Abstract: A thin profile drawer slide apparatus for slidably supporting a heavy drawer in furniture, comprising symmetrical, identical channel members for slidably attaching the apparatus to a drawer and an article of furniture, a plurality of bearings slidably retained in the channel members by bearing retainers, and by an intermediate slide member. The intermediate slide member comprises the unitarily formed combination of a generally vertical central wall, a first bearing raceway joined to an end of the central wall, and a second bearing raceway joined to an arcuate wall extending angularly outwardly from the first bearing raceway, whereby the first and second bearing raceways are vertically and angularly separated. The ball bearings are arranged in four linear, slightly offset sets. Use of a single intermediate slide member with raceways for four separate sets of bearings provides a thin, strong drawer slide for carrying heavy loads.
