This is a 12 inch side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from Fulterer, rated 198 lb per pair, with 1 inch of over-travel past full extension and a hold-in anti-rebound detent that keeps the drawer closed once shut. The zinc finish delivers dependable indoor corrosion resistance on a steel slide built to handle real loads.
Twelve inches is a short slide length, but the over-travel spec changes how that length performs. In a shop cabinet under a workbench overhang, or in a utility base cabinet behind a thick face frame, an ordinary full-extension slide stops at the cabinet face and leaves the back of a shallow drawer partially obscured. The 1 inch over-travel on this slide pushes the drawer member past the nominal length, so the entire drawer clears the obstruction. That matters most when the drawer carries small parts, fasteners, or tools where digging for the back row wastes time on every pull. The hold-in anti-rebound detent complements that use case: push the drawer shut firmly after grabbing what you need and the detent catches it, keeping it closed without a soft-close mechanism or a spring.
The slide is formed from steel with a zinc electroplate finish. Zinc is the working standard for side-mount ball bearing slides in indoor applications — it protects the steel members through years of shop or cabinet service without adding decorative bulk. This is a visible finish when the drawer is open, but it is a functional one: the zinc tone blends cleanly with unpainted cabinet interiors and shop casework. For drawers where the slide is hidden behind a panel or a finished front, the zinc finish is simply the right corrosion protection for the environment.
The combination of a 198 lb rating, over-travel extension, and hold-in anti-rebound places this slide in a specific use range. It is the right choice for shop drawers, tool storage, heavy utility cabinets, and any base cabinet where the drawer carries substantial weight and sits under an overhang. At 12 inches, it fits compact drawers in benches, base cabinets, and storage units where a longer slide would not clear the cabinet depth. Contractors and cabinet shops fitting out workspaces where durability and load capacity outrank a concealed appearance will find the zinc finish and steel construction straightforward and appropriate. This is a standard-motion slide without soft-close — the hold-in detent is its only closing feature, and the drawer travels freely until that detent catches it at the closed position.
No. Twelve inches is the closed length of the slide. Because this is an over-travel model, the drawer member travels the full 12 inches plus 1 additional inch past that, for a total travel beyond what a plain full-extension 12 inch slide provides.
It catches the drawer at the closed position and holds it there, preventing the drawer from bouncing back open when pushed shut firmly. It does not pull the drawer closed on its own and it does not slow the closing motion — those are self-close and soft-close features, which this slide does not have.
No. The slide is non-handed, so both pieces in a pair are identical and fit either side of the drawer without modification.
The slide requires 1/2 inch of side clearance per side. Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to leave the correct gap for each slide.
It can, but face-frame construction sets the cabinet side back from the front frame, so the rear of the slide needs support. Use the appropriate rear mounting brackets for this installation type; brackets are sold separately and are series-specific.
When the drawer is short, the load is heavy, and the cabinet sits under an overhang, this Fulterer 12 inch over-travel slide in zinc covers all three demands in one non-handed, 198 lb rated package.
