Knape and Vogt 24 inch drawer slide 8505B 24 is a side mount ball bearing slide designed for file drawer applications where smooth travel and consistent clearances matter. The slide has over travel, so the 24 inch length allows the drawer to extend beyond the cabinet face, helping access files at the back without shifting the cabinet layout. The unhanded design means each member works on either side, which simplifies layout when planning multiple file drawers in a run. This 8505 series slide is identified as a file drawer slide, giving a clear fit for heavy-use storage in filing cabinets and similar casework. The slide is manufactured in the USA, which provides traceable origin for commercial or institutional projects that call out domestic hardware. The anochrome finish provides a uniform, neutral metallic appearance that coordinates with common cabinet interiors on job sites.
This Knape and Vogt 8505 series 24 inch slide is described as a side mount drawer slide, so it fastens to the cabinet side and drawer side rather than under the drawer. The specified side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 each side provides a clear target when building drawer boxes for file storage, helping installers keep racking and binding to a minimum. The slide height of 3-51/64 inches gives enough vertical footprint to support file drawers while still fitting standard cabinet rail layouts. The 32 mm pattern reference ties mounting positions to a familiar system hole grid, which supports faster layout in commercial casework shops using line boring equipment.
The KV model 8505 drawer slide is specified as a file drawer slide, so it suits cabinets built around file storage where drawers see regular cycling. The 24 inch over travel drawer slide length works with file drawers sized around 24 inches deep, so files near the back are easier to reach when the drawer is fully extended. As a side mount drawer slide, it attaches to cabinet sides, fitting common plywood or particleboard casework without changing to special bottom-mount drawer boxes. The 3-51/64 inch slide height helps it fit within standard vertical spacing in multi-drawer file cabinets. With a 32 mm pattern reference, it integrates into cabinet systems that already use 32 mm row drilling, which streamlines production runs and keeps hole layouts consistent between projects.
This side mount ball bearing file slide uses progressive movement on ball bearings, so the members extend in a coordinated sequence that feels smooth over the full stroke. The retainer holds 3 bearings per inch of race, which distributes the load across more contact points and supports quieter operation in office settings. Factory-attached drawer release clips with quick disconnect drawer members allow drawers to be removed without tools at the hardware interface, which is useful when fitting drawer faces or servicing interiors in built-in cabinets. The hold-in anti-rebound feature adds resistance near the closed position, helping drawers stay seated rather than drifting open from minor vibration. Positive in and out stops define end positions, so drawers stop consistently without over-stressing the slide. The anochrome finish provides a consistent surface that works well where exposed slide edges may be visible when drawers are open.
The 8505B 24 slide is described as a file drawer slide, so it is intended for file storage drawers that need full access and frequent opening in cabinets.
The 24 inch over travel drawer slide lets the drawer extend beyond the cabinet face, improving reach to files and contents at the back of deep drawers.
The slide uses side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 each side, so drawer box widths can be sized to match that gap for smooth movement.
The hold-in anti-rebound feature helps drawers stay closed, while positive in and out stops define end positions, supporting controlled travel in daily operation.
The side mount ball bearing file slide references a 32 mm pattern, aligning with cabinet systems that use 32 mm hole spacing for hardware placement.
The recommended fasteners are #7 x 5/8 inch Phillips pan head, which suits securing the slide members to cabinet sides and drawer sides as specified.
The 8505B 24 over travel slide from Knape and Vogt pairs side mount installation with file drawer duty, progressive movement, and a defined 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 each side clearance. For file storage casework built around a 24 inch depth, this anochrome-finished, made in USA slide offers a clearly specified option with quick disconnect drawer members, hold-in anti-rebound, and a 32 mm pattern reference that fits into planned cabinet layouts.
