This Fulterer 16 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide in Black is a 100 lb rated pair with a hold-in anti-rebound detent, designed for kitchen, office, shop, and utility drawers where a black interior finish is the right match for the build.
The black finish earns its place in any cabinet where hardware visibility matters. Dark-stained interiors, matte black painted cases, and modern frameless builds with black melamine panels are the natural fit — the slide disappears against the box instead of flashing zinc beside an open drawer. It also works well in shop furniture and workbench drawers where the builder wants a clean, intentional look rather than the utilitarian zinc default.
The hold-in anti-rebound detent is well suited to drawers that get pushed shut rather than guided closed — shop benches, utility cabinets, and high-traffic kitchen drawers where a loaded box can bounce back open on a firm close. The detent holds it in place until the drawer is intentionally pulled.
The slide is formed from cold-rolled steel with ball bearings running in full-length raceways between the cabinet member, intermediate member, and drawer member. The black finish is applied over the steel for an indoor-use corrosion-resistant surface. This is a functional, matte-black coating — it is not stainless, and this slide is intended for dry indoor applications.
Side-mount ball bearing slides in this segment run on 1/2 inch of side clearance per side, so the drawer box is built 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening. The 16 inch slide length suits drawer boxes in the 15 to 16 inch depth range — measure the interior cabinet depth first to confirm the fit. In face-frame cabinets, rear mounting brackets are required to support the back end of the slide; those brackets are series-specific and sold separately. In frameless cabinets, the slide mounts directly to the side panel on the 32mm system hole pattern.
No. The hold-in anti-rebound detent is a mechanical catch that keeps the drawer closed and stops it from bouncing back open — there is no damper and no spring assist. The drawer stays wherever you leave it and releases with a normal pull. Soft-close is a separate, damped mechanism that slows the drawer to a controlled close; this slide does not have one.
No. The mounting dimensions, 1/2 inch side clearance, 100 lb load rating, and full extension travel are identical to the zinc version of this slide. The finish is a color choice, not a structural one.
No. The slide is non-handed — both pieces in the pair are identical and fit either side of the drawer. Order one pair per drawer.
Face-frame cabinets need rear mounting brackets to support the back of the slide, since the cabinet side is set back from the frame. The brackets are sold separately and are series-specific — confirm compatibility with Fulterer's rear bracket options for this series before ordering.
No. The 16 inch measurement is the closed slide length. Because this is a full-extension slide, the drawer member travels approximately the full slide length, bringing the whole drawer out to the cabinet face. Slide length and drawer travel are matched but separate facts.
When the interior of the cabinet is dark or the build calls for consistent black hardware throughout, reaching for a zinc slide is the compromise that shows. This 16 inch black slide delivers the same full extension, 100 lb capacity, and hold-in detent as the zinc equivalent — with a finish that holds its place in the design.
