For Procurement Engineers

Working tools for procurement and SQE engineers: load-rating ladder for every slide section, RFQ checklist, quality documents we provide and a plain-English glossary of slide and Incoterm terminology.

This page collects the working data procurement and supplier-quality engineers ask for most. Everything here is also available as documents for your vendor file — request any of it via the RFQ form.

Load-rating ladder (per pair, at 18″ / 450 mm)

Pick the section by the weight the drawer must carry at full extension. All ratings are catalogue values from our current series.
