Abstract
An improved slide arrangement for mounting between the bottom edge of a drawer and the drawer support. The bearing member formed of sheet material having a coefficient of friction less than 0.25 and having a plurality of bearing sockets. The bearing sockets formed by molding, drilling or perforating the bearing member. A laser can also be used to carve the bearing sockets. A roller or ball bearing is inserted into each socket molded or carved to a preselected size and shape thereby holding the bearing in place. A bearing is placed within each drilled or perforated socket and each socket edge is punched to form a flange around the edge of each socket thereby holding the bearing in place. A reinforcing member formed of sheet material having a coefficient of friction less than 0.25 can be applied to the longitudinal edge of the drawer to present a resilient working edge with a low coefficient of friction to the ball or roller bearings.
