This is a 28 inch full-extension side-mount ball bearing drawer slide from Knape and Vogt's 8400 series, rated 100 lb per pair, finished in Ebony Black, and fitted with a hold-in anti-rebound detent that keeps the drawer from bouncing back open after it is shut.
The Ebony Black finish makes this slide a natural fit for cabinetry where hardware visibility matters. Dark-painted cabinet interiors, black melamine shop cabinets, and furniture-grade pieces with black hardware programs all benefit from a slide that disappears against the box rather than catching the eye in zinc or white. The hold-in anti-rebound detent adds practical value in shop and utility work, where drawers loaded with tools or hardware can bounce back if they do not have a catch at close. At 28 inches, this slide pairs with deeper cabinet runs — pantry-style base cabinets, shop drawer towers, and utility storage where a shorter slide would leave the drawer undersupported.
The slide is formed from steel with a ball bearing system running in full-length raceways for consistent, smooth travel across the full 28 inch length. The Ebony Black finish is a color-matched coating over the steel members — functional protection for indoor use and a deliberate aesthetic choice for dark cabinet programs. This is an indoor slide; the black finish is not a corrosion upgrade for wet or exterior environments.
The 8400 series is KV's volume side-mount line, and this Ebony Black variant is the right choice when the job calls for a dark hardware specification throughout. Cabinet shops outfitting a full run of black-hardware kitchens can pull these from the bulk pack and work through a batch without finish conflicts. The 100 lb per pair rating covers most residential and light commercial drawer loads, and full extension means no arguments about whether the client can reach the back of the cabinet. Sold as a bulk pack — confirm the per-pair unit count for your order quantity before building the drawer schedule.
No. The zinc-finish 8400 is a bright metallic finish; this version carries a black coating over the steel. The structural specs — 100 lb rating per pair, full extension, 1/2 inch side clearance, non-handed — are the same across both finishes.
No. The hold-in anti-rebound detent is a mechanical catch that keeps the drawer from rebounding open after it is pushed shut. It releases with a normal pull — there is no lever, no key, and no tool required to open the drawer.
Each slide requires 1/2 inch of side clearance between the drawer box and the cabinet interior. Build the drawer box 1 inch narrower than the cabinet opening to leave 1/2 inch on each side.
It can, but face-frame construction sets the cabinet side back from the front frame, so the slide needs rear support. Add the matching KV rear mounting brackets, sold separately, to support the back end of the slide in face-frame installs.
No. The 8400 series is non-handed — both slides in the pair are identical and fit either side of the drawer without modification.
When the cabinet program calls for black hardware from pull to slide, this 28 inch Ebony Black 8400-series slide closes the gap — full extension, a hold-in detent, and a finish that belongs in dark cabinet interiors.
