This is a 26 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from GSlide's G-Slide series, rated 100 lb per pair, with an integrated soft-close damper that brings even a loaded deep drawer to a quiet close.
At 26 inches, this slide is the right choice when the cabinet runs deep and the drawer contents need to come all the way out. Full extension means the intermediate member carries the drawer box clear of the cabinet face, so the back corner of a spice pull-out or the bottom of a stacked pot drawer is within reach rather than buried. The soft-close damper is integrated into the slide body, so there are no add-on modules to align or replace — press the drawer closed within the capture zone and the damper takes over, bringing it home without a slam. This is damped soft-close, not a spring self-close: the closing is slowed and controlled, not just pulled shut.
The slide members are cold-formed steel, running on full-length ball bearing raceways that distribute load evenly across the drawer's travel. Zinc finish provides indoor corrosion resistance on the steel members — it is a functional, durable coating suited to the dry interior of a cabinet, not a decorative surface finish. At the 26 inch length, the full-length raceways matter: a longer slide under load puts more stress on the bearing system, and steel ball bearings maintain smooth, rattle-free travel where nylon rollers would compress or wear unevenly over time.
Cabinet shops and contractors reach for 26 inch slides when building tall base cabinets, deep pantry towers, or kitchen islands with full-depth drawers. Designers specifying high-use kitchens will find the soft-close feature essential at this length — a loaded 26 inch drawer carries real momentum, and damped closing protects both the cabinet and the contents. Homeowners replacing worn slides on a deep kitchen or laundry cabinet get a straightforward drop-in at the same mount position. Because the slide is non-handed, both sides of a drawer use the same part, which simplifies ordering for a multi-drawer run. Plan for 1/2 inch of side clearance per side when sizing the drawer box.
It is soft-close — a damper slows and controls the drawer over the last inch of closing travel. It is not a self-closing spring ramp, which pulls the drawer shut without slowing it. The result is a quiet, controlled close rather than a positive snap.
Match the drawer box depth to the slide length. A 26 inch slide is designed for a drawer box nominally 26 inches front-to-back. Confirm the cabinet's interior depth provides enough clearance behind the slide before cutting stock.
The G-Slide series requires 1/2 inch of side clearance per side. Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to split that clearance evenly.
Yes. Side-mount ball bearing slides need rear support in a face-frame cabinet because the cabinet side is set back from the frame. Add matching rear mounting brackets at the back of the opening. Brackets are series-specific and sold separately.
No. The G-Slide is non-handed — both slides in a pair are identical and fit either side of the drawer without modification.
When the drawer runs deep and quiet closing matters, the GSlide G-Slide 26 inch soft-close ball bearing slide delivers full access and damped closing in the same compact side-mount package — one pair per drawer, ready to install.
