The Fulterer 5005 is a 16 inch over-travel side-mount ball bearing drawer slide rated 225 lb per pair, finished in zinc, and built for drawers that carry real weight under real conditions. Its over-travel action pushes the drawer past the cabinet face, and a hold-in detent keeps it shut until you pull it open.
Over-travel is the right choice when the drawer opening sits behind something — a countertop overhang, a thick face frame, or a furniture apron — that would block access before the drawer reaches full open. The 5005 pushes the drawer past that obstruction, putting the back of the box in reach without the awkward reach-around. Pair that with a 225 lb rating and the hold-in detent, and this slide covers heavy shop drawers, loaded tool storage, utility cabinets, and any application where a standard-class slide would be undersized or the drawer must stay put once closed. The hold-in detent does not pull the drawer shut and it does not slow the close — it simply catches and holds, which is exactly what a heavy working drawer needs.
The slide is cold-formed steel throughout, with hardened ball bearings running in formed steel raceways. The zinc electroplate is a functional indoor finish — it resists the corrosion and humidity of a shop or garage environment without adding cost for a decorative look that would be hidden beside the drawer box anyway. Zinc is the segment's standard protective finish, and on a heavy-duty working slide it is the right call. The 3/4 inch side clearance requirement is wider than the 1/2 inch standard on lighter cabinet slides; build the drawer box to leave 3/4 inch of clearance on each side or the slide will bind.
Cabinet shops building utility runs, shop furniture, or server and equipment cabinets will reach for this slide when the load class and over-travel both matter. Contractors fitting out garages, mechanical rooms, or commercial millwork get the same benefit: a non-handed slide at 225 lb that drops into either side of the opening without sorting. Homeowners tackling a serious workshop build or a heavily loaded kitchen island drawer will find this slide more than sufficient for the task. For face-frame cabinets, rear mounting support is required at the back of the slide — the matching rear brackets are sold separately and are series-specific to the Fulterer 5005 family.
Per pair. Both slides together carry 225 lb — do not double that number by counting each slide separately.
No. The hold-in detent is a mechanical catch that holds the drawer closed and stops it from bouncing back open. There is no damper and no spring — the drawer does not slow down as it closes. If damped closing is the goal, this is not the right slide for that job.
The 5005 is a heavier-profile slide built for a higher load class, and its construction requires 3/4 inch of side clearance per side. Build the drawer box 1-1/2 inches narrower than the cabinet opening to fit correctly. Forcing a 1/2 inch clearance box onto this slide will cause binding and premature wear.
No. The 5005 is non-handed — both slides in the pair are identical and either one fits either side of the drawer.
Yes, but face-frame construction requires rear mounting support at the back of each slide. Use the matching Fulterer rear mounting brackets, sold separately, to support the slide's back end inside the frame opening. Rear brackets from other brands or series are not a substitute.
The Fulterer 5005 puts 225 lb of capacity, over-travel reach, and a hold-in detent into a zinc-finished non-handed slide that installs the same way on both sides of the drawer — less time sorting hardware, more time building.
