Sugatsune SLD series vertical swing down mechanism is a lift assist mechanism designed to control the swing-down motion of a panel or work surface. The SLD-3 model is rated for 6.6-8.8lbs, so it is suited to relatively light lids or small work surfaces where controlled movement matters. As part of Sugatsune Americas SLD vertical swing down mech, 6.6-8.8lb range, it serves as a lid support and stay, helping the panel move in a predictable vertical swing path. This mechanism sits in the lift systems, lid supports and stays, and lift assist mechanisms category, so it fits projects where a surface needs guided movement rather than free fall. For installers and shop builders, that means a known load range and defined motion style when planning cabinetry or custom furniture.
The SLD-3 vertical swing down mechanism is identified specifically for a 6.6-8.8lb range, so it is aimed at applications where the lid or work surface falls within that load. By working as a lift assist mechanism in the lid supports and stays class, it is intended to manage the vertical swing down motion rather than just act as a static bracket. This matters when positioning the mechanism in a cabinet or work station, because the geometry and panel weight work together with the SLD-3 rating. Using a component from the Sugatsune SLD series also helps maintain consistent motion characteristics when the same style of swing down action is used across several units in a project.
The SLD-3 is described as an SLD vertical swing down mech, 6.6-8.8lb, placing it squarely in projects with smaller lids, panels, or work surfaces in that weight band. Because it is a lid support and stay, it works where a lid or surface needs guided vertical swing rather than unrestricted motion, such as compact work areas or cabinetry with a controlled drop section. Its placement in the lift systems and lift assist mechanisms category means it is intended for moving components, not fixed shelves, giving designers and installers a defined role for the mechanism in motion-focused assemblies. For woodworking or shop-fitting jobs, that classification signals that the SLD-3 is used where an articulated surface is part of the design, so planning clearances and motion paths around a vertical swing action becomes the central layout task.
The defined 6.6-8.8lbs range on the SLD-3 gives installers a specific load window, which supports repeatable performance because each panel can be designed or selected to fall within that rating. As part of the Sugatsune SLD series vertical swing down mechanism line, it delivers a consistent motion style across multiple units in one installation, which helps when several lids or work surfaces need to move in the same way. Its classification as a lift assist mechanism and lid support and stay also clarifies that this component is responsible for guided vertical swing, so it can be integrated with other hardware while keeping the panel movement predictable. That clarity on role and rating reduces trial-and-error in layout and helps standardize how moving surfaces perform from cabinet to cabinet or station to station.
The SLD-3 is a Sugatsune SLD series vertical swing down mechanism classified under lid supports and stays, so it is used to guide and support a moving lid or panel.
The SLD-3 vertical swing down mechanism is specified for 6.6-8.8lbs, aligning it with lighter lids or work surfaces that fall within that weight range.
The SLD-3 is a vertical swing down mechanism, so it guides the connected lid or work surface through a controlled vertical swing path instead of allowing free fall.
The SLD-3 is listed under work surface and tables, lift systems, and lift assist mechanisms, indicating it is intended for moving work surfaces and lids.
This mechanism is from Sugatsune America with manufacturer part number SLD-3, helping buyers match it precisely in specifications and reorders.
The SLD-3 works as a lift assist mechanism by supporting and guiding a 6.6-8.8lb lid or work surface through a controlled vertical swing down motion.
The SLD-3 vertical swing down mechanism from Sugatsune America offers a clearly defined role as a lid support and stay for 6.6-8.8lb panels. For work surface and table projects using lift systems or lift assist mechanisms, that specific rating and motion style help align the hardware choice with the design intent. When a project calls for a controlled vertical swing action on a lighter lid or work surface, this SLD series vertical swing down mechanism provides an identified option that fits within the lid supports and stays product class.
