Hettich 14" Over Travel Standard Ball Bearing Drawer Slides KA 4620 Series, Unhanded Side Mount Zinc - 9019955

Hettich 14 Inch Over Travel Drawer Slides For Smooth Access

Hettich 14 inch over travel drawer slides are side mount, ball bearing runners that move drawers smoothly and freely while supporting everyday use. The KA 4620 Series design uses precision control and high lateral stability so drawers track straight under load and feel solid in operation. With an over extension runner and pull-out stop, the slide allows the drawer to travel beyond the cabinet front while preventing accidental pull-out, which helps when accessing contents at the back of the drawer. Roll-out prevention keeps the drawer secure at full extension, and an unhanded, zinc finished, galvanised steel construction suits standard side mounting on either side of the cabinet. For installers working with grooved, rebated or flush fitted drawer bottom panels, this slide adapts to those drawer box designs while maintaining guided movement. The 350mm length aligns with typical 14 inch cabinet depths for straightforward layout.

Key Slide Details That Support Reliable Drawer Action

• The 58mm height and 19mm width profile give a defined side mount footprint, which helps plan cabinet clearances so drawers move without side rubbing.
• The 350mm (14 inch) over extension runner lets the drawer travel past the front of the cabinet, making the rear of the drawer easier to reach during daily use.
• The pull-out stop and roll-out prevention features hold the drawer at full extension, which reduces unintended drawer removal during routine opening.
• The release catch separates the drawer from the cabinet body quickly, which speeds up installation, adjustment, and future drawer removal when working on the cabinet.
• Precision control for moving smoothly and freely with high lateral stability helps the drawer feel consistent across its travel, which matters when aligning fronts and gaps.
• The galvanised steel, blue passivated finish provides a robust metal runner surface, which supports regular sliding contact over the working life of the drawer.
• The load capacity to EN 15338, Level 1 sets a defined performance level, which helps match the slide to drawers built for light domestic storage loads.

Side Mount Drawer Slide Fit And Installation Considerations

This KA 4620 Series side mount drawer slide is designed for mounting on the cabinet side, using its 58mm by 19mm profile to set lateral clearances between the drawer and casework. The 350mm length suits drawer boxes built for a 14 inch nominal cabinet depth, which simplifies sizing when laying out runners on standard carcasses. Because it works with grooved, rebated or flush fitted drawer bottom panels, the slide supports several drawer construction approaches while keeping the drawer bottom integrated with the sides. The unhanded configuration allows the same runner to be fitted to either left or right side, which keeps installation steps consistent from one side of the cabinet to the other.

How This Hettich KA 4620 Slide Performs In Cabinets

Where The Over Travel Ball Bearing Slide Fits Best

The KA 4620 over travel standard ball bearing drawer slide fits side-mounted applications where installers want smooth running with defined extension control. Its 350mm length works in cabinets designed around a 14 inch runner, aligning with many kitchen, bath, or shop drawer depths that match this dimension. Because the slide is specified for drawers with grooved, rebated or flush fitted drawer bottom panels, it fits into drawer boxes where the bottom is captured or aligned to the sides rather than set on separate runners. The 58mm height and 19mm width dimensions give a clear side space requirement, which helps when planning carcass openings so the drawer can use the full over extension travel without binding. With an unhanded side mount layout, the same part number 9019955 runner can be used on both sides of the drawer, simplifying layout for runs of identical cabinets.

Why The KA4620 Details Matter For Consistent Results

The precision control described for the KA 4620 Series translates into drawers that move smoothly and freely, which supports tight reveals and consistent alignment between drawer fronts because the slide does not grab or hesitate through its travel. High lateral stability keeps the drawer from twisting side-to-side, which is important when fronts span across gaps or when drawers carry contents spread across the width. The over extension runner with pull-out stop allows the drawer to travel out beyond the cabinet front while positively stopping at its design limit, which helps maintain repeatable projection and protects the drawer from being pulled out unintentionally. Roll-out prevention backs this up by resisting accidental removal at full extension, useful in everyday use where drawers may be opened quickly. The galvanised steel, blue passivated construction provides a rigid running structure and treated surface, supporting the ball bearing action as the slide cycles. Load capacity to EN 15338, Level 1 gives a defined standard-based performance level for lighter domestic storage duties, which helps align project expectations with how the slide is engineered to be used.
