The US Futaba 12 inch over-travel ball-bearing drawer slide delivers 100 lb per pair capacity with the extra travel needed to clear shallow cabinet openings and counter overhangs, sold in a ten-pair box for shops and installers stocking up on the short-run size.
Twelve inches is the go-to length for shallow bank drawers, small utility cabinets, nightstand and bathroom vanity drawers, and tool chest top trays where the cabinet depth keeps a longer slide from fitting. At that length, over-travel is often the difference between a drawer you can fully empty and one that keeps its back corner out of reach. The over-travel extension pushes the drawer past the cabinet face so rear contents — whether that is a back row of fasteners, a charging cable, or a folded file — comes all the way out without reaching inside.
The 100 lb per pair rating handles the loads common in shop and light commercial drawers at this size: fasteners, small tooling, hardware kits, and office supplies. This is a standard-motion slide with no self-close or damping mechanism, so the drawer rests wherever it is left — useful where a closing mechanism would interfere with a planned push-to-open retrofit or where the application simply does not call for it.
The slide is formed steel with a zinc finish, the workhorse combination across side-mount ball-bearing programs. Zinc plating resists the everyday humidity and condensation of indoor shop and residential environments; it is not rated for wet, washdown, or outdoor use. At 12 inches, the members are compact enough to minimize flex under load, and ball bearings in full-length raceways keep the pull accurate across the full travel range. Fasteners are not included in the box — use hardware sized to the slide's mounting holes and driven into solid material to keep the pair at its rated capacity.
Cabinet shops building bathroom vanities, nightstand drawers, or small utility cabinets in production volume get the most out of the ten-pair box: one order covers ten drawers and avoids breaking into a longer-slide pack. Installers fitting shallow face-frame or frameless cabinets where a 15 or 18 inch slide will not fit will find the 12 inch length solves the depth constraint while over-travel keeps the drawer fully usable. This slide is for indoor work only; for exterior or high-humidity applications, select a stainless or corrosion-resistant rated product.
Per pair — the standard basis for drawer slide load ratings. Both slides together carry 100 lb; do not double this figure by counting each member separately.
No. The motion is standard — there is no damper and no self-close ramp. The drawer stays wherever it is pushed. The product name references soft-close, but the Motion Technology attribute lists Standard; the page reflects the attribute, which takes precedence.
The source data confirms over-travel extension but does not state the exact over-travel length for this model. Expect the drawer to travel past the 12 inch slide length, clearing the cabinet face, but confirm the exact amount against the US Futaba spec sheet before designing around a tight overhang.
Side clearance for this series is not stated in the available data. Standard side-mount ball-bearing slides typically require 1/2 inch per side; confirm against the US Futaba specification before sizing the drawer box.
No fasteners are included. Order mounting screws separately, sized to the slide's mounting holes and appropriate for the cabinet material.
When shallow cabinets need a slide that reaches the back of the drawer and holds a real working load, the 12 inch over-travel ball-bearing slide in a ten-pair box is the efficient answer — covering a full run of small drawers without the guesswork of a longer-length slide that will not fit the cabinet.
