Hi sir, from past one month my draw ball bearing was broken. I searched more videos to fix that but couldn't find. Now I watched ur video and learn how to fix that and i fixed it manually. Thank you so much and good job sir👍
Your very welcome this is why I post videos to try help people who might not know what I know
Thank you for your helpful video. I was able to strip down all the draw glides in my cabinet, clean them (using Turps), oil them with WD40 Anti-friction spray and reassemble them all from watching your video and reading some of the questions and answers in the comments. I'm so thrilled. They all seem to work perfectly now. Thank you.
Thank you Glenda very kind words and I'm happy I could help
Dude! You really are THE MAN! I was about to buy a new one 'cause I pushed a little too hard and made all the balls fall out.
Thank you for making your knowledge & experience available in such a clear fashion. I bought tool cabinets 'not as described' from a certain auction site & resigned myself to rebuilding the slides. Replacement balls ordered, but the issue I have found (as others commented) are the broken black plastic strips which I shall endeavour to reproduce as they appear to be unobtainable to purchase. However, with all of the slides I have to rebuild, I have sufficient component parts to rebuild a pair of slides or two, but I could not feed the slide past the plastic strips with balls in the way I tried! That is, with the metal caged components fitted first. You have encouraged me to try again using your method. Wish me luck! Kindest regards, Mark
Hi Mark yes that site can give some poor quality stuff but it's good to hear your willing to have ago and bring it up to standard, good luck mate
Thank you so much sir. I was struggling with my drawers that how to fix it.This video is a great help.❤❤❤❤
Found this video when looking to replace some drawer slides. Will try fixing the existing ones first now. They seem a little bent out of shape. Someone probably overloaded them. I'll see if I can bend them back into shape. 👍👍
I can’t believe that - Right; off to the garage to take the tool box apart 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for this helpful video, Sir 🙏 I was a bit distracted, worrying balls might get away from you and disappear into one of the work bench holes. But, maybe you're a daredevil, or maybe there's a fancy catch/ramp system under the bench like a pool table, or maybe that towel is magic... 🤔☺
Hi the holes are for bench dogs but yes many things go down but never get lost
Thanks I tried it and it work. You saved me a bundle.😊
Great speaker and teacher, thank you.
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Life saver.. thanks David.
It's was amazing to check your vídeo....I Learn a lot....
I have situation that I'm looking, my drawers have 3cm more that I need. It is possible to cut and adjust??
Many thanks.
Thank you
Very informative. I just fixed two slides..🙌🏾 woman D.I.Yer Thanks much
Thank you for your help . Great video.
thank you. saved my drawer slides.
Glad I could help Patrick
Nice job. 🍺🍺🍺👍👍
Nice! Thanks for posting.
Very good informative video. Is wd40 good to clean? Is white lithium grease good for lubricate?
Thank you and it's yes to both your questions
Thanks for your video; Followed your instructions and I serviced my pantry slides as they were stuck partly open wouldnt close and lock. Tried to reassemble the pantry and it stuck half way in; hits a hard stop on the bottom. The bottom is two slides the top is a single at top like a guide. I cannot see what is causing the hard stop; feels like it did before I took it apart;😒
It's always good to learn new things and get the confidence to have a go even if it doesn't always work out you get a little smarter
Thank you for the a very informitive video, its much appreciated. Based on your disassembly do you think it is possible to shorten an 80cm rail to a 75cm rail? or will cutting the front/back ends cause issues with the stoppers? where I am I can only get the rail i want in 70cm or 80cm but not 75cm... typically if the rail is for example 5.3cm wide and they rate a pair at 90kg do you think at full extension with 65kg load the flex/drooping down will be large?
( for a bit of context im making a sliding extension kitchen counter top with an approximate weight of 35kg and hoping to be able to extend the counter top out without needing any support legs, I am cosidering that the counter top weight plus additional weight placed onto the countertop whilst working on it and placing items..)
thanks in advance for all your input
Is there anywhere i can buy the plastic housing with ball bearing or without im talking about what you removed @2:10
Excellent! Can you tell me, what you used to clean the slides and what you used to lubricate the slides? Thank you.
Hi yes just simple white spirit and I lube normally with a dry lube of any make
Can you explain what you mean by spirits? Can I use 70% isopropyl alcohol? My drawers are getting difficult to open and shut. I used some oil spray, it’s slightly better. I thought if I cleaned it, then greased it like you showed, it would make glide easier. Thank you very much.
@@charnishi9095 hi yes White Spirit if you Google it you will find it but not sure what its called in out side the UK
Thank you for the video. I installed a full extension ball bearing style slide and it was working just fine. Decided to remove the drawer to sand and paint it and now the drawer won’t close all the way…it stays open about 4.5 inches. I taken it out and in several times and always stops at the same point. The slides move freely without the drawer. Can you think of a reason they won’t close anymore?
Well I just went back to the drawer…took it out and reinstalled for the 20th time gave it a little shove and it went all the way in and is working fine now. No idea why it worked this time but glad it did.
Good job
Where can I buy the ball bearing housings from mine are all broken.
Great video!! After reinstalling and the drawer is back in, how do you keep the drawer from coming out too far? When this happens the weight of the drawer causes the slider to come out of track and the bearings to fall out (again)...
It wouldn't be able to come out too far they have a plastic catch to stop them I think you need to be looking at the catch, compare it with other ones to learn how it should be
😊
Would white lithium lube work ok? If you use dry lube, how long does it last?
How many times do you open the draw
Do you know if the black plastic end piece you popped off is available as a replacement part? I have a broken one. I’m not even sure what it is to search for it. Thank you for the video, it’s very helpful!
I don't think any parts are available to buy
Thanks Sir
Where can I buy ball bearing strips to REPLACE the missing or broklen strips inside my ball bearing drawer glides?
I've no idea
should the ball bearings be lubricated?
Yes but only with a dry lub
Do you know where I can buy replacement parts for a tool box drawer slides? I need 2 roller straps and a plastic end cap
My ball bearing drawer slides have this gross oil on then and little balls keep falling out. Do I wash with soapy water and then spray with wd40?
No water us a spirit to clean then a dry oil
@@dmgladden Awesime thanks
Awesome
What brand of spirit cleaner? And what kind of dry lube
My drawers won't stay closed. Is it the rubber bumper?
No they are probably tilting slightly down at the front
Mya i ask what you used to clean everything ? my soft close wont stay shut... thx for the video
Hi for this I used GT85 spray oil its very good, as for yours not staying closedtry put a level on them see if the runners are sloping down at the front this will make them open
@@dmgladden thx - I am a rookie at this. The level seems spot on, not sloping forward or back. after you cleaned it do you put any lubricant on ? one guy said to use some dry lubricant. appreciate the help.
@@cmd41par hi yes he is correct only a dry lubricant as oil will collect dust but it's no good for the cleaning
Sorry meant to say if you drop the back of the glides a couple of mm the weight of the draw will keep it closed
I’m in California and looking online for GT85 spray oil. It’s not available here. Could anyone please recommend a similar product? Also a brand of dry lube as well? Thanks 😊
At 2:31 where can I find those strips that hold the ball bearing ??? Mine broke 😭
You can't you need to buy a new one
Would be helpful to have a lapel mic to hear better.
And now there is. Thanks
How do I remove the tracks tho
Pull fully out and you should see a little black plastic lever in the track move that up or down and it should free it to come out
Wear gloves folks
Hi your right but when doing intricate work i tend not to, like trying to pick up these tiny ball bearings with gloves on never works for me but you should try
