Frequently Asked Questions of Ball Bearing Slide
A: Ball bearing slides use steel ball bearings to provide smooth, quiet, and stable movement, making them ideal for heavy-duty and precision applications. Roller slides use plastic or metal rollers and are more suitable for lightweight, low-cost furniture due to their lower load capacity and rougher motion.
A: Measure the depth of your drawer box and match it with the slide length. Common lengths include 10", 12", 14", 16", 18", 20", and 22". The slide should not be longer than the cabinet depth to ensure proper fit.
A: The most common type is side mount, which attaches to the sides of the drawer and cabinet. Other types include under-mount (hidden beneath the drawer) and center-mount (single slide beneath the drawer). Tai Cheer specializes in side mount drawer slides for strength and easy installation.
A: Soft-close slides use a damper mechanism that gently closes the drawer without slamming.
Self-close slides have a spring mechanism that pulls the drawer closed after a certain point, but without the soft damping feature.
A: Full extension slides allow the drawer to fully extend for maximum access—ideal for toolboxes or kitchen drawers.
Partial extension slides open about 75%, suitable for applications where full access isn’t necessary.
A: Yes. Our heavy-duty ball bearing slides can support up to 500 lbs and are ideal for tool cabinets, industrial furniture, and commercial drawers.
A: Absolutely. Tai Cheer provides OEM services. We can manufacture slide length, load rating, soft-close/lock-in functions, and more according to your project needs.
