Description
The DTS-60 is the latest addition to the DTS range. Designed to hold a 500kg battery raft under a train whilst subject to severe shock and vibration and have a full service life of 25 years. This is very much a fit and forget product and with stocked lengths available to 2,000mm, has a very wide range of applications.
Constructed from cold drawn steel sections this ball-bearing drawer slide has a high precision and excellent level of resistance to shock and vibration when supporting a static load in the closed position. Accordingly the slide is well suited to mounting on vehicles. Constructed in the tried and tested I beam format, this telescopic slide offers a low overall slide height for its high load capacity. Due to the extreme torsional strength in the mobile ‘I’ beam, the slide can be supplied with a 120% extension with no loss of load as a no cost option.
This heavy duty slide also has good resistance to applied loads when in the extended position making it an excellent choice for dynamic applications and manually operated systems. Additional slider variations may be produced with alternative closed lengths, extensions, mounting systems, surface treatments, and ball bearings. This product may also be used in its minor axis but the load capacity will be reduced to 60% of the stated load capacity in the major axis, depending on type of fabrication and length of slide.
The DTSB version of this slide is fitted for an extension front and rear, equal to the closed length. Please ask our engineers for further information.
The entire range is manufactured from high grade steel type C45 E+C which ensures a slide with strong raceways, fit for the industrial purpose they were designed. The performance is far superior to slides made from XC10 through to XC35 which suit a volume manufacturing process. Standard ball cages are manufactured from zinc plated sheet metal, and the ball bearings are carbon steel C85 G100 in accordance with DIN 5401. An individual slide weighs 10.50kg per metre.
Prices are per single slide. Loadings are given per extended pair. There are two slides per pair. The DTS-60 is stocked across all lengths up to 2,000mm. For higher volume or non-standard lengths, please allow 3-4 weeks for manufacture or consult our sales engineers. Our stock holding is constantly growing to meet customer demands.

These are an almost exact replacement for slides we have been getting from a Uk agent. Unfortunately we were not advised of their extended factory shutdown, so we had to source other product at short notice.
The DTS60 slide compares favourably with a more precise extension. Further they were much reduced in price and received within a day.

Thank you Colleen for the help over the last few weeks while we discussed various products. Having them all to compare within one site made it a lot easier, so we settled on the DTS60 and the first batch arrived last week.They are working well, the customer is pleased and I believe we have placed a scheduled order already.

this is just an awesome slide. One handed operation on a 900Lb load. Super smooth operation. Im sure it can handle larger loading. Heavy duty end stops. Nice and compact
Easy guys to deal with. fast shipping from stock. Absolutely would recommend.

Four slides length 60 inches delivered to Chicago in five days. Freight was negligible. These are due to be fitted on a rig, so pretty demanding load wise.
Same time tech advise too, which helped turn the project quickly. These guys are switched on.

we had 2 pairs of the DTS60 delivered in two days at 1.6 metres from stock. Amazing service compared to the also rans. Quoted at 11pm and ordered 30 mins later.

The slides have a smooth action under load. There are heavy duty stops fitted front and rear to contain the balls. The beams are zinc plated with passivation. They are very heavy, with the central beam able to support extreme loads. Delivery was quick and the tech support in line with other comments.

I allowed three weeks for this to be delivered and they arrived next day. Four pieces at length 750mm. They look pretty awesome slides compared to the lighter weight ones we usually take.

I was pleased to see the slides arrive five days after ordering in Ontario, Canada. I took the 600mm length and they look very meaty indeed. I think there is some serious safety margin in these sliders, which suits me fine. I will post further when we have carried out the testing, but I see no issue here.

I was surprised at receiving a call back from your sales office immediately after placing my inquiry thru this site. I work out of ours as a design engineer and getting product support New Year’s Eve, 8pm was totally unexpected. After reading other reviews, this appears to be a common rating. I was able to download 3D models and get price info instantly.

thanks Jon for the late night technical advise to push this project forwards. We have won the contract and the slides came in well under budget. The DTS60 is a beast of a unit!

The DTS60 is an extreme slide. Far heavier than sliders we have used before and certainly up to the job. There is another supplier in the UK who we have used previously for this slide, but problems with supply and inconsistent pricing forced us to look elsewhere and found this site, which is Sliding Systems online shop. The DTS slide has milled ball races which lead to a highly accurate travel, unlike the previous slide which was fitted very loosely.
Then there was the price, the other supplier wanted £140 a slide against the DTS60 at £89. They also had a very high shipping charge probably because it’s manufactured in France.
All in all this is a very professional company to deal with.

After a morning of calling other slide manufacturers I found Sliding Systems. Promounts is their online sales site.
I got put through to John, who fortunately had a lot of experience in mounting extreme draws on trucks. He recomended the DTS60 due to the high level of shock they can take. (I was offered aluminum by other dealers in the US, which was not suitable for the 6′ draw width)
The slides were delivered in 3 weeks and they have fitted well. These slides are exceptionally heavy duty.
