This is a 22 inch side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from Knape and Vogt's 8815 series, rated 190 lb per pair, with 1 inch of over-travel that carries the drawer past the cabinet face. The zinc finish is the defining choice here: bright, corrosion-resistant, and well suited to shop drawers, utility cabinets, and workspaces where a clean metal appearance complements the hardware around it.
Over-travel earns its keep in drawers that sit beneath a countertop overhang or behind a deep face frame. At full open, the drawer does not stop at the cabinet face — it pushes 1 inch past it. That extra travel means the contents at the very back of a 22 inch drawer are visible and reachable without digging. Common fits include tool chest drawers under workbench tops, utility cabinet drawers beneath countertop overhangs, and any installation where standard full extension leaves the rear of the drawer in shadow. Because this is a standard-motion slide, the drawer stays wherever it is pushed — open, closed, or anywhere in between — without a spring pulling it back or a detent holding it in place.
The 8815 series is built on cold-formed steel members with a bright zinc electroplate. Zinc is the working standard for side-mount ball bearing slides in indoor applications: it protects the steel against the humidity and minor corrosion exposure common in shops and garages without adding the cost of stainless. The zinc finish also gives these slides a clean, consistent metal appearance that reads well in open storage and workshop installations where the hardware is visible. This is an indoor finish — for wet or washdown environments, a stainless or epoxy-coated slide is the right call.
Cabinet shops and contractors building utility storage, shop furniture, or workbench drawers will find the 8815's 190 lb rating and over-travel practical rather than optional. A drawer loaded with hardware, files, or tools can approach or exceed 100 lb quickly, and standard cabinet slides leave no margin. The 190 lb rating per pair gives that margin back. The 3/4 inch side clearance per side is wider than the 1/2 inch standard on most ball bearing slides, so the drawer box needs to be built 1-1/2 inches narrower than the cabinet opening. These ship as a Bulk-Pack, the format that suits shops installing multiple drawers at a time.
No. Twenty-two inches is the closed length of the slide. Because this is an over-travel design, the drawer member extends approximately 22 inches plus 1 additional inch of over-travel, so the drawer clears the cabinet face by that extra inch. Slide length and drawer travel are two separate specs.
The 8815 series requires 3/4 inch of side clearance per side — wider than the 1/2 inch standard on most ball bearing slides. Build the drawer box 1-1/2 inches narrower than the cabinet opening to leave the correct gap for each slide.
Yes — this is a standard-motion slide with no hold-out detent or self-close feature. The drawer stays wherever it is left, including at full open. If you need the drawer to hold in the open or closed position, look for a hold-out or hold-in variant.
No. The 8815 is non-handed — both slides in a pair are identical, and either one fits either side of the drawer. Order the quantity that matches your drawer count.
In face-frame construction, the cabinet side is set back from the front frame, so the slide needs support at the rear. Add the compatible KV rear mounting brackets, sold separately. In frameless (Euro-style) cabinets, the slide mounts directly to the cabinet side panel.
The KV 8815 series in zinc brings together over-travel reach, a 190 lb per pair rating, and a non-handed design in a bulk-pack format that keeps high-volume drawer work moving without extra trips to the hardware shelf.
