Knape and Vogt 12 inch drawer slides give a full extension travel, so the drawer can open its full length and expose the entire drawer box for easier access to stored items during everyday use or servicing. The slides use ball bearing construction, which supports guided movement along the track and helps drawers open and close with a consistent feel across installations. A hold-in anti-rebound feature keeps the drawer in the closed position once pushed shut, which helps drawers stay put in cabinets that see frequent opening and closing. These slides are unhanded side mount components, so the same slide type works on either side of the drawer, simplifying layout when planning multiple drawer bays. The finish is ebony black, which provides a dark visual look that can blend with dark cabinet interiors when the slide is visible in the application.
These Knape and Vogt side mount drawer slides are specified as side mount components, so they are designed to fasten to the cabinet side and drawer side rather than the bottom, guiding layout choices in frameless or face-frame constructions. The recommended fasteners are #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips truss head screws, which provide a reference for shank diameter and head style when selecting screws to match the slide holes. A stated side clearance of 1/2 inch, plus 1/32 inch, minus 0 inch on each side defines the gap between the drawer box and cabinet opening, which helps support professional-looking reveals when the drawer front is closed. The slide height of 1-13/16 inch further defines the needed vertical clearance for the slide body, which helps avoid interference with drawer runners, stretchers, or adjacent hardware.
The KV Model 8400 designation paired with a 12 inch length matches shallow drawer applications, such as smaller utility drawers or upper cabinet drawers, where the cabinet depth will not support longer runners. A full extension travel lets the drawer open out to its full rated length, which supports clear visibility to the back of the drawer in compact cabinet bays. The ebony black finish presents a dark tone, which can visually recede against dark casework interiors in residential or commercial cabinetry. A 1-13/16 inch slide height and side mount configuration suit installations where the slide must sit along the drawer sides without occupying bottom clearance, which can help preserve interior drawer height. The 32 mm pattern callout connects well to cabinets drilled on a 32 mm line boring system, supporting alignment with existing system holes.
The non-handed design of these slides means each piece is not restricted to left or right use, which simplifies inventory for installers who work on larger runs and reduces time spent sorting parts during installation. A lever disconnect feature allows separation of drawer and cabinet members, which can help during finishing, transporting cabinets, or fitting drawer fronts where temporary drawer removal streamlines the work. The ball bearing construction and ball retainer latch work together to guide the moving member along the fixed member, which supports steady motion over the slide length. The specified side clearance of 1/2 inch, plus 1/32 inch, minus 0 inch on each side provides a defined tolerance window for drawer box fabrication, which supports consistent results when repeating the same drawer width across multiple cabinets. Referencing the recommended #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips truss head screws also aligns the fastener head and shank with the slide design, which supports a flush fit in the mounting holes.
The 8400B EB 12 is a Knape and Vogt Model 8400 side mount ball bearing drawer slide, which guides the drawer along the sides and supports smooth, supported travel in cabinet applications.
The KV 8400 12 inch drawer slides are described as full extension, so the moving member travels the full slide length, allowing access to the entire drawer depth when the drawer is opened.
These drawer slides specify a side clearance of 1/2 inch, plus 1/32 inch, minus 0 inch on each side, which guides the required gap between the drawer box and cabinet opening during construction.
The KV 8400 12 inch slide has a height of 1-13/16 inch, which defines the vertical space the slide body occupies and helps with planning clearances around the drawer.
The 32 mm pattern notation indicates hole locations that align with 32 mm system boring, which fits cabinet construction that follows that line-boring standard.
The KV 8400 12 inch slides list #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips truss head screws as the recommended fasteners, which aligns fastener size and head style with the slide mounting holes.
Choosing the Knape and Vogt 12 inch full extension 8400B EB 12 drawer slides sets clear parameters for side clearance, slide height, and mounting style, which supports accurate drawer box construction. Using the specified 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch, minus 0 inch side clearance on each side and the 1-13/16 inch slide height creates a consistent framework when planning cabinet openings, drawer sizing, and drilling based on the 32 mm pattern. The ebony black finish and ball bearing design combine visual alignment with guided motion, giving a defined solution wherever a 12 inch full extension side mount slide is needed.
