What do these drawer slide numbers mean?
From Accuride 3800 series full extension slides description:
Side space: .50" +0.062 / -0.0 [12.7mm +1.6 / -0.0] I thought the side space of the slides is 1/2"? What does the rest of that line mean? Cheers! Duke |

Cheers! Duke It's the tolerance on the nominal .5" dimension. i.e. the maximum possible width is .5625" and the minimum is .50" |

What does the rest of that line mean? Normally allowable error, so the side space can be 12.7 to 14.3 but not less than 12.7mm Tim w |

That is how much the distance can vary from the specification, and have the side still work. in other words: you must have a minimum of 1/2" clearance for the slides *and* you can have a maximum of 9/16" clearance for the slides. (the closer to 1/2" you are, without going _under_ 1/2", the better.) |
