This is a 12 inch over-travel side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from Fulterer's FR 5000 OT series, rated 100 lb per pair in a bright zinc finish. It carries the drawer member past full extension so the entire drawer clears countertop overhangs and deep face frames, in the standard side-mount format cabinet shops and contractors already know.
A standard full-extension slide brings a drawer to the cabinet face and stops. An over-travel slide keeps going, moving the drawer box past the face by the additional travel distance. That matters most under kitchen countertop overhangs, behind deep face frames, and in situations where the cabinet face sits back from the work surface. In a 12 inch depth — typical for wall cabinets, upper spice drawers, shallow base-cabinet inserts, and narrow utility cabinets — those last inches of travel mean the difference between digging at the back of the drawer and having it all within reach. The FR 5000 OT is also a natural fit for workshop benches and shop carts where a shallow drawer sits under an overhanging work surface.
The slide is cold-formed steel with a zinc electroplate finish. Zinc is the working standard for side-mount ball bearing slides: it protects the steel members through years of indoor service without adding bulk. The finish is functional rather than decorative — the slide sits beside the open drawer box and is not the visual focus of the installation. For applications where the hardware should disappear, zinc pairs cleanly with white melamine and natural wood interiors alike. This slide is for indoor, dry environments; zinc plating is not a substitute for stainless steel in wet or corrosive locations.
Choose this 12 inch FR 5000 OT when you need over-travel performance at the standard 100 lb duty class. It suits cabinet shops specifying wall cabinets, narrow utility drawers, and any shallow drawer that sits behind an overhang. The non-handed format simplifies ordering for production runs: one part number covers both sides of every drawer. The standard-motion mechanism — no closing feature built in — also makes it a clean platform for pairing with a separate push-to-open mechanism on handle-less fronts, since there is no spring or damper to work against. Each pair requires 1/2 inch of side clearance per slide, so the drawer box is built 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening.
Past the slide's nominal 12 inch length — over-travel carries the drawer member beyond full extension. The FR 5000 OT series is built specifically for this; the exact over-travel distance is not stated in the product data for this length, so confirm with Fulterer's published specs if the precise measurement matters for your installation.
It is the closed length of the slide. Travel is a separate spec, and on an over-travel model the drawer moves farther than the nominal length of the slide.
No. This is a standard-motion slide — no damper, no spring, no detent. The drawer stays wherever you leave it. If you want damped closing, look at the Fulterer FR 5001 soft-close models in the same family.
No. The slide is non-handed, so both pieces in the pair are the same part. Order by drawer count, not by side.
It can, but side-mount slides in face-frame cabinets need support at the rear of the slide — rear mounting brackets are required and are sold separately. Brackets are series-specific, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
When a standard full-extension slide leaves the back of a shallow drawer out of reach, the Fulterer FR 5000 OT in zinc solves the problem without changing mount position, duty class, or clearance requirements — slide it in where a plain BB slide would go and get over-travel access in return.
