This is a left-hand plastic rear mounting socket designed to support the back end of a Euro slide in a face-frame cabinet installation, sold in a box of 100.
In a face-frame cabinet, the cabinet side is set back from the front frame, which means a Euro slide mounted to the cabinet side needs a rear anchor to keep its back end from flexing or dropping out of position. This socket provides that anchor at the rear of the cabinet. Without it, the slide's back end can shift under load, causing the drawer to rack or bind. The socket is the part that makes a standard Euro slide work cleanly in face-frame construction — it is not optional in that application.
The socket body is molded plastic, which keeps weight low and allows consistent dimensions across a full box of 100 pieces. Plastic rear sockets are the standard in production cabinetry because they install quickly, hold position reliably under the modest side loads a Euro roller slide generates, and do not corrode or discolor in the cabinet interior. Screw-on mounting means no special tooling beyond a driver.
Cabinet shops running Euro slides in face-frame work go through rear sockets in volume — one per drawer position per side, so a 25-drawer job consumes 25 left-hand and 25 right-hand sockets. The 100-count box suits exactly that pattern: a shop-quantity purchase that covers a production run without counting out individual pieces. Designers and contractors specifying Euro slides into traditional face-frame cabinetry should call out rear sockets at the hardware planning stage, before the boxes are assembled, since the rear support position needs to be accessible for screw placement.
No. This box contains 100 left-hand sockets. You need the matching right-hand socket for the other side of each drawer position — order both to have a complete set for your run.
This socket is designed for the KV1296 Euro slide series. Rear sockets are series-specific in their mounting geometry; do not assume it fits slides from other manufacturers or other KV series without verifying the rear-support dimensions match.
Generally no. In a frameless cabinet the slide screws directly to the flat interior side panel, so the back end of the slide has full-length support without a separate socket. Rear sockets are the solution for face-frame construction, where the cabinet side is recessed behind the front frame.
Count one left-hand socket per drawer position. A cabinet with 15 drawers needs 15 left-hand sockets and 15 right-hand sockets. One box of 100 left-hand sockets covers up to 100 drawer positions on the left side.
Stocking rear mounting sockets alongside your Euro slides means face-frame installs go in cleanly from the first drawer to the last, with no mid-run scramble for a part that should have been on the shelf all along.
