This is a 14 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from Knape and Vogt's 8650 series, rated 150 lb per pair with an integrated soft-close damper. It brings a heavy-duty load class together with damped closing in a zinc-finished steel slide built for production cabinet shops and serious build-outs.
Standard 100 lb cabinet slides cover most kitchen drawers, but some applications genuinely push past that class: heavy pot drawers loaded with cast iron, deep utility drawers in a shop or garage, storage pull-outs in a mudroom or pantry, and commercial casework that gets used hard every day. The 8650 series is the answer for those drawers — it carries the extra weight and still delivers soft-close closing so the cabinet stays quiet. At 14 inches, it fits shallower drawers in islands, base cabinets with limited depth, and specialty pull-outs where a longer slide will not fit the cabinet interior.
Zinc plating is the workhorse finish in this segment: it protects the steel members from indoor moisture and handling without adding cost or thickness to the profile. On a side-mount slide, the finish sits mostly out of sight beside the open drawer box, so the practical protection matters more than the appearance. The zinc here is the same functional coating found across the 8650 series line — consistent across a production run and easy to match when adding slides to an existing cabinet order. This is an indoor finish; it is not rated for wet, exterior, or marine environments.
Cabinet shops building heavy-duty residential or light commercial casework will find the 150 lb rating and soft-close combination in a single SKU saves a spec step — no need to choose between load capacity and motion quality. Contractors fitting out mudrooms, laundry rooms, garage cabinets, or commercial break rooms get a slide that handles real-world abuse without the drawer slamming shut. The bulk-pack format is aimed at volume buyers: the slides ship loose in a carton, priced for shops ordering in quantity rather than by the pair. Each slide is non-handed, so the same pack stocks both sides of every drawer on the job.
Per pair. Both slides working together carry 150 lb — do not double the number by counting each slide separately.
1/2 inch per side. Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to leave the correct gap for each slide.
Yes, but face-frame construction requires rear support at the back of the slide. Add the matching KV rear mounting brackets, sold separately, to support the slide's back end in a face-frame install.
Full extension means the drawer member travels approximately the full slide length, bringing the whole drawer out to the cabinet face. The 14 inch figure is the closed slide length, not the drawer opening distance — but on a full-extension slide the travel closely matches the slide length.
No. Soft-close uses a damper that slows the drawer to a quiet, controlled close. Self-close uses a spring or ramp that pulls the drawer shut without damping and can still slam. The 8650 series has a true soft-close damper.
The KV 8650 series 14 inch slide covers the drawers that standard cabinet slides are not built for — high loads, daily use, and buyers who will not accept a slamming drawer — all in a zinc-finished steel slide that installs the same way as any standard side-mount pair.
