-in and hold-out ball bearing design uses a lock-in and lock-out mechanism, so the slide positively retains the drawer in the closed or fully open position, helping drawers stay put under load or vibration. This product is a side mount drawer slide, so it works in applications where slides mount to the cabinet sides rather than under the drawer. The slides are non-detachable, so the drawer member stays engaged with the cabinet member during normal use, helping maintain alignment between members in demanding woodworking or industrial environments.

Key Lock-In, Lock-Out Slide Details That Matter

• The lock-in and lock-out mechanism secures the slide at closed and fully extended positions, which helps keep drawers from drifting during use in woodworking or shop environments.
• The hold-in and hold-out ball bearing design supports controlled motion, so drawers can be positioned at the end of travel without relying on external catches.
• This side mount drawer slide layout mounts to cabinet sides, giving installers a familiar interface for casework, shop cabinets, or storage pullouts built around side members.
• The non-detachable slide construction keeps the drawer and cabinet members engaged, which supports consistent tracking when drawers operate repeatedly on the same path.
• Flat-mount installation is applicable with reduced load capacity, allowing these slides to be used in horizontal layouts where loads are managed for the lower rating.

Installation Behavior And Slide Function In Use

This side mount, full extension ball bearing slide is built for applications where the slide fastens along the cabinet side, so the drawer box can be sized to clear the slide thickness. Because the slides are non-detachable, the drawer member remains connected to the cabinet member during installation and service, which keeps the running surfaces aligned as the drawer is cycled. The lock-in and lock-out mechanism works through a dedicated locking lever, so function depends on how that lever is operated during opening and closing. The product is applicable for flat-mount installation with reduced load capacity, so when these slides are mounted flat under a platform or shelf, the working load must reflect the reduced rating.

Using Fulterer Hold-In Hold-Out Slides On Projects

Where These Fulterer 24 Inch Slides Are Applied

Fulterer 24 inch full extension hold-in/hold-out ball bearing drawer slides are used where controlled open and closed positions matter over a 24 inch travel, such as storage pullouts or casework that need positive retention. As a side mount drawer slide in the Side Mount, Ball Bearing Slides class, it suits cabinets or enclosures where the structure presents solid side members for mounting. The hold-in and hold-out function is supplied by a lock-in and lock-out mechanism, so drawers can be held at the extremes of travel on these slides. This Fulterer USA, Inc. product operates as a non-detachable assembly, so drawer boxes remain carried by the same cabinet tracks across the full motion.

Locking, Non-Detachable Design For Repeatable Motion

The lock-in and lock-out mechanism on this Fulterer 5368 side mount slide uses a locking lever, and the function is not symmetrical, so lever operation affects how the slide locks in each direction. That detail matters where drawers must consistently hold at full extension, because the installer can orient the lever position for the desired behavior. The non-detachable construction keeps slide members together, which supports repeatable motion in woodworking shops or industrial cabinets that cycle drawers frequently along the same path. This model is applicable for flat-mount installation with reduced load capacity, so when laid horizontally under a tray or platform, the slide still provides the same guided travel pattern at a correspondingly lower working load. The reference to FR 5400SL, FR 5400SL-L, and FR 5400SL-R identifies related left and right locking variants, so buyers can relate this heavy duty locking slide description to Fulterer locking families when planning matched installations.
