PRO Value PRO100 10-Pair Box 10" Side Mount Full Extension 100 lb Ball Bearing Drawer Slide, Black, 4800-10-BK

Black Full-Extension Ball Bearing Slides for Tight Spaces and Dark Interiors

These are 10 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slides from the Pro Value PRO 100 series, finished in Black and rated 100 lb per pair. Designed for shallow drawers in cabinets where finish visibility matters, they deliver smooth, honest travel on a non-handed design that installs without sorting left from right.

Key Features

• Black finish blends with dark cabinet interiors and modern hardware palettes, keeping the hardware from competing with the drawer front.
• Full extension brings the entire drawer clear of the cabinet face so the back of a 10 inch drawer is fully reachable.
• 100 lb rating per pair handles a loaded spice drawer, shallow utility tray, or desk drawer without strain.
• Non-handed design means both slides are identical — no left/right distinction, no sorting on the bench.
• 1/2 inch side clearance per side follows the standard side-mount ball bearing format, so the drawer box is built one inch narrower than the opening.
• Standard motion — no self-close, soft-close, or detent; the drawer stays exactly where it is left.

Where a 10 Inch Slide Does Its Best Work

A 10 inch slide is the right choice when cabinet depth is limited: small island drawers, narrow desk pedestals, shallow spice pull-outs, and utility drawers in base cabinets where the depth behind the drawer front is tight. Full extension matters most in short drawers — when the box is only 10 inches deep, getting the whole interior out past the cabinet face is the difference between using the back of the drawer and ignoring it. The Black finish earns its place in painted or dark-stained cabinets, open shelving with a modern profile, and any setting where a zinc slide would read as an unwanted flash of silver beside a matte or satin-black drawer pull.

Steel Construction in a Finish That Holds Up

The slide members are cold-formed steel with a Black finish applied over the substrate. Steel ball bearings run in full-length raceways for consistent travel under load. This is a functional finish — it is designed to stay out of sight in the closed cabinet and to recede rather than reflect when the drawer is open. Like all indoor ball bearing slides, these are suited for dry interior applications.

Who Reaches for the 10 Inch Black Slide

Cabinet shops building modern flat-front or painted-box kitchens reach for the Black finish when the interior hardware needs to match a dark palette. Designers specifying shallow accent drawers in islands or built-ins choose the 10 inch length because the alternative — a longer slide in a short cabinet — wastes depth and may not fit. Homeowners replacing worn slides in a small desk or console table find the non-handed design straightforward: one part number, no handedness to track, screws go in either side. Sold as a pair, these slides cover one drawer opening.

The Right Slide for the Right Cabinet

A 10 inch Black full-extension slide is a precise tool: short enough for shallow cabinets, finished to disappear in dark interiors, and rated for a full working load. Get the depth right, build the box to 1/2 inch clearance per side, and the drawer will run clean for the life of the cabinet.
