Knape and Vogt 20 inch over travel soft close drawer slides are side mount ball bearing slides that support drawers in cabinet projects where controlled closing and extra extension are needed. The 8655 Series soft close ball bearing slides use ball bearings to guide the drawer, which provides smooth movement under load in shop and jobsite applications. A 20 inch length slide matches common cabinet depths, so it fits typical base and utility cabinet layouts. The drawer slides are rated at 140 lb, which supports heavier drawer contents used in many woodworking and storage builds. Side mount installation places the slide on the cabinet side, which suits face frame and frameless cabinet construction that already allows for side clearance. Soft close action slows and pulls the drawer closed, which helps limit slamming in frequently used drawers. Overtravel of 1 inch lets the drawer extend past full extension, which improves access to the back of the drawer.
These 8655FMB 20 drawer slides use side mount installation, which sets the hardware along each cabinet interior side and the corresponding drawer sides during layout. A specified side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 0.1 inch minus 0 inch on each side directs the exact space between drawer and cabinet, so drawer width can be planned around that measurement. The 2 inch height of the slide indicates how much vertical space is occupied on the drawer side, which matters when designing shallow drawers or fitting above roll-out trays. The recommended #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips pan head fasteners match the mounting holes, which supports consistent anchoring into cabinet sides and drawer boxes. A butterfly disconnect lever provides a defined release point between drawer member and cabinet member, which simplifies removal and reinstallation of the drawer for finishing or adjustments.
The 20 inch 140lb soft close over travel slide works in cabinet applications that match a 20 inch slide length, such as many kitchen, bath, and shop cabinets built around similar carcass depths. Side mount drawer slide fit pairs with cabinet constructions that allow for 1/2 inch plus 0.1 inch minus 0 inch clearance on each side, guiding overall drawer box width in new builds or retrofits. The 2 inch slide height means it suits drawer sides tall enough to accept that profile, which is useful in full-height storage drawers or utility pullouts. A 1 inch overtravel feature lets the drawer clear the face frame or front edge slightly more than full extension, which aids access to stored tools, parts, or supplies near the back. The soft-close function engages near the end of travel, which moderates closing speed in frequently used drawers in shops or residential spaces.
The zinc finish ball bearing drawer slide offers a consistent surface and neutral color, which keeps slides visually unobtrusive in typical cabinet interiors. The 32 mm pattern noted on this model ties the mounting holes to a 32 mm system layout, which aligns with drilling patterns used by many cabinet shops for repeatable hardware placement. KV Model #8655FM identifies the product family, which helps match replacement slides or expand a project using the same performance characteristics. The manufacturer part number 8655FMB 20 designates this exact 20 inch version, which distinguishes it from other lengths in the same series during ordering or restocking. A butterfly disconnect lever creates a controlled separation point between slide members, which allows drawers to be removed for finishing, transport, or service without disturbing the cabinet member. The drawer slides and ball bearing action support a smooth open-and-close feel, which can help reduce resistance when drawers are loaded within the 140 lb rating.
The 8655FMB 20 is a Knape and Vogt 20 inch side mount soft-close ball bearing drawer slide, which supports controlled closing and smooth extension in cabinet drawer applications.
The 20 inch 140lb soft close over travel slide is rated at 140 lb, which supports heavier drawer contents in storage, shop, or utility drawers built to that capacity.
The slides use a side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 0.1 inch minus 0 inch on each side, which defines the drawer width relative to the cabinet opening for smooth travel.
The recommended fasteners are #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips pan head screws, which match the slide mounting holes and support secure attachment to typical drawer and cabinet materials.
The overtravel of 1 inch lets the drawer extend slightly beyond full extension, which improves access to the back of the drawer in deeper cabinet installations.
The butterfly disconnect lever allows separation of the drawer and cabinet members, which simplifies removing the drawer for finishing, adjustments, or service.
The 8655 Series soft close ball bearing slides in the 8655FMB 20 size combine a 20 inch length, 140 lb rating, soft-close action, and 1 inch overtravel for cabinet drawers built around these dimensions. Side mount installation with a 1/2 inch plus 0.1 inch minus 0 inch side clearance on each side supports common cabinet designs that rely on precise drawer sizing. The zinc finish and 2 inch height create a consistent profile for use across multiple cabinets in the same project. When a project calls for Knape and Vogt 20 inch over travel soft close drawer slides with a defined 32 mm pattern and butterfly disconnect lever, this model offers those specifics for repeatable layout and performance.
