Maintenance and precautions of drawer slides

Drawer slides are important hardware accessories in home life. Today, let us take a look at the maintenance and precautions of slides.

1. Add lubricating oil to the drawer slide regularly, and wipe it with a dry soft cloth if it gets wet;

2. From time to time, check whether there are any small particles on the drawer slide rail, if necessary, clean up in time to avoid damage to the slide rail;

3. Measure the depth of the drawer before installation, choose the specifications and dimensions of the drawer slide according to the depth of the drawer, pay attention to the screw installation data, and reserve the screw installation position;

4. Regularly clean the drawer slide to avoid excessive load on the slide;

5. When purchasing, you can pull out the drawer and press it hard with your hand to see if it will loosen, squeak or turn over. A good drawer slide should not feel astringent when pushing and pulling the drawer. No noise

6. If the storage place is damp and oily, the slide rails must be packaged to avoid oil stains on the slide rails, which will cause the slide rails to move back and forth unsmoothly during use, and the skid rails will rust;

7. Drawer slide rails are coated with anti-rust oil on the surface when they leave the factory. If the slide rails are stored in the warehouse for a long time, please re-paint the anti-rust oil and store them in a dry place after packaging to prevent the slide rails from rusting;

8. Before installing the slide rail of the drawer, please wear gloves, wipe the anti-rust oil of the slide rail with a clean cloth, and then install the rail. Why wear gloves? Sweat is secreted from the hands, which can easily oxidize the surface of the slide rail, and rust will appear over time.
