Knape and Vogt 8500 drawer slides in this listing are 20 inch right hand cabinet members from the 8500 Series, so they serve as the fixed side-mount track on the cabinet for matching file drawer members. The web description identifies them as side mount drawer slides with ball bearing construction, which supports smooth extension under the drawer load when paired with the proper 8500 Series drawer members. The 20 inch length establishes how far the file drawer travels, which is important when sizing cases or planning clearances in cabinets. The product is described as full extension, so the drawer can travel out its full slide length, helping expose file contents for easier access. The brand is Knape and Vogt, and the description states KV Model #8500, made in USA, which signals a specific, consistent slide platform for repeatable setups across multiple cabinets and projects.
The web description identifies these slides as full extension, which lets the drawer travel the full 20 inch slide length, exposing the file box for easier access in deeper cabinets. Features listed include factory-attached drawer release clips with quick disconnect drawer members, so once the matching members are in place the drawer can be removed or reinstalled by operating the release clips rather than unfastening the cabinet members. The description also notes a hold-in feature to prevent bounce back, meaning the mechanism helps keep the drawer closed against light forces, which can matter in file cabinets that see repeated use during the day. Positive in and out stops are specified, so the travel limits are defined by the slide, helping protect both the drawer and the case from over-travel impacts.
The SAP description states 20' RH CABT MEMBER, FULL EXT, identifying this part specifically as the right hand cabinet member within the full extension 8500 system, so it mounts on the right interior wall of the cabinet and mates with a compatible drawer member. The web description references Q-Pack: 10 left hand cabinet members per box; 10 right hand cabinet members per box; 20 QD strips (mounting rails) per box, without screws, each sold separately, showing that left and right cabinet members are supplied as distinct components in the 8500 family. Because this listing is for the right hand cabinet member, it fits into that split configuration, which matters when planning quantities for multi-drawer runs where each opening needs both a right and left cabinet member plus drawer members. The classification as side mount drawer slides places the cabinet member in the category of hardware mounted to the case sides rather than under the drawer.
The web description states that the retainer holds 3 bearings per inch of race for smooth and quiet motion, so each inch of the ball bearing track is densely supported by bearings, helping the file drawer travel more evenly under load when paired with the correct drawer member. The same description calls out hold-in feature to prevent bounce back, which works with the positive in/out stops to keep the drawer stable at both ends of travel, limiting unintended movement that can occur when drawers are slammed. Factory-attached drawer release clips with quick disconnect drawer members are also specified, so the quick disconnect function is integrated into the slide design, simplifying drawer removal for adjustments or case work once the cabinet members such as this right hand piece are mounted. The available finish being Anochrome ties the member to a corrosion-resistant surface treatment noted in the description, which helps maintain slide performance in typical cabinet environments.
This Knape and Vogt item is a side mount ball bearing drawer slide component, identified as a 20 inch right hand cabinet member from the 8500 Series for use on the cabinet side.
This 8500 Series member is described as full extension, so when used with the proper drawer member the drawer can travel approximately the full 20 inch slide length for better access.
The web description lists side clearance as 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch on each side, which informs the case and drawer width spacing when using the 8500 system.
The recommended fasteners are #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips pan head (BST1/2X7-2C), which match the mounting holes noted in the description for securing the cabinet member.
The available finish listed is Anochrome, with Ebony Black identified as special order, so this part uses the standard Anochrome finish for the 8500 line.
The description notes a 32 mm pattern, meaning the slide holes follow the 32 mm system layout, which aligns with cabinet sides drilled on that system.
This Knape and Vogt 20 inch right hand cabinet member from the 8500 Series combines full extension, ball bearing construction, and a 32 mm pattern, giving installers a defined platform for side-mount file drawers where consistent clearances and smooth travel are required. The specified Anochrome finish, made in USA origin, and detailed side clearance and height figures in the web description support planning of case dimensions and hardware layout before drilling or mounting, helping projects use the 8500 system efficiently.
