5321 Slide Family: Everything You Need To Know
Accuride’s 5321 slide family is a highly versatile and wide-ranging collection of telescopic slides, suitable for many applications and industries. Whether you’re looking for a soft-close drawer slide, heavy-duty brackets, or a lock-in slide, you will find them all and more in the 5321 family.
The DZ5321 slide is a heavy-duty telescopic drawer slide. It has a load rating of 140-160kg and can withstand a temperature range of -20°C to +70°C, making it ideal for extreme applications in industries including white goods and industrial. While it is not suitable for flat mounting, full extension ensures a full range of movement and easy access to a drawer’s full contents.
The standard DZ5321 slide is electro-zinc plated and has undergone a 12-hour salt spray test to ensure its durability. The DA5321 is a corrosion-resistant aluminium slide with a load rating of 50kg and we also offer the DS5321, a stainless-steel option which has a up to 160kg load rating,
Thanks to the innovative engineering work here at Accuride, this slide family also includes the 5321EC, DZ5321-SC and DZ5321-60. The DZ5321-EC is an easy close slide, perfect for use in rigorous and heavy-duty applications due to the increased durability of the smooth closing mechanism. The DZ5321-SC is a self-close slide featuring a spring attachment designed to close a drawer without bounce back. Both slides have a 100kg load rating.
The DZ5321-60 provides even more versatility, offering the same high-quality features as the 5321 but with the benefit of a heavy-duty L-shaped metal bracket for bottom mounting.
All of our 5321 slides have a hold-in feature to ensure they stay safely closed when not in use, making them perfect for use in vehicles, and except for DZ5321-60, they all have a thickness of 19.1mm.
The DZ3607-2 and DZ3657-2 slides are the final two members of the Accuride 5321 slide family. Both the DZ3607-2 and DZ3657-2 are heavy-duty telescopic slides, with load ratings of 120kg and 124kg respectively. They both feature a front disconnect that allows drawers to be easily removed and replaced when in use as well as during installation. The DZ3607-2 also features a lock out mechanism, meaning the slide can be locked in place when open to increase safety, while the DZ3657-2is suitable for drawers up to 1000mm wide.
From futuristic TV storage to archive drawers, medical prescription storage drawers to hatches in trailers, Accuride’s versatile and heavy-duty DZ5321 slides can be trusted to provide the highest standard of safety and reliability in all manner of applications.
