This is a 14 inch right-hand cabinet member from Knape & Vogt's 8500 series, a full-extension side-mount ball bearing slide rated 150 lb per pair, with a hold-in anti-rebound detent that keeps loaded drawers from bouncing back open. It is sold in a Q-Pack quantity for shop and production use.
A standard 100 lb cabinet slide is correctly sized for a kitchen utensil drawer. A lateral file drawer stuffed with hanging folders is a different problem. The 8500 series steps into that gap: the 150 lb class per pair covers what a loaded file drawer actually weighs, and the full-extension travel means the rear folders come out to the cabinet face instead of staying buried. The 14 inch length suits compact lateral file units and shorter drawer boxes where a longer slide would run past the available cabinet depth.
The slide members are steel with a zinc finish for indoor corrosion resistance. Zinc is the working standard on this class of side-mount slide: functional, durable, and mostly hidden beside the open drawer box. The 8500 series runs a taller profile than a standard cabinet slide to accommodate its progressive ball bearing system and the quick-disconnect rail on the drawer member, so confirm the profile fits your drawer box height before ordering.
The KV 8500 series is the right call when load and access both matter: file drawers in office credenzas, lateral file pedestals, and shop drawers carrying tools or dense supplies. The hold-in anti-rebound detent is especially useful in file work, where a firmly pushed drawer would otherwise rebound open from the momentum of the load. Because this SKU is the right-hand cabinet member only, it is suited to production ordering where cabinet and drawer members are stocked and kitted separately. Confirm the matching left-hand cabinet member and the appropriate drawer members are on the same order to complete each drawer.
Yes. This is the right-hand cabinet member only. A complete drawer installation requires one right-hand and one left-hand cabinet member, plus the corresponding drawer members. Order both orientations.
No. 14 inches is the closed length of the slide. Because the 8500 series is full extension, the drawer member travels approximately the full slide length, bringing the entire drawer out to the cabinet face — but slide length and travel are two separate specs.
No. The hold-in anti-rebound detent is a mechanical catch that holds the drawer shut and prevents it from bouncing back after a firm close. It is not a keyed or positive lock, and it releases with a normal pull. There is no spring assist and no damper.
The 8500 series uses a 32mm hole pattern and requires rear support in face-frame installations. Add the matching KV rear mounting brackets, sold separately, to support the back of the slide where the cabinet side is set back from the face frame.
The Q-Pack is a trade quantity box of right-hand cabinet members. Check the pack quantity on the product listing. This packaging format is designed for shop and production use rather than single-piece retail.
When the drawer carries real weight and full access to the back matters, the KV 8500 series at the 150 lb class delivers both — and the Q-Pack format means the shop bench stays stocked without constant reordering.
