The Knape & Vogt 8405 is a 16 inch side-mount ball bearing drawer slide with 1 inch of over-travel and a hold-in anti-rebound detent, finished in ebony black. It is built for cabinetry and furniture where the drawer needs to clear an overhang and the hardware needs to disappear into a dark interior.
A standard full-extension slide stops at the cabinet face. This slide goes one inch further. In a kitchen with a countertop overhang, or a cabinet with a thick face frame, that extra inch is what lets the back of the drawer come fully into view. The hold-in anti-rebound detent adds a mechanical catch: close the drawer firmly and it stays closed, without bouncing back. This pairing of over-travel and anti-rebound is particularly useful in shops and utility areas where drawers get pushed shut hard and left under a work surface.
The ebony black finish does more than match dark hardware. Inside a cabinet with a black or dark melamine interior, a zinc slide reads as a bright stripe beside the open drawer box. The ebony black finish on these slides reads as part of the cabinet. The underlying construction is cold-formed steel with ball bearings running in full-length raceways — the same bearing geometry as a zinc cabinet slide, just wearing a finish that disappears into the work. This is an indoor slide; the finish is not rated for wet or exterior environments.
Cabinet shops and furniture makers building dark-finished cabinetry will find the ebony black finish useful in two ways: it suits visible interiors where the hardware should be cohesive, and it satisfies designers specifying dark hardware throughout a project. The over-travel spec makes it a direct answer for drawers installed under a countertop overhang. At 100 lb per pair, it covers the standard kitchen and utility class — suited to pots-and-pans drawers, tool drawers, and storage drawers that see daily use. This SKU ships as a Bulk-Pack, making it practical to stock for production runs.
No. 16 inches is the closed length of the slide. Because it is an over-travel design, the drawer member travels the full slide length plus 1 additional inch — so the drawer extends approximately 17 inches past the front of the cabinet. Slide length and travel are two separate specs.
No. The hold-in anti-rebound detent is a mechanical catch that keeps the drawer closed and stops it from bouncing back open after a firm push. There is no damper and no spring assist — the drawer does not close on its own and does not ease to a stop. Soft-close is a separate, damped feature not present on this slide.
The slide requires 1/2 inch of side clearance per side, so the drawer box should be built 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening. This is the standard clearance for side-mount ball bearing slides.
No. The 8405 is non-handed — both slides in the pair are identical and fit either side of the drawer. Order the quantity that matches your drawer count.
It can, but face-frame construction requires rear support for the slide's back end. Add the matching KV rear mounting brackets for face-frame installs — these are sold separately and are series-specific.
When the finish matters as much as the function, the 8405 in ebony black keeps the hardware cohesive while delivering the over-travel and stay-closed detent that standard cabinet slides do not.
