This is a rectangular, 3/8 inch thick nylon drawer slide spacer from Bainbridge Manufacturing, designed to fill the gap between a cabinet side and a slide when the mounting surface falls short of flush. At 3/8 inch, it handles one of the most common offset depths in face-frame and retrofit installations, and the almond finish integrates cleanly into almond-toned cabinet interiors without drawing the eye.
Drawer slides mount flat when the cabinet side is plumb, square, and at the right depth. In the real world, face-frame construction sets the cabinet side back from the opening, retrofit work introduces uneven surfaces, and out-of-plumb walls push slides off their intended plane. A 3/8 inch spacer bridges that gap precisely, so the slide rides true and the drawer opens and closes without binding or racking. The rectangular shape distributes the slide's fastening load evenly, which matters on softer substrates like particleboard where a small round foot can dig in under repeated use.
Nylon polyamide is the right material for a load-bearing spacer: it is rigid enough to hold its stated thickness under screw tension, resistant to the humidity swings common in kitchen and bath cabinets, and dimensionally stable so the 3/8 inch thickness stays 3/8 inch after years in service. The almond color runs through the material rather than applied as a surface coat, so there is nothing to chip or scuff if the spacer is handled during installation. In almond cabinet interiors, it disappears into the background the way a well-chosen finish should.
Cabinet shops running almond-finished production work keep these on hand to handle the face-frame offset without switching to a different slide length or shimming with scrap. Installers doing kitchen refreshes often encounter existing face-frame boxes where the slide needs to sit proud of the cabinet side by exactly this amount. Designers specifying almond hardware packages will find the color match closes out a detail that might otherwise show an off-color piece of hardware through an open drawer. At 3/8 inch, this spacer hits a thickness that comes up often enough in production work to justify stocking it as a standard item.
Nylon polyamide is inherently resistant to discoloration from heat and humidity at the temperatures found in a residential cabinet. The almond tone is consistent through the material, not a surface treatment, so it does not yellow, chip, or fade the way painted finishes can.
This is a general-purpose drawer slide spacer for screw-on side-mount slides. It is not engineered for a specific slide brand or series. Confirm that your slide's mounting hole pattern lines up with the spacer's dimensions before ordering in quantity.
Stacking spacers is not recommended. A stacked assembly can shift under load or vibration. If you need 3/4 inch of offset, use a single spacer designed for that thickness.
No. Undermount slides mount beneath the drawer box and use system-specific locking devices and brackets. This rectangular screw-on spacer is intended for side-mount slide applications.
A slide that sits flat and true runs smoothly for years; one that is off by even a fraction binds, wears unevenly, and frustrates end users. Stocking the 3/8 inch almond spacer alongside your slide inventory means that offset is solved before it becomes a callback.
