Pro Value Series 14" Over Travel Hold-In Ball Bearing Drawer Slides PRO 5000 Series, Unhanded Side Mount Zinc - 5000-14-ZPOT

150lb Over Travel File Slide 14 Inch Use

150lb over travel file slide 14 gives a side mount, ball bearing solution for box drawers and lateral drawers where smooth travel and firm hold-in are needed. The Pro Value Series PRO 5000 Series design delivers heavy duty extension with progressive movement, so the drawer opens in a controlled, even motion that helps keep loaded files or materials tracking straight. A 14 inch length supports typical file and storage drawer depths while keeping the slide profile manageable in cabinet construction. With a height of 3.79 inches, this slide provides a substantial bearing area that supports its rated performance in demanding cabinet installations. Bright zinc chromate finish offers a clean, uniform appearance that works well in commercial or shop environments. The unhanded side mount pattern simplifies planning, because the same slide style supports both box drawer and lateral drawer applications.

Key Drawer Slide Details For Everyday Jobs

• A side clearance of 1/2 inch sets a clear target for drawer box sizing, helping installers cut and assemble boxes that run smoothly without binding in the cabinet.
• The 14 inch length pairs with the 3.79 inch height to give a compact but capable slide, supporting file and storage drawers where space and load capacity both matter.
• Heavy duty extension with progressive movement keeps the drawer motion quiet and smooth, which helps protect contents from shock when opening and closing.
• Very quiet and smooth function supports use in office or shop settings where repeated drawer operation benefits from reduced noise and consistent action.
• Bright zinc chromate finish presents a professional appearance on exposed hardware while providing a uniform surface that complements typical cabinet interiors.
• The 32 mm pattern gives a repeatable hole layout, which speeds up drilling, mounting, and alignment across multiple cabinets built to system spacing.

Installation, Side Mount Fit, And Fasteners

This Pro Value Series PRO 5000 Series side mount drawer slide uses a 1/2 inch side clearance, so the cabinet opening and drawer width relationship stays consistent from job to job. The 32 mm pattern supports system drilling, allowing the same reference spacing when aligning the slide in cabinet sides. Recommended fasteners are #8 x 7/16 inch Phillips pan head (WW46000), and this sizing works with the provided mounting holes to seat the slide firmly against cabinet and drawer members. The drawer rail disconnects from the slide using a quick release clip, letting installers remove the drawer during fitting, then re-engage the rail after adjustments, which simplifies working inside finished casework.

How This PRO 5000 Slide Works On The Job

Where This Side Mount Slide Fits Best

This side mount, ball bearing drawer slide is designed for both box drawer and lateral drawer applications, giving flexibility across storage layouts in one product family. The product can be used in lateral applications up to 30 inches in width, so wide file drawers or lateral storage drawers can run on the same PRO 5000 Series hardware. Heavy duty extension with progressive movement supports drawers that must open fully while carrying organized files or materials, helping access the full drawer depth without excessive force. The 14 inch length suits common file cabinet depths, allowing drawers to extend out far enough for clear viewing and reach into the back. Bright zinc chromate finish matches many commercial cabinet interiors, keeping hardware appearance consistent when slides are visible during drawer travel.

Details That Support Repeatable Drawer Results

The 32 mm pattern built into this slide supports repeatable drilling and mounting, which is valuable when producing multiple cabinets on a system line or with jigs set to standard spacing. Side clearance of 1/2 inch gives a fixed dimension that translates easily into drawer width calculations, reducing rework caused by mis-measured boxes. The drawer rail disconnects from the slide with a quick release clip, so the drawer can be lifted off during layout checks, then set back on after adjustments, keeping alignment consistent without fighting full drawer weight. Handed slide members with unhanded rails allow the same rail design to serve both sides, while each slide member is built for its specific side, which helps maintain proper tracking. Very quiet and smooth function limits vibration on drawer contents, supporting organized file systems and reducing disturbance in office or shop spaces where drawers are used frequently.
