Knape and Vogt 8505 drawer slide defines this left hand cabinet member from the 8505 Series, giving you a side mount, ball bearing file drawer solution built around a 24 inch length. This design creates an over travel action, so the file drawer can extend beyond the cabinet front, improving access to file contents during work. The slide uses ball bearing construction, which supports progressive movement on ball bearings and creates smooth and quiet motion as the drawer is opened and closed in daily use. A hold-in feature is built into the slide, and this helps prevent drawer bounce back when the drawer is pushed fully closed. The height of 3-51/64 inches, including the quick disconnect rail, establishes a stable vertical profile for supporting file drawers. A side clearance of 1/2 inch plus or minus 1/32 inch on each side guides cabinet and drawer sizing to achieve the designed slide function.
This side mount ball bearing slide uses a 1/2 inch side clearance with a plus 1/32 inch tolerance on each side, so cabinet and drawer components are dimensioned to respect this clearance for reliable slide engagement. The cabinet member height of 3-51/64 inches including the quick disconnect rail influences drawer side height selection, because the drawer member aligns with this cabinet profile. The 32 mm pattern on the slide interacts directly with 32 mm system boring, allowing mounting holes in the cabinet side to match the slide pattern and streamline layout work. Recommended fasteners for mounting are #7 x 5/8 inch Phillips Pan Head (BST5/8-7-2C), which match the specified hole sizing on the slide for secure attachment. The side mount configuration positions the slide along the cabinet wall, giving file drawers guided extension while keeping the drawer bottom clear for file rails.
This ball bearing file drawer slide belongs to the 8505 Series and is described as a file drawer slide, so it is oriented to applications where drawers carry file storage. The 24 inch length works with file drawers built to that depth range, allowing the drawer box to run on the full extension travel. An over travel function is part of the description, letting the drawer extend beyond the cabinet front and improving access to folders at the back of the drawer. The hold-in feature operates at the closed position and resists rebound, keeping the file drawer seated when pushed closed in high-traffic office or shop environments. Positive in and out stops are part of the slide features, so the drawer travel limits are defined by the hardware, helping protect both the slide and the cabinet structure during repeated use.
The slide uses factory-attached drawer release clips with quick disconnect drawer members, so drawers can be removed from the cabinet members using these integral clips when cabinet access or adjustments are required. Progressive movement on ball bearings is specified, meaning the ball bearing races are arranged so that motion feels continuous through the stroke, which supports controlled drawer opening even when loaded. A retainer holds 3 bearings per inch of race, distributing bearing contact along the slide length and contributing to smooth and quiet motion over the full extension. The anochrome finish on the slide surfaces works with the bearing system, presenting a consistent track surface for the balls to run against under normal cabinet conditions. As a left hand cabinet member in a Q-Pack format, this part is one side of a coordinated cabinet pair, aligning with the corresponding right hand component for balanced drawer travel.
This product is described as a ball bearing file drawer slide, so it is intended for use on file drawers where smooth, controlled extension and over travel are needed.
This slide uses side clearance of 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 on each side, guiding how wide the drawer box should be relative to the cabinet opening.
The cabinet member length is 24 inches and the height is 3-51/64 inches including the quick disconnect rail, which defines the drawer depth and side height envelope.
This drawer slide has a 32 mm pattern, aligning it with 32 mm system drilling so cabinet side holes can match the slide mounting points.
The recommended fasteners are #7 x 5/8 inch Phillips Pan Head screws (BST5/8-7-2C), which suit the holes in the slide for secure side mounting.
The hold-in feature is designed to prevent bounce back at closure, so once pushed shut the drawer tends to stay seated instead of drifting outward.
This over travel hold-in drawer slide, identified as Knape and Vogt 8505-99 24 with anochrome finish, combines a 24 inch length, 1/2 inch side clearance, and 3-51/64 inch height to support file drawer projects. The 32 mm pattern and side mount format fit cabinet builds using system drilling and side-mounted file boxes. Progressive ball bearing movement, three bearings per inch of race, and quick disconnect drawer members streamline both daily operation and service work. For file drawers that need full-depth extension with controlled closure, this left hand cabinet member aligns with professional-grade expectations on slide behavior.
