Load Rating
Our commitment to quality is illustrated by rigorous testing of Illinois Lock Co. slides to ensure they meet industry-accepted criteria. Each Illinois Lock slide is tested a minimum of 50,000 cycles in accordance with applicable ANSI/BIFMA specification guidelines. Load ratings are based upon the dynamic load that an 18" pair of slides will carry without failure, with the rating decreasing proportionally beyond the 18" length. Static (resting) load capacity of each slide is at least twice the load rating, providing at minimum a 100% static safety factor even when the slide is loaded to its maximum rating. Illinois Lock recommends that slides are tested in your application in order to account for unique considerations that may affect performance.
