Re: [FTC]: Legality of Drawer Slides

If you want to be absolutely certain, post on the FTC official forums. The best Chief can give you is an informed opinion (which I'm happy to give).

Based on you cited rule (which I'm assuming is the one that allows COTS parts with a single degree of freedom), and last year's rules (which explicitly allowed drawer slides), I would say they are most likely perfectly legal this year, based on the rules and prior intent.
