Differences in Slide Out tracks?

Postby Classic Finn » Sat Mar 17, 2007 2:24 pm

I was lookinga the pullout tracks or slides for boxes and the cooler ..

I noticed some of the tracks on sale but ... Couldnt find any that mount to the floor? Like in this case our cooler that we have to mount side facing out becaus there isnt enough room to install it in the depth position..

Specifications Isotherm Travel Box 32
Type TB32
Volume (litres) 32
Dimensions
HxWxD (mm) 380x335x580
Weight (kg) 18
Power
Consumption (Amp)
Average/Max (12 V) 0.7/4.0
Danfoss Compressor Type BD35F
Freezer -10°C 32


So ... are there any differences in these set ups... or the ones that normally install to the sides of the drawers ... can they be mounted to the floor?

I was going to ask if anyone had used these folks

Their Prices are CRAZY! They do have undermount sliders, But I was looking at the Fineslide 150LB Over Ext. Side Mount. anyone use them before?

I want that cooler to come out enough so we can open the lid up all the way up.. So would they be the 14 inch or 16 inch?

Sonetpro has a real nice set up on his.... :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Heikki,
AccuRide makes a set that are reasonably priced and they're rated a 100lbs....
That's what I'm using for my ice chest and the Flamineta.
Right above those and under the counter, I'm gonna have a full width under the counter slide out D. O. table.
Will be using a different series of AccuRides for that... 500lb rating.
That should easily support a 22" Maca if I decide to go that big.
Might have to stake the the tounge of the trailer to the ground though.... :lol:
I believe that you can get the AccuRides at that Rockler link you have.
Main thing I'd recommend about slide outs, is to get the full extension type. :thumbsup:

[Plus I do like the Accuride ones even better....so far..

Model Eclipse 3132EC Undermount Slide...

Seems that they are lower than what the Finnish Ones Are and Height should be as low as possible...
