The Tenn-Tex C-283-01 is a right-hand, rear-mount adjustable bracket designed to support the back end of undermount drawer slides where the slide cannot fasten directly to the cabinet back — particularly in face-frame cabinet construction. It mounts via a 10mm dowel and ships in a shop-ready box of 400.
Face-frame cabinets are the primary reason this bracket exists. When an undermount slide is installed in a face-frame box, the cabinet side is recessed behind the face frame and the rear of the slide has nothing solid to fasten to. The C-283-01 solves that problem by giving the slide a fixed bearing point at the back of the cabinet. Set the bracket at the right height and depth using its built-in adjustment range, and the slide sits square without shimming or improvising. The same bracket is useful in frameless builds where the cabinet back requires standoff support, or where a boring pattern is already in place and dowel attachment is faster than driving screws.
The bracket is a Tenn-Tex Plastics component — molded to the tolerances the undermount slide program requires. The 10mm dowel mount is the defining spec here: the bracket presses into a bored hole rather than relying on screws, which speeds installation in production environments where a boring machine has already prepared the panel. The 11mm and 39mm figures describe the bracket's adjustable offsets, giving installers room to correct for minor variations in cabinet depth or back-panel position without cutting new holes. Because this is the right-hand member, it installs on the right side of the cabinet as you face the drawer opening.
A box of 400 is sized for shops running multiple undermount slide installations per day, not for a single retrofit. If your floor is processing face-frame boxes with undermount hardware, keeping a box of C-283-01 on the shelf alongside its left-hand counterpart means the rear-bracket step never stalls the line. Installers working in the field on face-frame remodels will find the dowel attachment quick to seat without a second fastener. This bracket is a Tenn-Tex program component — use it with the slides and front hardware it was designed to support, not as a generic standoff for other brands' systems.
It is primarily designed for face-frame applications where the slide's rear end needs a bearing point independent of the cabinet side, but it can also work in frameless builds where a rear standoff and dowel-bore pattern are part of the layout. Confirm the slide manufacturer's installation spec for your specific construction type.
These are the bracket's two adjustment parameters — they describe the range of positioning the bracket provides rather than two separate product sizes. Together they let you dial in the slide's rear height and depth to match the cabinet and align the drawer front.
Yes. The C-283-01 is the right-hand member only. Each drawer requires one right-hand and one left-hand rear bracket; the matching left-hand version is a separate SKU.
The source data does not specify whether dowels are packed with the brackets. Confirm with the order before assuming they are included.
Rear mounting brackets are engineered to the geometry of a specific slide program. Use C-283-01 with the Tenn-Tex undermount slide system it was designed for; do not assume cross-brand fit without confirming against the target slide's installation documentation.
When the rear of the undermount slide needs a solid home in a face-frame box, the C-283-01 puts one there — quickly, at the right height, and with no screws at the boring step. Four hundred per box keeps a busy shop supplied without interruption.
