(1) A revolution of slide structure
The common structures of slides are roller and ball bearing. The roller slide, as it name implies,
consists of four directional rollers. This design has the advantage of smooth gliding and strong
stability in vertical and horizontal direction. However, it requires high precision in manufacturing
and the inherent design flaw often creates a shifting of balance when the drawer is operating.
The shifting of balance will often cause the drawers to be either too tight or too loose causing
inconveniences. The ball bearing slides use steel balls as rolling intermediaries to create the
sliding motion. It’s has a more lenient manufacturing requirement because the size of the balls
can be altered to fit different designs. Also, because there’s less space between the balls
compared to roller slide structure, there will not be a shifting of balance. However, the ball
bearing structure will create more noise. Also, the steel balls are often too hard to the slides
while plastic balls are too soft, causing a slightly more unstable horizontal movement.
King Slide’s slides are the best of the two. It uses roller in the inside and ball bearing on the
outside. It combined the benefits of both while solving any disadvantages known. Not only is
the structural design simpler, its performance has also improved. The special design of the
middle and outer segments also enhanced the integrity of the slides. This combination greatly
reduced the shifting of balance problem and increases the overall stability of the slides.
(2) A revolution of slide function
World’s first and only all-mechanical design combines push-to-open and self-soft-closing
technology in an under mount slide. The drawer will only open upon a light push, avoiding
accidental opens that’s common in sensor-based drawers. The self-soft-closing design uses
hydraulic damping system, which is the best in absorbing shocks and made silent-closing
possible. Its special characteristic also allows for ultra smooth gliding motion of the drawer.
(3) More flexible and ergonomic usage
When installing slides, user often cannot achieve a precise installation, which causes numerous
problems in the future and lowered the life expectancy of the slides. Flexibility allows for the
slides to match up different situations and prevent minor installation mistakes. The adjustment
tools can be used to perform minor adjustments thus solving this problem.
World’s first electric-free all-mechanical design to achieve
push-to-open with silent soft-closing drawer slide function.
