This is a 10 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from Knape and Vogt's 8400 series, rated 100 lb per pair, with a self-close spring that pulls the drawer fully shut and a hold-in anti-rebound detent that keeps it there. Sold in bulk pack for cabinet shops and production environments.
Short drawers in busy work environments get closed hard and often. The self-close spring on this slide captures the drawer in the last inch of travel and pulls it home without the installer or end user having to follow through. The hold-in anti-rebound detent adds a mechanical catch so the drawer does not bounce back open after that firm push. In a production cabinet shop, that combination means drawers in bathroom vanities, base cabinet pull-outs, and small utility boxes all close and stay closed — without adding a soft-close damper to the bill of materials. The 10 inch length suits shallow cabinets, rolling carts, and furniture drawers where the box depth runs between roughly 9 and 10 inches.
The slide members are cold-formed steel with a zinc electroplate finish. Zinc is the working standard for side-mount ball bearing slides: it protects the steel through years of indoor cycling and stays out of the way visually since the slide sits beside the drawer box rather than beneath it. This is not a decorative finish and is not rated for wet, exterior, or high-humidity environments. For those applications, look to a stainless steel slide.
The bulk-pack format is aimed at shops ordering in quantity rather than one-off retail buyers. Each slide is non-handed, so a single SKU covers left and right installations on every drawer in the run. The 1/2 inch side clearance per side is the standard for the 8400 series: build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening and the fit is dialed in. The 100 lb per-pair rating covers the standard residential and light commercial cabinet class. For drawers wider than 24 inches or loads well above 100 lb, step up to the KV 8500 series. Face-frame cabinet installations require rear mounting brackets, sold separately — the slide does not include them.
They are two separate mechanisms doing two different jobs. The self-close spring pulls the drawer fully shut once you push it within the capture zone. The hold-in anti-rebound detent is a mechanical catch that keeps the drawer closed and stops it from bouncing back open after a firm push. Together they ensure the drawer closes completely and stays that way — but neither is a soft-close damper. The drawer closes with spring force, not with a slowed, dampened motion.
The slide length matches the drawer box length, not the full cabinet depth. A 10 inch slide is designed for drawer boxes built to approximately 10 inches front to back, in cabinets with enough interior depth to clear the slide and any rear mounting hardware.
No. The 8400 series is non-handed, so both slides in a pair are identical. One SKU covers both sides of every drawer in the project.
Yes, but face-frame cabinets require rear mounting brackets to support the back end of the slide. The 8400 series rear brackets are sold separately and are series-specific — do not substitute generic rear brackets from another brand or series.
Pack quantity is shown in the product specification block on this page. The bulk-pack format is intended for shop and production quantities rather than single-pair retail packaging.
When the job calls for a short, self-closing drawer that stays shut through a workday of hard use, the KV 8400BRV in zinc gives production shops a reliable, no-sort solution at volume pricing.
