KV8400 20" Full Extension Hold-in anti-rebound Ball Bearing Drawer Slides, Drawer Member Unhanded Side Mount Zinc Bulk-Pack - 8400-92 20

Knape and Vogt 8400 Drawer Member For Full Extension

Knape and Vogt 8400 drawer member gives you the 20 inch full extension component of the KV 8400 ball bearing side mount slide. This drawer member works as part of a full extension slide system so drawers can travel their nominal length. The member is non-handed, so the same part serves either side of the drawer, simplifying layout and parts stocking. The height is 1-13/16 inches, which helps match standard drawer side heights in many cabinet constructions. The 32 mm pattern is present, supporting drilling patterns based on 32 mm cabinet systems. Side clearance is 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch on each side, which defines the gap between drawer and cabinet runners. The anochrome finish is applied to the member, providing a consistent metal appearance that pairs with other KV 8400 series components.

Key Drawer Member Details That Support Your Build

• The 20 inch length positions this drawer member for projects where a nominal 20 inch drawer is needed, helping match common cabinet depths in kitchens, shops, and office casework.
• Side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch on each side defines the drawer-to-cabinet spacing, guiding drawer box sizing so the slide can run without binding.
• The 1-13/16 inch height dimension allows you to coordinate drawer side height and screw placement, which supports consistent mounting along the length of the slide.
• The non-handed design means the same member can be used on either side of the drawer, simplifying inventory and reducing part mix-ups during installation or replacement work.
• The 32 mm pattern on the member ties into 32 mm system boring layouts, which can speed up line boring and maintain consistent spacing in production cabinetry.
• The anochrome finish on the steel surface provides a uniform look for exposed slide edges, which matters when drawers are opened frequently in residential or commercial settings.

Side Mount Drawer Member Fit And Mounting Details

This drawer member is part of a side mount, ball bearing slide design, so it fastens to the drawer side rather than the bottom. The recommended fasteners are #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips truss head screws, which match the member thickness and hole design for secure attachment. Because the side clearance is 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch per side, drawer width can be planned around that fixed clearance to support smooth travel. The 20 inch nominal length lets drawers extend their full length when matched with the correct cabinet member, supporting reach to the back of the drawer. The lever disconnect and ball retainer latch are features of the complete slide system that allow separation of components during assembly and removal.

Using This KV 8400 Drawer Member In Real Projects

Where This Drawer Member Fits In Cabinet Builds

This 20 inch full extension drawer member works within the Knape and Vogt 8400 series side mount ball bearing slide family, so it is used on drawer sides that run on matching cabinet members. In a cabinet where the case depth supports a 20 inch travel, this length lets the drawer open to reach storage at the back. The 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch side clearance on each side drives the net drawer width, so shops building multiple boxes can standardize their widths around that measurement. The 1-13/16 inch height coordinates with typical drawer side boards, which helps keep mounting screws clear of groove cuts and joinery.

Why These Dimensions Support Repeatable Drawer Results

The specified side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch per side gives a defined gap between drawer and cabinet, which helps reduce racking and drag when slides are installed on parallel case sides. The 32 mm pattern on the drawer member aligns with 32 mm system boring, allowing consistent hole spacing from job to job. The non-handed design reduces the chance of pulling the wrong part during assembly, which is useful on production lines and in field replacements. The anochrome finish coordinates visually with other anochrome 8400 series components, presenting a matched appearance when drawers are open in built-ins, kitchens, or office installations. The 20 inch full extension travel supported by the system is valuable in storage situations where front-to-back access is important.
