I have a KRL7023 that a few of the drawers make a bang noise like they are hitting the back of the box when I close them.

Just curious if these slides are adjustable? Are the stops adjustable?
Can I adjust the speed at which the drawers close?

If so a detailed explanation would be great and if any one can point me in the direction of some pictured/detailed diagrams of what to adjust that would be fantastic!

If I'm not mistaken all the have is a rubber thing in the back of the slide. They are notorious for falling off.

yeah. it should have a rubber on rear of slide to make it quiet... i always treat my KRL series as my own but i has seen other techs who slam their drawers in and it do feel a bang....

The rubbers are still there on all drawers. They slide onto a tab and are are in great shape for what I can tell. Makes me wonder if the little tab they mount on had bent back from the drawers being slammed?

I bought this I used about a month ago and close the drawers with care, but maybe the guy who owned it before me didn't?
I might try to bend the tabs toward the front of the box a little to cushion the drawers...

Anyone know if the slides are adjustable? I'd like to slow em down a little...

Mine bang the back of the box too, but I gotta really slam the drawer to make it do that. Most of the time I just give the drawer a little nudge with my leg and they close quietly that way; aside from the sound of the plastic retention bar engaging. You can slow your drawers down by adding more weight to the drawer.
