KV 8407 18" Hold-In/Anti-Rebound Side Mount Full Extension 100 lb Ball Bearing Drawer Slide, Poly-Pack, Zinc, 8407P 18

Knape and Vogt 8407 Series Ball Bearing Drawer Slides for Everyday Cabinet Work

This is an 18 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from Knape and Vogt's 8407 series, rated 100 lb per pair and finished in zinc. The hold-in anti-rebound detent keeps the drawer firmly closed once pushed shut — a practical feature for kitchen, office, and shop drawers that see steady daily use.

Key Features

• 100 lb load rating per pair — covers loaded kitchen, utility, and office drawers with capacity to spare.
• Full extension — the entire drawer clears the cabinet face so contents at the back are fully reachable.
• Hold-in anti-rebound detent — a mechanical catch keeps the drawer closed and prevents it from bouncing back open after a firm push.
• Non-handed design — the same slide fits either side of the drawer, so there is no left-right sorting on the bench.
• Steel ball bearings in full-length raceways — smooth, consistent travel from empty to fully loaded.
• Zinc finish — standard corrosion protection for indoor steel slide members, functional and unobtrusive inside the cabinet.

Where the Hold-In Detent Earns Its Place

A plain ball bearing slide stays wherever it is left. That is fine until a loaded drawer gets pushed closed hard and bounces back an inch — leaving the front standing open. The hold-in anti-rebound detent on the 8407 series solves that with a mechanical catch: the drawer seats and stays put until intentionally pulled. This is not a soft-close or self-close feature. There is no spring and no damper. The detent simply prevents rebound, which is the right solution for shop drawers, office pedestals, and busy kitchen drawers where a positive closed position matters more than a silent close.

Zinc Finish on a Working Slide

Zinc plating over steel is the segment standard for a reason. It provides reliable indoor corrosion resistance without adding cost or changing the slide's profile. The zinc finish on the 8407 series is a functional surface — it sits inside the cabinet beside the drawer box and does its job out of sight. For applications that need a color match to white or dark interiors, other finish options exist in the same series. For most utility and kitchen work where the slide is hidden, zinc is the practical choice.

Cabinet Shop, Office Build-Out, or Home Renovation

The 8407 series fits comfortably across several buyer types. Cabinet shops running production kitchens get a consistent, non-handed 100 lb slide they can install without sorting parts. Contractors and designers specifying office furniture or built-ins get a detent feature that keeps drawers closed in high-traffic environments. Homeowners replacing worn slides in an existing kitchen get a drop-in-compatible 18 inch full-extension slide that does not require reworking the drawer box. In face-frame cabinets, plan for rear mounting brackets — the slide's back end needs support, and those brackets are sold separately and series-specific.

A Reliable Slide That Stays Out of the Way

The Knape and Vogt 8407 series gives a kitchen, office, or shop drawer full extension, a 100 lb rating, and a hold-in detent that prevents rebound — in a non-handed zinc slide that installs without fuss. This Poly-Pack ships one pair per bag, ready for the bench.
