The Knape & Vogt 8900 Series is a 24 inch, full-extension, side-mount ball-bearing drawer slide in a zinc finish, built to carry demanding loads in cabinetry, shop furniture, and utility storage. With a 500 lb weight capacity per pair, these slides belong in drawers that need to work hard every day.
A 500 lb capacity pushes this well past the range of standard kitchen cabinet slides, making it the right choice where the drawer load is the real selection driver. Think machine shop tool chests, heavy-duty workbench drawers, server furniture, institutional casework, and garage storage where a loaded drawer might carry tooling, fasteners, or equipment. Full extension means nothing stays buried at the back — pull the drawer and every corner is reachable without digging.
Steel members with an electroplated zinc finish provide the corrosion resistance needed in dry indoor environments. Zinc here is a workhorse finish: it protects the steel through years of regular use without adding visual weight to the installation. This is a standard-motion slide — no soft-close, no self-close, no detents — so the drawer stays exactly where it is left. For applications requiring a closing mechanism, look to other slides in the 8900 program or the broader KV lineup.
Cabinet shops building high-capacity utility cases, contractors outfitting commercial workrooms, and serious woodworkers who need slides they will never have to think about again. The non-handed design and Poly-Pack packaging suit both one-off installs and production runs where consistent, reliable slides need to go in fast. The 24 inch length fits standard base-cabinet and workbench depths.
The 500 lb rating applies to the pair as listed — plan your drawer load against that number, not per individual member.
Build the drawer box 1-1/2 inches narrower than the cabinet opening — 3/4 inch clearance on each side for the slide to seat correctly.
It can, but face-frame installs typically need rear mounting brackets to support the back of the slide where the cabinet side is set back from the frame. Check whether the bracket required for your face-frame depth is available for this series before ordering.
No — standard motion means no hold-out detent. The drawer rolls freely and rests wherever it stops. For a slide that holds the open position, look for a hold-out variant in the KV lineup.
The zinc finish is suited to dry indoor service. For damp, washdown, or outdoor applications, specify a stainless steel slide instead.
When the drawer contents are heavy and full access is non-negotiable, the KV 8900 Series delivers the capacity and travel to keep the work moving.
