Fulterer 28" Full Extension Hold-In/Hold-Out Ball Bearing Drawer Slides, Unhanded Side Mount Zinc - 5370

Zinc-Finished Industrial Slides Built for the Heaviest Working Drawers

The Fulterer 5370 is a 28 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide rated 550 lb per pair, with a combined hold-in and hold-out detent system that keeps the drawer locked in the closed position and held open at full extension. It is built for demanding industrial, shop, and commercial drawer applications where standard-class hardware is simply not rated for the load.

Key Features

• 550 lb weight capacity per pair — engineered for seriously heavy drawers far beyond the standard 100 lb cabinet class.
• Full extension — the entire drawer clears the cabinet face, putting the full contents within reach.
• Hold-in detent — a mechanical catch keeps the drawer firmly closed and prevents bounce-back when shut.
• Hold-out detent — the slide locks the drawer in the open position until intentionally pushed closed, keeping it out of the way while both hands are busy.
• Non-handed design — one slide fits either side of the drawer, simplifying ordering and bench sorting.
• Zinc finish on cold-formed steel — a durable, functional surface suited for indoor industrial and shop environments.

Where These Slides Earn Their Keep

A 550 lb per pair rating puts the Fulterer 5370 in a different duty class from the kitchen and office hardware that fills most hardware catalogs. These slides are the right call for toolbox-style service drawers loaded with hand tools, heavy-stock material drawers in a cabinet shop, industrial workstation drawers carrying measuring equipment or gauges, and any fixed cabinet where the drawer weight alone would stress a standard 100 lb or 150 lb slide. The 28 inch length suits medium-to-deep cabinet work, and the full-extension travel brings the back of the drawer all the way out to the cabinet face. At this load rating, the hold-in detent is not just convenient — it actively prevents a loaded drawer from drifting or rebounding open on its own, which matters when the cabinet is on a production floor.

Steel Construction and Zinc Finish

The slide members are cold-formed steel with a zinc electroplate finish. Zinc is the working standard for heavy-duty industrial slides in indoor environments: it resists the surface rust that comes with shop humidity and tool contact without adding the cost of a decorative or specialty coating. The finish blends into the cabinet interior and holds up alongside the steel it protects. These are indoor slides — for wet, washdown, or corrosive environments, a stainless or coated alternative is the right choice.

Who Should Order the Fulterer 5370

Cabinet shops building tool storage, workstations, and heavy-capacity drawer units will find the 5370 a precise fit: the 28 inch length handles most shop-depth drawers, the non-handed design means one SKU covers both sides, and the 3/4 inch side clearance requirement is easy to account for when building the box. Contractors specifying commercial millwork with heavy-load drawers and fabricators building industrial consoles and benches also rely on slides in this duty class. This is not a residential kitchen slide — if the load fits within the standard 100 lb class, a lighter slide is the better-value choice.

A Heavy-Duty Slide That Stays Where You Put It

The Fulterer 5370 delivers full-extension travel, a 550 lb per pair capacity, and a dual-detent system that keeps a loaded drawer closed when it should be closed and open when it needs to stay open — the combination that makes it the right slide for serious working drawers.
