Knape and Vogt 24 inch file drawer slide is the left hand cabinet member from the KV 8500 series, so it gives you a dedicated part for building or servicing side mount file drawers that match this system. The slide is described as full extension, which lets the drawer travel out to expose the full file drawer length, helping access folders or contents without reaching into the cabinet. This model is specified as a side mount drawer slide, so it runs along the side of the drawer box, matching common file cabinet construction in shops and offices. The product is identified as the left hand cabinet member, which allows you to pair it with the corresponding right hand member when setting up a complete drawer. The slide is part of the Knape and Vogt 8500 series, tying it into a known family when you are matching existing installations by series number.
The slide is categorized as a side mount, ball bearing slide, so installation follows standard side mounting along cabinet sides and drawer sides, supporting smooth travel on ball bearings once aligned. The side clearance requirement of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch per side directly informs how you size the drawer box relative to the cabinet opening, giving you a numerical target for repeatable fits across multiple drawers. The specified height of 3-51/64 inches, including the quick disconnect rail, lets you position the slide vertically without impinging on adjacent drawers or structural rails. The recommended #7 x 1/2 inch Phillips pan head fasteners match the design of the slide, so the heads seat properly in the holes while working within common cabinet material thicknesses. The 32 mm pattern reference means hole locations align with metric line boring, reducing layout steps when working in frameless or system-based carcass construction.
The product description identifies this piece as a 24 inch left hand cabinet member from the KV 8500 series, so it is used on the left interior side of a cabinet when building or servicing a 24 inch deep drawer. Being part of a side mount, ball bearing slide system puts it into typical file drawer applications where lateral stability and smooth action are required under load. The full extension description means it is suited to file drawers where full access to the interior is needed, such as office files or project storage in shop cabinets. The stated side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch per side positions it well in cabinets designed around that clearance standard, supporting consistent fit when building banks of matching drawers. The Anochrome finish is a defined finish option that lets you keep a uniform look across cabinets where the slides can be seen when drawers are open. The web description also notes KV 8500 made in USA, which links this member to installations already using the 8500 series, simplifying replacements or system expansions.
The web description calls out hold-in feature to prevent bounce back, so when the drawer is closed, the slide resists minor rebound, helping the drawer stay shut under normal conditions. It also specifies positive in/out stops, giving defined travel limits that protect against over-travel in either direction, which is useful in file drawers handled frequently during the day. The retainer is described as holding 3 bearings per inch of race for smooth and quiet motion, indicating a dense bearing arrangement that supports steady travel along the slide as the drawer moves. Factory-attached drawer release clips with quick disconnect drawer members are listed, so the system is designed for tool-less drawer removal at the slide interface, which speeds up installation, adjustments, and service tasks. The 32 mm pattern reference ties into metric system hole spacing, helping maintain alignment when you move drawers between cabinets built around the same pattern. Together, these details create a slide member suited to repetitive file drawer use, where motion quality, clear stops, and straightforward removal support efficient daily operation and maintenance.

The KV 8500 series description states side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch each side, setting the required gap between drawer and cabinet side.

The identification as Knape and Vogt KV model 8500, 24 inch length, left hand cabinet member ties this part directly to 24 inch deep file drawers built on the 8500 series platform. The side mount, ball bearing classification combined with full extension operation makes it appropriate where lateral mounting and full drawer access are part of the design. The defined side clearance and 3-51/64 inch height give you clear layout dimensions, important when planning new cabinets or matching an existing bank of drawers. The hold-in feature, positive in/out stops, and 3 bearings per inch of race all support steady motion and closing behavior in daily file drawer use. For projects built around the KV 8500 series, this left hand cabinet member provides the specified component to keep installations consistent.
