This is a 24 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from Knape and Vogt's 8400 series, finished in Ebony Black and rated 100 lb per pair. It combines a hold-in anti-rebound detent with smooth ball bearing travel — and does it in a finish that disappears against dark cabinet interiors instead of drawing attention to itself.
In a cabinet with a dark melamine or painted interior, a zinc-finished slide pulls the eye away from the box every time the drawer opens. The Ebony Black finish on this slide reads as part of the cabinet rather than as hardware layered on top of it. That matters most in open-shelf designs, floating cabinet islands, and drawers with no face frame to conceal the slide hardware. It also coordinates naturally with black cabinet pulls, black undermount sinks, and the matte black hardware pairings common in contemporary kitchen and bath projects.
At 24 inches, this slide length suits standard kitchen base drawers and most utility or office drawer boxes built to that depth. Full extension means the drawer clears the opening completely, so rear contents are reachable without reaching around or tipping the box.
The slide is cold-formed steel with the Ebony Black finish applied over the members. Steel ball bearings run in full-length raceways for smooth, consistent travel whether the drawer carries cutlery, files, or tools. The 1/2 inch side clearance requirement and 32mm-compatible hole pattern are the same as across the 8400 series, so this slide swaps into an existing layout without rework.
This is an indoor finish on an indoor slide. It is not rated for exterior, wet, or high-humidity environments — keep it inside dry cabinet work.
The Bulk-Pack format is aimed at cabinet shops and contractors running multiple drawers through a project. Slides arrive loose in a carton rather than individually packaged, which keeps the per-unit cost down when the job calls for a run of identically sized drawers. The non-handed design means one part number covers both sides of every drawer — no separate left and right SKU to track. For face-frame cabinet installations, rear mounting brackets are required to support the back of the slide; those brackets are sold separately and are series-specific to the KV 8400 line.
No. The hold-in anti-rebound detent is a mechanical catch that keeps the drawer closed once pushed shut and stops it from bouncing back open. There is no damper and no spring that pulls the drawer closed — the drawer stays where it is left. If you need a damped close, look at the KV FM soft-close series instead.
No. The required side clearance is 1/2 inch per side, the same as the zinc-finished 8400 series models. Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to leave 1/2 inch on each side.
Knape and Vogt recommends a maximum drawer width of 24 inches for the 8400 series. For wider drawers, step up to the KV 8500 series.
No. The 8400 series is non-handed — both slides in the pair are identical, so one part number covers both sides of the drawer.
Yes, but the back of the slide needs support. In face-frame construction, add the matching KV rear mounting brackets — sold separately — to carry the slide's back end. Those brackets are specific to the 8400 series.
The KV 8400 series in Ebony Black gives cabinet shops a 100 lb, full-extension slide with a stay-closed detent and a finish that coordinates with dark interiors — bulk-packed for the jobs that need more than a few pairs.
