KV8815 12" Over Travel Standard Ball Bearing Drawer Slides, Unhanded Side Mount Zinc Bulk-Pack - 8815B 12

Knape And Vogt 12 Inch Over Travel Drawer Slides

Knape and Vogt 12 inch over travel drawer slides give a side mount solution that supports drawers carrying heavy loads while extending beyond the cabinet face. The 12 inch length suits shorter drawer depths where a full opening plus extra travel helps access the rear of the drawer. A 200 lb load rating means the slide is designed to support heavy drawers, so tool, parts, or hardware storage can stay on ball-bearing movement under substantial weight. The side mount drawer slide format works with standard cabinet box construction where you want the slide fastened to the cabinet side. A slide width of 3/4 inch allows the hardware to fit typical cabinet layouts that expect that profile. A height of 2.09 inches gives a taller slide body that helps support wide drawer boxes under load.

Key Drawer Slide Details For Heavy Use

• The KV Model 8815 in 12 inch length delivers over travel, so the drawer extends past the cabinet front and exposes more of the interior for faster access during daily use.
• A 200 lb load rating pairs with heavy-duty ball bearings that carry the heaviest loads without sticking, which supports smooth movement on drawers filled with dense items.
• The recommended use on drawers up to 42 inches wide lets this slide support wide storage, so base cabinets or tool drawers can be built broader without sacrificing support.
• Side clearance of 3/4 inch plus 0.03 inch minus 0 inch sets a clear spacing target, which helps the drawer box sizing match the slide for straight, low-friction travel.
• The non-handed design allows either side mounting position from the same part, so installers can stock one configuration and use it on left or right without sorting.
• A hold-in anti-rebound feature keeps the drawer from rolling back out after closure, which helps drawers stay shut in busy shop or cabinet environments.

Side Mount Drawer Slide Sizing And Fit

This side mount drawer slide uses a slide width of 3/4 inch, so the hardware profile aligns with common cabinet side clearances on many shop and residential builds. A stated side clearance of 3/4 inch plus 0.03 inch minus 0 inch defines the gap between drawer box and cabinet side, giving a concrete dimension when laying out drawer widths relative to the opening. The 2.09 inch slide height means the slide sits taller on the drawer side, helping stabilize wide or heavily loaded boxes. Recommended #10 x 5/8 inch Phillips flathead screws as fasteners set the fastening pattern expectations, which supports a firm mount into cabinet sides and drawer material.

Using KV 8815 Slides For Demanding Drawers

Where These 12 Inch Slides Perform Best

KV 8815 12 inch drawer slides are described as ideal for wide drawers with heavy loads, so they suit storage where width and weight come together in base cabinets, shop fixtures, or hardware pullouts. The ability to support drawers up to 42 inches wide ties directly to layout choices, because it allows broad drawers without resorting to multiple narrower units. Over travel means the drawer opens past the cabinet face, exposing the rear of the drawer box and helping reach items stored at the back without removing the drawer. The side mount format connects the slide to cabinet sides, which works well in frameless or face-frame designs that are already framed around side-mounted hardware. Heavy-duty ball bearings carry the heaviest loads without sticking, so repeated openings with full drawers stay consistent over time. The hold-in anti-rebound feature keeps a closed drawer from creeping open from movement, which supports orderly fronts on banks of drawers.

Details That Support Repeatable Drawer Results

The non-handed design lets one drawer slide model mount on either side, simplifying layout and reducing part sorting when building multiple cabinets or drawer banks. A defined side clearance of 3/4 inch plus 0.03 inch minus 0 inch sets the drawer box width relative to the opening, which helps align the slides so the drawer travels square without binding. The 3/4 inch slide width fits that clearance expectation, tying the hardware profile directly to the required gap. A 2.09 inch height gives more bearing surface along the drawer side, which supports wide drawers up to the recommended 42 inch width. Over travel also influences drawer face alignment, because the front can project beyond the carcass while still clearing the slide stroke. Recommended #10 x 5/8 inch Phillips flathead screws define fastener diameter and length, helping achieve a solid bite into cabinet sides and drawers without over-penetration.
