Sugatsune ESR-8 Series 24" 3/4 Extension Ball Bearing Drawer Slides, Unhanded Side Mount Stainless Steel, - ESR-8-24
Description
Sugatsune ESR-8-24 Drawer Slides For Smooth Action
Sugatsune ESR-8-24 drawer slides provide 3/4 extension ball bearing movement, so drawers open far enough for access while keeping the slide protected in the cabinet. This 24 inch side mount slide is designed for drawer installations needing controlled travel and consistent feel. The ESR-8 Series uses an unhanded configuration, so the same slide works on either side of the drawer, simplifying layout and stocking for multi-drawer runs. Construction in 304 stainless steel supports use in environments where stainless components are preferred. A front disconnect feature lets the drawer member separate from the cabinet member at the front, which supports removal of the drawer for service, adjustment, or cabinet work without disturbing the cabinet-side hardware.
Key ESR-8 Series Details That Support The Job
- The ESR-8 Series 24 inch slide uses ball bearing construction, which creates a smoother travel path that helps drawers feel consistent from fully closed through 3/4 extension during everyday use.
- 3/4 extension travel on this ESR-8-24 model limits the open length, which can help control drawer projection in tighter spaces while still exposing interior storage for practical access.
- The unhanded side mount design lets the same ESR-8-24 slide install on left or right, which reduces part variation and streamlines setup when building or servicing banks of drawers.
- 304 stainless steel material on this slide provides a stainless-based solution where that alloy is desired for the drawer hardware, aligning the slide with stainless-focused projects.
- The front disconnect capability allows the drawer member of the ESR-8-24 to separate at the front, which supports pulling drawers out for cabinet work, adjustments, or cleaning without removing the cabinet-side members.
- Sugatsune America branding and the ESR-8-24 part number give a clear hardware reference, which helps align this slide with specifications and future service or replacement work.
Mounting And Fastener Details For ESR-8-24
This Sugatsune ESR-8 Series slide is configured for side mount applications, so it locates along the drawer and cabinet sides rather than under the drawer box. The ESR-8-24 is made to mount with M4 or #8 binding, pan, or truss head screws, so installers can select from these screw types within those sizes to match their fastening preferences and cabinet material. Using these specified head styles helps the screw heads seat properly into the slide mounting areas, which supports consistent alignment along the slide length.
Putting The ESR-8-24 Slide To Work In Projects
Where This 24 Inch Slide Fits Best
The ESR-8-24 belongs to the ESR-8 Series of side mount drawer slides from Sugatsune America, placing it in a product class suited to drawers that match its 24 inch slide length. In cabinet layouts where 3/4 extension is acceptable, this slide provides a way to keep drawers controlled while still gaining visibility into stored items. Because it is unhanded, a pair of ESR-8-24 slides can serve a single drawer without tracking left- or right-specific parts. The 304 stainless steel construction aligns with projects that call for stainless drawer hardware, keeping the slide material consistent with other stainless components in the build.
Details That Support Repeatable Drawer Installations
The 3/4 extension design on the ESR-8-24 establishes a predictable stop point for every drawer using this slide, which helps cabinet runs line up in the open position and reduces variation from one opening to the next. Ball bearing action in the ESR-8 Series supports smoother, more controlled motion, which can help drawers feel uniform even when built by different installers using the same slide. Side mount configuration keeps the hardware accessible along the case sides for layout and fastening, which can simplify marking and alignment during production or retrofit work. The specified M4 or #8 binding, pan, or truss head screw options give a defined fastener range, helping installers select screws that seat properly without interfering with slide travel. The front disconnect feature allows drawers on ESR-8-24 slides to be removed at the front, which can streamline finishing, service, or interior cabinet adjustments because the cabinet-side members remain fixed in place.
