This 16 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from GSlide's G-Slide series delivers smooth travel on steel ball bearings and a hold-in anti-rebound detent that keeps the drawer firmly closed until intentionally pulled. Rated 100 lb per pair, it fits the broadest range of standard cabinet and shop drawer applications.
A drawer that bounces back open after a hard push is a daily irritation in a busy kitchen and a genuine hazard in a shop or garage. The hold-in anti-rebound detent on this slide solves that problem mechanically: when the drawer is pushed shut, the detent catches and holds it there. The drawer does not drift, vibrate open, or rebound from a firm close. It releases with a normal pull. This is a standard-motion slide with no spring assist and no damper — the detent holds the drawer in place; it does not pull it shut or slow it down.
At 16 inches, this length suits shallower base cabinet drawers, bathroom vanity drawers, and desk drawers where a longer slide would crowd the available depth. Full extension means the back of the drawer comes all the way out to the cabinet face, so no contents are hidden when the drawer is open.
The slide members are cold-formed steel with a zinc finish — the standard material and finish combination for side-mount ball bearing slides in indoor cabinetry. Zinc provides reliable corrosion resistance for dry interior environments. This is a functional, mostly hidden finish: the slide sits beside the drawer box and is visible only when the drawer is fully open. The 1/2 inch side clearance is built into the design, so build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to fit both slides.
The 16 inch G-Slide is well matched to bathroom vanities, nightstands, home office desks, and any base cabinet where drawer depth runs on the shorter side. The 100 lb per pair rating covers the everyday range of contents from cutlery to office supplies to small tools. Cabinet shops running a mix of drawer depths will find the non-handed design speeds bench work — no left or right to track across a run of boxes. In face-frame cabinets, add matching rear mounting brackets (sold separately) to support the back of the slide.
No. The detent is a mechanical catch that holds the drawer in the closed position. It does not slow the drawer down or pull it shut — there is no damper and no spring. Push the drawer closed and the detent holds it; pull and it releases normally.
Slide length is the closed measurement of the hardware — 16 inches is the length of the slide when retracted. Because this is a full-extension slide, the drawer travels approximately the full slide length, bringing the drawer box clear of the cabinet opening. Slide length and drawer travel are closely matched on full-extension slides, but they are two separate specs.
No. The G-Slide is non-handed, so both slides in the pair are identical. Order one pair per drawer regardless of which side is which.
Allow 1/2 inch of side clearance for each slide — build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet interior opening from side to side.
Yes, but side-mount slides in face-frame cabinets need rear support at the back of the slide. Use series-matched rear mounting brackets, sold separately, to bridge the gap behind the face frame.
The GSlide G-Slide 16 inch slide pairs full extension with a hold-in anti-rebound detent — a combination that delivers complete drawer access when open and a drawer that stays exactly where it is put when closed.
