Chambrelan Telescopic Slides and Guide Rails for High-Temperature Environments
Are the standard operating ranges of our telescopic or linear rails not sufficient for your application?
CHAMBRELAN can adapt its slides to meet your specific requirements and provide a tailored solution.
Our telescopic slides and linear rails can be modified for use in demanding high- and low-temperature environments, including:
- Ovens and proofers – for raising and lowering doors or extending trays
- Fireplaces and stoves – for sliding protective doors or railings
- Catalytic systems – for accessing the interior of the equipment
- Drying cabinets – for extracting trays and drawers
CHAMBRELAN also offers two locking systems suitable for high-temperature applications. For environments operating beyond standard temperature ranges, please contact us for further guidance.
A – Manual Lock
The manual lock is the most commonly used locking system for drawer slides and can be fitted to many of our ball-bearing slide models.
Three locking options are available:
- Lock-in – locks in the retracted position
- Lock-out – locks in the extended position
- Combination lock – locks in both open and closed positions
Like our telescopic ball-bearing slide range, these locks are designed to operate in temperatures from -20°C to +80°C as standard.
With appropriate modifications, they can withstand temperatures of up to 350°C.
To prevent damage to both the slide and lock mechanism, all plastic components must be removed prior to use in extreme-temperature environments.
Please note that CHAMBRELAN manual locks are compatible only with our telescopic slide range. If your application uses a linear guide rail or requires vertical deployment, we recommend our alternative locking system: the slam lock handle.
B – Slam Lock Handle
Our stainless steel slam lock handles are designed to provide three locking configurations:
- Slam lock handle in the closed position
- Double slam lock handle – locks in both open and closed positions
- Slam lock handle for double extension
In the standard version, these handles operate within a temperature range of -40°C to +70°C, with peak resistance from -50°C to +120°C.
However, if the operating environment exceeds these limits, caution is advised. Excessive heat may damage the plastic handle and push button components, potentially affecting the performance of the installation.
