Wood as a living matter, does really support very well humidity and (or) an excessive heat as well as water. Therefore, slides storage shall have to be in a dry ventilated place, with no exposition to sun rays or near a source of heat. Possible finish products must have a solvent base and under no circumstance a water-soluble base.

The mechanical resistance of the slides is directly related to the length of the strips crossings. The definition of a table slide may be achieved in various ways. The economical approach consists in reducing at the maximum strips crossings, reducing that way the resistance of the product submitted to load. Risks are then important for the breakage of a slide submitted to excessive strength may lead to serious consequences on persons. Designers or manufacturers must also take into account the problems of the system stability : a central leg table with 3 leaves is very unstable and we strongly advise to impose the usage of supplementary legs in order to avoid any type of accident related to unbalance. in the same way, a four leg table with the same number of leaves shall have a poor mechanical resistance in the middle. Supplementary legs set in the centre would then support the load. Refer to Models per Series section to define the number of supplementary legs to be installed according to the type of slide used.

On request and in absolute confidentiality, TECHNILIGNE design department, starting from your drawing, achieves freely the definition of the product appropriate to your needs, with an approach combining usage safety quality and price concern.
