The Pro Value Series PRO 5000 is a 24 inch side-mount ball bearing drawer slide rated 150 lb per pair, with 1 inch of over-travel and a hold-in anti-rebound detent. It is built for file drawers, lateral storage, and heavy utility drawers where a standard 100 lb cabinet slide comes up short.
A standard 100 lb cabinet slide is engineered for kitchen and utility drawers, not for the sustained weight of hanging files, reams of paper, or heavy shop stock. The PRO 5000 steps up with a 150 lb rating per pair, putting it in the same duty class as dedicated file slides. The 1 inch of over-travel is what separates it from a plain heavy-duty full-extension slide: the drawer pushes 1 inch past its nominal length at full open, so the rear of the drawer clears a countertop lip or a thick face frame. That extra inch means reaching the back of a hanging-file drawer or a storage drawer tucked under a worktop without digging for the contents. The hold-in anti-rebound detent adds a mechanical catch so the loaded drawer stays shut when closed firmly instead of rebounding open.
The slide members are cold-rolled steel with a bright zinc finish. Zinc plating is the working standard for side-mount ball bearing slides in indoor cabinet and shop environments — it resists surface corrosion through years of service without adding visual weight to the installation. These slides are visible alongside the open drawer, and the clean zinc finish keeps that view tidy. This finish is for dry indoor use; it is not rated for wet, washdown, or exterior applications.
Cabinet shops building office credenzas, file towers, and lateral-file bases reach for the PRO 5000 when the load spec rules out a standard kitchen slide. The 150 lb per pair rating covers a full lateral file drawer, and the 1 inch over-travel handles the countertop overhang that would otherwise block rear access. The non-handed design speeds up production installs — one SKU covers both sides of every drawer. Contractors retrofitting file storage into an existing face-frame or frameless cabinet will need to account for the 1/2 inch side clearance requirement per side. In face-frame cabinets, rear mounting brackets are required to support the back of the slide; brackets are sold separately and must match the PRO 5000 series. Sold as a pair.
The slide is 24 inches long. Over-travel carries the drawer member 1 inch past that nominal length at full open, so the drawer clears overhangs and deep face frames. Slide length and travel are two separate numbers — do not expect 24 inches of travel on a slide that does not reach full extension.
No. The hold-in anti-rebound detent is a mechanical catch that keeps the drawer closed and prevents it from bouncing back open. It does not slow or dampen the closing motion. There is no soft-close or self-close feature on this slide.
No. The PRO 5000 is non-handed — both slides in the pair are the same part. Order one pair per drawer.
Yes, but face-frame installations require rear mounting brackets to support the back of the slide. Brackets are sold separately and must be matched to the PRO 5000 series.
The slide requires 1/2 inch of side clearance per side, so build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening. Maximum recommended drawer width is not listed in the available source data for this series; confirm with the series specification sheet before building wide drawers.
When the load is real and the drawer needs to clear an overhang, the PRO 5000 delivers the capacity, the travel, and the stay-closed detent to keep the job moving without a return trip for a heavier slide.
