Knape and Vogt 12 inch over travel drawer slides give file drawers extra travel beyond the cabinet front, so folders clear the face frame and are easier to access in daily use. This 8505 Series side mount drawer slide uses ball bearing construction, which supports smooth, quiet motion when drawers are loaded and cycled repeatedly. The slide is unhanded, meaning the same member works on either side, which simplifies layout and reduces part sorting during installation. A hold-in anti-rebound feature keeps the drawer held shut at the back of travel, which helps prevent bounce-back in heavily used cabinets. Factory-attached drawer release clips create a quick disconnect drawer member, which speeds drawer removal when cabinets need service or adjustment. Positive in and out stops control travel limits, which protects both the slide and the cabinet. The slide is finished in anochrome, which provides a uniform metal appearance suited to shop and office casework.
This 8505B 12 drawer slide is a side mount ball bearing design, so it registers off the cabinet sides to establish drawer alignment in the opening. The specified side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch on each side tells how much space to allow between the drawer box and cabinet, which supports straight tracking and avoids binding. The height of 3-51/64 inch helps check whether the slide will clear drawer bottoms, stretchers, or dividers in a planned layout. A 32 mm pattern is provided, so the slide can align with system holes in frameless cabinetry, which supports repeatable mounting on line-bored casework. Recommended fasteners are #7 x 5/8 inch Phillips pan head, which match the slide holes and provide a bearing surface suited to steel slide members.
KV Model #8505 in the 12 inch length is suited to file drawer applications where controlled over travel and smooth action are important to the cabinet user. The side mount drawer slide format works with casework configured for side-mounted hardware, so it fits typical office, commercial, or shop drawer constructions that provide flat cabinet sides. The 32 mm pattern ties into line-bored panels, which benefits frameless cabinets built around system holes. Unhanded side members mean the same slide profile serves both left and right sides, which simplifies stocking and speeds selection on job sites or in the shop. An anochrome finish gives the steel members a consistent appearance that coordinates with many cabinet interiors, supporting a professional look when drawers are open.
The over travel function on this 12 inch drawer slide carries the drawer slightly beyond full extension, which helps hanging file folders clear the cabinet face for easier viewing and access. Positive in and out stops limit motion at each end of travel, which protects the ball bearing races and reduces impact on the cabinet structure over repeated use. Retainers that hold 3 bearings per inch of race distribute load along the slide, which supports smooth, quiet movement when drawers are loaded with files. The hold-in anti-rebound feature keeps drawers seated at the closed position, which supports tight reveals between fronts across a run of cabinets. Factory-attached quick disconnect clips let installers remove drawers without tools after mounting, which simplifies adjustments, finishing work, and service in tight spaces. Together, these details help the 8505B 12 slide support consistent alignment and operation in file drawer installations built for regular use.
