GN 1404 Telescopic Slides Steel, with Partial Extension, Load Capacity up to 175 lbf

For the listed loading forces F_S to be absorbed reliably in the surrounding structure, all available through holes / countersunk holes of the outer and inner slide must be used. Failure to use mounting screws reduces the specified load capacity accordingly. The following screws can be used for mounting:

Designation - Standard
Phillips countersunk flat head screw DIN 965
Phillips countersunk flat head self-tapping screw DIN 7997

Outer slide
M 5
Size 5

Inner slide
M 5
Size 4.5

The maximum load capacity of telescopic slides depends on the slide cross-section and the nominal length l₁ as well as the resulting stroke l₂. Furthermore, the extension width, the slide materials used and the components of the equipment options, such as the dampened self-retracting mechanism, have a corresponding influence.
The information on the maximum load capacity of the telescopic slides was determined in endurance tests under the following conditions:

• Slide arrangement in pairs, side mount
• Observance of all mounting information
• Warp-resistant test setup
• Equal distribution of the maximum load F_S over the entire extension area
• Standard slide spacing of 450 mm
• 10,000 or 100,000 test cycles (one extension and one retraction = one cycle)
• Gradual increase of the load

Wear, performance, and maximum bending were assessed after each test section.
