Knape and Vogt 8400 drawer slides use full extension travel so the 16 inch drawer length pulls completely forward, which opens up the full drawer box for clear access when loading, organizing, or checking stored items in cabinets or casework. The side mount configuration with ball bearing construction supports a familiar installation layout while giving drawers a smooth, consistent feel under load in everyday shop or residential use. A hold-in anti-rebound feature keeps the slide engaged in the closed position, which helps drawers stay shut when fronts are flush with a face frame or when cabinets are moved. The slides are unhanded, so one model works on either side of the drawer opening, simplifying layout and reducing part variation during production work or field installs.
KV Model #8400 in the 16 inch length calls for side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch on each side, which sets a clear machining target for drawer box width when fitting into a cabinet opening. The slide height of 1-13/16 inch guides where to locate the slide on the drawer side and cabinet member, helping the installer keep the hardware away from bottom cleats or internal obstacles while supporting the drawer body securely. The 32 mm pattern on the slide aligns with system-bored cabinet construction, tying the hardware into existing line-bore holes where that drilling pattern is used. Together, these dimensional details support predictable fit, consistent reveals, and repeatable drawer action across a run of cabinets.
The 8400P 16 side mount drawer slide sits in the Side Mount Drawer Slides product class, so it aligns with cabinet designs that expect lateral mounting on drawer sides and cabinet walls rather than under-mount hardware. The specified 1/2 inch plus or minus 1/32 inch side clearance each side fits common face-frame and frameless cabinet layouts that are machined for standard sidebar clearance, which supports use in kitchens, baths, offices, and shop storage. With a slide height of 1-13/16 inch, the hardware occupies a modest vertical band on the drawer side, leaving room above or below for structural rails or applied runners inside the cabinet. The 32 mm pattern on the slide ties into system construction that uses metric line-boring, allowing the slide to locate from existing holes in commercial or modular cabinetry.
The lever disconnect feature on the 8400 Series slide allows the drawer member to separate from the cabinet member, which lets installers remove the drawer box for finishing, transport, or adjustment without unfastening the fixed slide segment. A ball retainer latch manages the bearing elements within the slide, which helps keep the ball bearings properly held during movement for consistent tracking. The recommended fasteners are #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips Truss Head (BST1/2X7-2C), so the slide is designed around that shank and head style to seat correctly in the mounting slots. The anochrome finish provides a stable surface on the steel, which supports a uniform feel when the bearings roll along the raceways. These matched components - lever disconnect, ball bearing system, and specified fasteners - work together so the slide can be mounted, removed, and reinstalled with predictable alignment and drawer action on repeated cycles.
The 8400P 16 is a Knape and Vogt side mount, ball bearing drawer slide with full extension travel, which supports smooth, accessible drawer action in many cabinet applications.
The KV Model #8400 in 16 inch length uses 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch side clearance on each side, guiding drawer box width for a proper running fit.
The 8400 Series slide has a height of 1-13/16 inch, which helps installers position the hardware vertically to clear cabinet rails or bottom panels.
The hold-in anti-rebound feature keeps the slide engaged at the closed position, which helps the drawer front stay seated against the cabinet face after closing.
The 8400 Series slide is designed for #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips Truss Head fasteners, which match the mounting holes for secure attachment to drawer and cabinet members.
The KV Model #8400 in 16 inch length uses an anochrome finish, which provides a consistent metal look suitable for exposed or semi-exposed slide locations.
The 16 inch full extension design, 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch side clearance, and 1-13/16 inch height give the 8400P 16 a defined footprint, which lets you match drawer box sizing and boring patterns to the slide during layout. The side mount, ball bearing configuration with hold-in anti-rebound and lever disconnect features supports smooth motion and straightforward drawer removal in everyday cabinet work. When a project calls for a Knape and Vogt 8400 Series slide in anochrome finish with these clearances, this model aligns the hardware details with the machining and assembly steps on the bench.
