Knape and Vogt 18 inch drawer slides in the 8400 series provide full extension, so the drawer can travel its full length for clear access to stored items along the entire slide stroke. These side mount, ball bearing slides use a hold-in anti-rebound design that keeps the drawer held in the closed position, helping the drawer stay shut after you push it closed. The slides use an ebony black finish, which blends well with dark cabinet interiors where a low-visibility slide is preferred. A 32 mm pattern is built into these slides, aligning with common system boring layouts that many cabinet shops use. The slides are non-handed, which means the same member works on either side, simplifying layout and reducing separate left and right part handling on the bench.
These slides are designed as side mount members, so they fasten to the cabinet sides and the drawer sides to create the running system. The recommended fasteners are #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips truss head screws, which match the slide hole sizing and head profile specified in the product data. That screw type supports solid engagement without oversize heads interfering with slide travel. The 32 mm pattern on the slide gives a repeatable hole layout along its length, aligning with system line boring used in many shop setups for faster positioning. With 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch side clearance on each side, the drawer box width can be sized relative to the cabinet opening for a controlled fit that matches the slide design.
The KV Model #8400 18 inch length side mount slides fit cabinet situations that match their 18 inch nominal travel, such as many base cabinets built around that depth. Their side mount configuration suits face frame or frameless cabinets where side panel attachment is preferred. The ebony black finish helps the slide visually recede inside darker interiors, which is useful in furniture-style casework or dark-stained installations. Because the slides are non-handed, they can be used on either the left or right side without separating inventory, reducing the number of distinct slide parts to pull for a job. The hold-in anti-rebound function helps keep drawers closed once pushed shut, which is valuable in cabinets that see regular opening and closing throughout the day.
The defined side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch on each side directly informs drawer sizing, supporting consistent running clearances from one cabinet to the next. A slide height of 1-13/16 inch provides a fixed vertical dimension, which helps when stacking several drawers because each slide occupies the same predictable space. The 32 mm pattern ties into standard system boring, so hole drilling can follow a known grid and speed up slide placement while keeping alignment consistent. The full extension design lets the drawer extend to its full 18 inch length, which is important when the back of the drawer needs to be reachable without shifting contents. The lever disconnect allows the drawer member to be released from the cabinet member, so drawers can be removed for finishing, modifications, or transport while the cabinet members remain mounted. The ball retainer latch helps keep the ball bearings correctly positioned, supporting a stable slide feel across repeated openings and closings.
