Knape and Vogt 20 inch over travel soft close drawer slides use the 8455 Series design to give a drawer full extension performance, so the drawer clears the cabinet face and provides direct access to stored items. The integrated soft-close with Force Management technology controls closing speed, so drawers travel smoothly into the cabinet without slamming, which helps protect drawer fronts and reduces impact on the cabinet. These side mount ball bearing slides are part of the Knape and Vogt Side Mount Drawer Slides class, so they install along the cabinet sides instead of under the drawer, which helps when retrofitting existing carcasses that were built around side mount hardware. A black finish matches the SAP description of 20' BLACK OVRTRVL SOFT CLOSE SLIDE BULK, so the hardware blends into darker casework and does not visually stand out in open installations.
The non-handed side mount design lets each 8455FMB EB 20 slide install on either the left or right side, which simplifies layout because there is no need to separate left and right parts during assembly. The specified 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch side clearance on each side defines the total cabinet-to-drawer width difference, so builders can size drawers for a consistent fit that runs smoothly without binding. The 1-13/16 inch overall slide height informs how tall drawer sides can be before they interfere with the slide profile, so detailers can keep clearances at the top of the cabinet opening. The specified 20 inch length means the slide works with cabinets that can accept that travel distance, so installers can coordinate carcass depth with other components such as backs and toe space framing.
The Knape and Vogt 8455FMB EB 20 slide is identified as a 20 inch over travel soft close ball bearing drawer slide, so it suits drawers that need to extend fully beyond the cabinet face while benefiting from controlled closing. Being a Side Mount Drawer Slides product, it aligns with face-frame or frameless cabinet builds that are already dimensioned around side-mounted hardware, which helps shops stay with familiar construction methods. The three ball bearings per inch detail provides a dense bearing arrangement along the raceway, which supports smooth movement across the full stroke even when drawers are loaded. Polymer stop cushions are part of the web description, so when the drawer reaches the end of its travel the cushions absorb impact, which reduces noise in kitchens, offices, or shops where multiple drawers see repeated use. The black finish from the SAP description fits darker interior themes, so open drawers show coordinated hardware rather than bright tracks distracting from the design.
The integrated soft-close with Force Management technology is built into the KV Model #8455FM, so installers do not add separate dampers, and the mechanism automatically moderates closing speed to a controlled finish that is consistent from drawer to drawer. The non-handed design means every piece in the 8455 Series 20 inch length can mount on either side, which streamlines stocking and reduces sorting during assembly runs. Three ball bearings per inch combined with polymer stop cushions create smooth and quiet operation, which lets cabinetmakers deliver drawers that feel precise in motion rather than loose or harsh. The push-in lever noted in the description allows easy drawer removal, so installers can disengage drawers after test-fitting to adjust faces, add hardware, or transport cabinets more easily. The ball retainer latch and ramps are specified as aiding drawer insertion, so once the cabinet members are mounted, drawers can be slid into place until the latch engages the ramps, giving a secure connection without complex alignment steps.
The KV 8455FMB EB 20 is a Knape and Vogt 20 inch over travel soft close ball bearing drawer slide, so it provides full extension movement with controlled closing for side-mounted drawers.
The KV Model #8455FM is described as 90-pound rated, so a properly built drawer within that rating can carry substantial contents without overloading the slide mechanism.
The 8455FMB EB 20 uses 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch side clearance on each side, so the drawer box must be narrower than the cabinet opening by that total amount for smooth travel.
The web description lists "32 mm Pattern: Yes," so the slide aligns with 32 mm line-boring layouts commonly used in frameless cabinet construction and production shops.
The integrated soft-close with Force Management technology regulates final closing speed, so drawers do not slam, helping protect fronts, reducing noise, and giving a controlled feel in regular operation.
The push-in lever simplifies drawer removal, while the ball retainer latch and ramps aid drawer insertion, so installers can mount, adjust, and reconnect drawers efficiently during cabinet projects.
The Knape and Vogt 8455FMB EB 20 slide pairs 20 inch full extension over travel with soft-close Force Management technology, so it supports drawers that need full access and controlled closing. With a 90-pound rating, side mount configuration, 1/2 inch plus 1/32 inch minus 0 inch side clearance, and compatibility with 32 mm patterns, it fits production and custom cabinet workflows. Select this 8455 Series black slide when a project calls for consistent, smooth, and quiet drawer motion in a known Knape and Vogt format.
