KV8407 22" Full Extension Hold-in anti-rebound Ball Bearing Drawer Slides, Unhanded Side Mount Zinc Bulk-Pack - 8407B 22

Knape and Vogt Ball Bearing Drawer Slides Built for the Production Shop

The Knape and Vogt 8407 series is a 22 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide rated 100 lb per pair, finished in zinc, and sold in bulk pack for volume shop use. It belongs to KV's core side-mount ball bearing program, designed for kitchen, office, and utility drawers where smooth travel and honest load capacity are the baseline requirements.

Key Features

• Full extension brings the entire drawer out to the cabinet face, so nothing stays hidden at the back.
• Hold-in anti-rebound detent keeps the closed drawer in place and stops it from bouncing back open after a firm push.
• 100 lb rating per pair covers a loaded kitchen, utility, or shop drawer with room to spare.
• Ball bearings in full-length raceways deliver consistent, smooth travel across the full 22 inch length.
• Non-handed design means both slides in a pair are identical, cutting sorting time on the bench.
• Bulk-pack format stocks the shop efficiently for multi-drawer cabinet runs.

Where the 8407 Series Fits the Work

A 22 inch slide length suits cabinet boxes with an interior depth in the same range — measure the cabinet's interior depth first and confirm clearance behind the back of the drawer. Full extension means the drawer member travels the full slide length, so the drawer clears the cabinet opening completely and the rear contents are reachable. The hold-in anti-rebound detent adds a practical advantage in shop and utility cabinets: the drawer stays shut when closed firmly instead of drifting or rebounding, without adding the complexity of a self-close spring. This is a standard-motion detent only — no damping, no spring assist, just a mechanical catch that holds the drawer closed until pulled.

Zinc Finish on Steel

The slide members are cold-formed steel with a zinc finish — the working standard for side-mount ball bearing slides in this segment. Zinc plating provides indoor corrosion resistance through years of regular use and keeps the slide functional inside a cabinet where it sits beside the drawer box, mostly out of sight. This is not a decorative or stainless finish. For shop environments, painted surfaces, or high-cycle production installations, zinc holds up well under the conditions these slides are designed for.

The Right Buyer for This Slide

Cabinet shops running multi-drawer projects get the most from the bulk-pack format — volume counts mean fewer trips to the bin and consistent pairing across a run. The 1/2 inch side clearance per side is the standard for this segment, so the drawer box is built 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening. In frameless cabinets, the slides mount directly to the side panel on the industry-standard 32mm hole pattern. In face-frame cabinets, rear mounting brackets are required to support the back end of the slide; brackets are sold separately and are series-specific. The non-handed design is a straightforward advantage for production work: pick two, install left and right, done.
