ABSTRACT:
A side-mount drawer slide with a floating wheel permitting lateral movement of the drawer to compensate for skewness in the drawer and/or supporting cabinet. A drawer slide of the type having a track attached to the drawer and a corresponding track attached to the adjacent wall is provided with a pair of wheels, one secured at an end of each track. On one side the wheels have only minimal lateral play. On the other side the wheels have a substantial predetermined lateral play to compensate for lack of parallelism in the walls of the cabinet and/or drawer so as to avoid the need for shimming the tracks when the drawer and/or cabinet are not parallel.
