This is a 24 inch side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from Knape and Vogt's 8605 series, rated 140 lb per pair with 1 inch of over-travel that carries the drawer past the cabinet face to clear countertop overhangs and deep face frames. Sold in bulk packaging, it is the practical choice for shops ordering in volume for production runs or multi-drawer projects.
A plain full-extension slide brings the drawer to the cabinet face and stops there. When a countertop overhangs the cabinet front, or when a deep face frame sets the opening back from the box, that stopping point leaves rear drawer contents partially blocked. The 8605's 1 inch of over-travel moves the drawer past that boundary so the back of a 24 inch drawer is genuinely reachable. This matters most in kitchen base cabinets with stone or solid-surface countertops, shop benches with thick worktops, and any face-frame cabinet where the frame depth eats into accessible travel. The 140 lb rating keeps pace with the application: a drawer sitting under a worktop is often a utility or storage drawer carrying tools, files, or supplies that push past what a standard 100 lb slide is designed for.
The 8605 series is built from steel with a zinc finish — the standard corrosion-resistant finish for side-mount ball bearing slides intended for indoor cabinet work. Zinc protects the steel members against moisture from normal indoor environments and stands up to the repeated contact of opening and closing cycles. It is a functional, low-profile finish that sits beside the drawer box mostly out of sight. For outdoor, wet, or high-humidity environments, this slide is not the right choice.
Cabinet shops building kitchen and bath cabinetry with overhanging countertops reach for over-travel slides as a matter of course — and the bulk packaging here suits that workflow. Contractors sourcing hardware for a run of base cabinets get the same benefit without switching to a heavier, more expensive heavy-duty class. The 140 lb rating also makes this slide a strong fit for shop drawers, utility cabinets, and workbench storage where the drawer contents are heavier than a typical kitchen load. The non-handed design simplifies inventory: one part number covers every position in the cabinet.
No. Twenty-four inches is the closed length of the slide. The drawer travels the full slide length plus the 1 inch of over-travel — so it extends past the cabinet face by that extra inch, not past 24 inches of open space. Measure the cabinet's interior depth to confirm the slide length fits before ordering.
No. The 8605 is a standard-motion slide — there is no damper, spring, or detent. The drawer stays at whatever position it is left. If damped closing matters for the application, look at a soft-close side-mount model in the same load class.
No. The slide is non-handed, so both pieces in a pair are identical. Order one pair per drawer regardless of which side each slide installs on.
The slide requires 1/2 inch of side clearance per side. Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to leave the correct gap for each slide.
The slide installs in face-frame and frameless cabinets, but face-frame construction requires rear support for the back of the slide. Add the appropriate rear mounting brackets for your cabinet construction — brackets are sold separately and are series-specific.
When the countertop or worktop overhangs the cabinet front, the 8605 series delivers the extra inch of travel that makes the back of the drawer accessible — paired with a 140 lb capacity that keeps up with serious storage loads.
