Knape and Vogt 18 inch drawer slides deliver full extension movement, so the drawer travels its complete length and exposes stored items for straightforward access during regular cabinet use. These 8400 Series ball bearing slides use ball bearings to guide the motion, which provides a smooth travel path that supports consistent opening and closing in repeated cycles. The hold-in anti-rebound design works with the ball bearing mechanism to keep the drawer in position at the closed end of travel, which helps the drawer stay shut when the cabinet is moved or when fronts are tapped in normal operation. Their anochrome finish covers the slide members with a uniform metallic coating, which presents a neutral appearance that suits many cabinet interiors while also offering a treated surface for the moving parts. This model is unhanded, so the same slide design works on either side of the drawer, simplifying layout and part selection.
This side mount drawer slide uses 1/2 inch plus 1/32 minus 0 inch side clearance on each side, which directly drives how wide the drawer box is built in relation to the cabinet opening so the members run freely on their ball bearings. The 1-13/16 inch slide height defines the space the hardware occupies along the drawer side, which informs how close drawers can be stacked vertically while still leaving room for movement. The recommended #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips truss head fasteners relate to the slide hole pattern, which helps each mounting point seat correctly against wood or panel materials for stable operation. Because this model is a side mount design, it positions along the drawer sides, which suits many face frame and frameless cabinet constructions that are laid out for side-mounted hardware.
The KV 8400 18 inch side mount slide functions as a full extension ball bearing slide, which allows the drawer to move out to its full nominal length so contents near the back are accessible without reaching into the cabinet. Its hold-in anti-rebound behavior works at the closed position, which keeps the drawer from drifting back out once pushed closed during everyday operation in kitchens, offices, or utility cabinets. The anochrome finish across the members provides a consistent metallic look, which suits situations where the slide is partially visible inside the cabinet while still presenting a uniform hardware appearance. With a 32 mm pattern noted in the description, this slide works well in casework that follows 32 mm system drilling, which helps align mounting screws to established rows of holes in panel construction.
The specified side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 minus 0 inch each side gives a clear target for drawer box width, which helps fabricators cut parts so the ball bearing action operates consistently from cabinet to cabinet. The lever disconnect feature allows the drawer member to release from the cabinet member with the lever, which simplifies fitting and adjusting drawer fronts without working inside the cabinet carcass. The ball retainer latch described in the features maintains the position of the ball bearings, which supports smooth motion over time as the drawer is opened and closed through many cycles. The non-handed designation means each slide works on either side, which streamlines replacement or new installations by using the same part number for both left and right positions in a bank of drawers. The recommended #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips truss head fasteners are aligned with the mounting design, which focuses the installer on a fastener length and head profile that suits the slide holes and typical cabinet materials.
The KV 8400B 18 is a full extension, side mount, ball bearing drawer slide, which allows the drawer to travel its full length on ball bearings for smooth access to stored items.
This drawer slide uses 1/2 inch plus 1/32 minus 0 inch side clearance on each side, which determines the drawer box width needed so the ball bearing members run without binding.
The lever disconnect on the 8400B 18 allows the drawer member to release from the cabinet member, which helps during installation, finishing, and later adjustments by letting drawers be removed and reattached.
The hold in anti rebound feature helps the drawer stay fully closed at the end of travel, which reduces the chance of the drawer drifting open during regular cabinet use.
This Knape and Vogt slide is specified for #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips truss head fasteners, which match the mounting holes and seat the slide against typical cabinet and drawer materials.
The anochrome finish gives the slide members a consistent metallic appearance, which suits many cabinet interiors while presenting a uniform treated surface on the moving hardware.
The 8400B 18 full extension drawer slides from Knape and Vogt pair an 18 inch length with ball bearing action, which supports smooth, full-travel drawers sized to the specified side clearance. With a side mount layout, 1-13/16 inch height, and non-handed design, this slide fits a wide range of cabinet casework where both sides of the drawer can carry hardware. The lever disconnect, hold-in anti-rebound function, 32 mm pattern reference, and recommended #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips truss head fasteners all work together to support efficient cabinet construction and consistent drawer performance.
