Bearings per inch in drawer slides indicate how many ball bearings support the slide’s movement per linear inch. Higher bearings per inch provide smoother motion, greater load stability, and reduced wear. This improves drawer performance, especially under heavy loads or frequent use. With 3 bearings per inch, as in the KV 8500P 12 and KV 8500P 16, users experience smooth and silent operation. A variety of bearing configurations ensures options for different performance preferences.
