Abstract: A drawer slide assembly for slidably mounting a drawer in a cabinet includes a pair of channel track members, each substantially C-shaped in transverse cross section, respectively secured to the adjacent side walls of the drawer and cabinet housing, each of said track members defining upper and lower channels respectively provided with longitudinally extending substantially flat planar parallel support surfaces. A runner is provided with a pair of laterally spaced apart upwardly extending arms respectively disposable in the upper channels of the track members and a pair of laterally spaced apart downwardly extending arms respectively disposable in the lower channels of the track members, each arm having a substantially flat planar bearing surface disposable in parallel sliding engagement with the associated one of the support surfaces. Each bearing surface has end portions inclined so as to diverge from the associated support surface toward the adjacent end thereof.
