Knape and Vogt 8505 drawer slide identifies this left hand cabinet member as part of the KV 8505 Series, so it matches projects that are specd around this specific model. The 26 inch length supports file drawer applications that are designed for this travel dimension. Being a left hand cabinet member keeps orientation clear when laying out side mount hardware on larger jobs. The product is classified as a side mount drawer slide, which fits projects where slides are engineered to mount along the cabinet sides instead of underneath the drawer. Ball bearing construction defines the motion system, which supports a smooth sliding action in service. The file drawer focus places this slide in office, storage, or cabinet runs where drawers carry file system loads instead of small utility items.
The slide uses side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch on each side, which sets a defined gap for cabinet and drawer construction. That clearance range guides case and drawer sizing when laying out a bank of file drawers. The height of 3-51/64 inches including the quick disconnect rail establishes the vertical space required along the cabinet side. A 32 mm pattern is specified, which supports layouts that follow standard 32 mm system drilling. Side mount application aligns with cabinets where slide members are fastened to the cabinet side panels and corresponding drawer members.
The 26 inch length positions this member for file drawers that are engineered for that slide size, matching common file cabinet depths. Being a left hand cabinet member means it installs on the left side of the cabinet opening within a matched pair. The side mount classification suits casework where structure and clearances are designed around side-mounted ball bearing slides rather than undermount systems. File drawer designation connects it to drawers that hold files or similar organized materials in office or storage cabinetry. The anochrome finish provides a uniform metallic surface from the manufacturer, supporting a consistent appearance inside the cabinet run. Factory-attached drawer release clips with quick disconnect drawer members are part of the series features, which supports removal of drawers for service or adjustment once the system is assembled.
The specified side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch on each side gives a tight tolerance window that helps drawers track properly without excess play. This defined clearance also supports repeatable cabinet construction when multiple openings share the same slide specification. The height of 3-51/64 inches including the quick disconnect rail sets a predictable mounting band on the cabinet side, which helps align slides across a vertical run of drawers. The 32 mm pattern alignment supports installers who drill cabinet sides using 32 mm system equipment, reducing layout work. Recommended fasteners are #7 x 5/8 inch Phillips pan head screws, tying the slide to a specific screw size and head style for mounting. The positive in and out stops and the hold-in feature combine to control the working limits of the drawer, which supports consistent feel across a bank of drawers built with this series.
The slide is described as a ball bearing file drawer slide, so it is intended for drawers that store files or similar organized materials in cabinet or office environments.
The slide uses side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch on each side, which defines the gap between drawer and cabinet side panels during construction.
The member is 26 inches long, aligning with file drawer and cabinet designs that are engineered around a 26 inch slide length for proper travel.
The over travel feature lets the drawer move past full extension, which improves reach to files stored near the back of the drawer opening.
The slide is specified with a 32 mm pattern, aligning with cabinet side drilling that follows the 32 mm system for hole spacing.
Recommended fasteners are #7 x 5/8 inch Phillips pan head screws, which match the mounting guidance provided for securing the slide members.
This KV 26 inch file drawer slide fits jobs built around the Knape and Vogt 8505 Series, combining side mount layout with over travel and hold-in control. The defined side clearance, 32 mm pattern, and specified fasteners support predictable installation across cabinet runs. For projects matching these dimensions and mounting details, this left hand cabinet member aligns with professional file drawer construction needs.
