This is a 12 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from Fulterer, rated 100 lb per pair, with a hold-in anti-rebound detent and a zinc finish on steel. At 12 inches, it is the right length for shallow kitchen drawers, compact base cabinets, utility carts, and shop storage — anywhere the interior depth calls for a shorter slide without giving up full extension or load capacity.
A 12 inch slide is the right call when cabinet depth is limited or when the drawer is genuinely short. Spice drawers, silverware trays, and small utility pulls in compact base cabinets all land in this range. In shop and garage cabinets, a 12 inch slide handles small-parts storage, drill bit trays, and tool chest inserts. The hold-in detent adds real value in these settings: a loaded shop drawer pushed shut stays shut instead of creeping back open, and a kitchen spice drawer does not drift out on its own.
Because this is a full-extension slide, the back of a 12 inch drawer comes all the way out — the rear contents are visible and reachable, not hidden behind the cabinet face.
The slide members are cold-formed steel, and the zinc finish provides standard indoor corrosion resistance — the same workhorse finish across the side-mount ball bearing segment. Zinc is not a decorative or stainless finish; it is a functional protective coating that holds up through years of daily use in dry indoor environments. Ball bearings run in full-length steel raceways, keeping travel smooth and consistent whether the drawer is lightly loaded or carrying close to the rated capacity.
Shops running production cabinets with short drawers can move through 12 inch slides quickly, and the non-handed design keeps the process simple: pull from one bin, install on either side. Designers specifying shallow drawers in compact kitchens or built-ins get full extension at the standard 100 lb class without stepping into an oversized slide. The zinc finish blends into the cabinet interior and stays out of the way once the drawer is installed. Sold as a pair — one slide per side, two slides per drawer.
Slide length and drawer travel are separate specs. This is a full-extension slide, meaning the drawer member travels approximately the full slide length and the entire drawer clears the cabinet face — but 12 inches is the closed length of the slide, not a guaranteed travel distance. Match the slide length to your drawer depth for a proper fit.
It is a mechanical catch that keeps the drawer in the closed position and stops it from bouncing back open when pushed shut firmly. It does not pull the drawer closed on its own and it does not dampen the close — it simply holds the drawer where you leave it until you pull it open intentionally.
Side-mount slides in face-frame cabinets need rear support since the cabinet side is set back from the frame. Rear mounting brackets for this series are sold separately; confirm bracket compatibility with the Fulterer FR 5000 line before ordering.
Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to leave 1/2 inch of side clearance for each slide. The specific maximum drawer width for this series is not stated in the available data; contact the product team if you are sizing a wider-than-typical drawer on a 12 inch slide.
No. The slide is non-handed, so both pieces in the pair are identical and fit either side of the drawer without modification.
A compact drawer built on full-extension ball bearing slides at the right load class operates cleanly from day one and keeps working that way — and the hold-in detent means the drawer stays put when you close it, whether the cabinet is in a kitchen, a shop, or a built-in across the room.
