Ronthor Reiss Corp drawer slide

Is the 32-036 the replacement part for the Ronthor Reiss Corp slide #XX40-28; Pat. #3,201,187. I'm unable to read the "XX"s on the part number.

Paul, I've got the exact identical part and stampings on a broken piece except Pat. Pending was stamped at the time. It is broke off @ the open/slat drive area. I need one, but a couple would not hurt for backup's as this appears to be a weak area in this design. Mike M.

I need to replace these on about 13 drawers...the furniture is 45 years old and still good...but they were stapled orginally...can I use a permanent adhesive sealant to attach to the drawer?

I would not recommend an adhesive. If you are having trouble stapling these to the drawer, drill holes and screw to fasten. Take care not to use screws that are too long, as to not screw through the drawer.

The opening on my slide that I need to replace measures 1 1/8" by 9/16". Your description says 1 1/8" by 5/16". But it seems that the scale in the picture is closer to my measurements than the measurements given for the part. Is there a different part that would be a better fit or is this the one I need? The wooden guide measures @ 5/8" thick by 1" wide. Thank you.

See the picture in this discussion about the 32-036 slot opening. I double checked the measurement and the slot does measure 1-1/8" by 5/16". I do not see a guide on our site that matches your measurements but I will look in to bringing one in for you. What else can you tell me about your drawer guide? Such as brand or any patent numbers.

Thanks Paul, there is a star inside a circle & inside the star is writing, I think it says Temple Industries but it is very small & hard to read. There is a patent number 3-035-880. They attach to the bottom of the drawer in the back & the wooden rail is below the drawer. Thanks, Jeanie

I am having a hard time determining your drawer hardware. I believe I found your patent, it is for the Hitchcock self adjusting drawer system from 1960. Then I found another more recent patent for an improved drawer guide from 1982 filed by Kemp Furniture Industries, Inc., where the patent 3035880 was cited. Kemp Furniture Industries was bought out by Universal Furniture Limited in 1988. So basically the hardware is probably no longer in use and has not been used in a long while, so finding a replacement is really tough. I am looking for a similar replacement guide for you but have not had any luck yet. Your best bet may be to stop in a local furniture repair shop and see if they can fix it for you.

The 32-036 is the preferred replacement part for your Ronthor R 40-28. We only offer our SWISCO parts online.

On 5/23/2010, ksomeone wrote in and described a part that I too need to replace:

On 6/2/2010, your employee Paul replied:

I write to see if anyone has had success in sourcing these drawer guides.
Many thanks.
