I didn't receive it, and I didn't receive any mounting screws either.
It has a total length of 22" and slides out 22".
I'd double-check that there isn't anything blocking the track. Before the drawer can be locked, it must be pushed all the way back. Is there a reason for this? Is there anything else that has gotten lost in the guide's path?

The metal is durable and dependable. My only piece of advice is to use very flat screws/bolts on the small arm. You may not have enough clearance even if it appears that you do. When the head hits the rearmost spring on the locking arm, it can cause it to pop out of place. I had no choice but to use JB- To keep the spring in place after it was knocked out, weld it to the frame. I was planning on requesting a refund because I didn't believe I was to blame for the problem at first. The seller insisted on paying for return shipping, which is absurdly expensive for an 18lb item. Then they asked for a video of the problem and if they couldn't fix my issue, they would give me 20% refund and I could keep the item and I could keep the I eventually figured out what was wrong, fixed it, and refused to accept their money. Good seller, good product; just keep your eyes peeled. If it does not close gently and appears to be stuck, do not force it, as I did, or your spring will pop out.
I used these to make a tool drawer in the bed of my truck. It functions admirably. Please be aware that the inside rail cannot be separated from the outside rail. Make sure you have everything you need to attach the drawer to the cabinet body ahead of time. I've no problem carrying around 250 pounds on bumpy roads.
I haven't yet installed these because they arrived today. After installation, I'll update my review. br>br>Both slides arrived in perfect condition and glide effortlessly through the range of motion. To release the lock on the right hand slide, press down on it. I don't see why you couldn't install them the other way around, with the lock on the left (lift to release). The lock holds the slide all the way in or all the way out in either position (at least when I tested it without any additional weight on it). br>br>A "hardware kit" was also included. 10 machine screws (7/32" x 7/16" total length) with tapered heads and matching nuts My best guess is that you'll need at least 20 total, as it appears that you'll need 5 for one slide and 5 for a sheet metal drawer. I could be completely wrong; perhaps three screws per side of a cabinet and two per side of a heavy drawer would work better than I expect. br>br>The best part is that the instructions were included. They're simple and straightforward, with only two steps. . . " first step: "Install the outer rail" and "Install the drawer in the second step" are two different things. In reality, most installations will be unique, so you won't need instructions if you order these. Nonetheless, I was impressed that they were included and that they didn't cover a single part of the install that I could imagine people would have a question about, but they did clarify that they should be attached to a cabinet and a drawer, so that's a good start!br>br>In all seriousness, these were less expensive than other slides I've used, and so far they look and operate in a way that should work just fine for my fridge slide. I'll purchase the hardware I'm hoping to raise the rating.
To begin, I'd like to express my admiration for the glides' sturdiness. They appear to be of excellent quality, but the locking mechanism is only included on one side. This leads me to believe that when it's locked, it'll rack a little. br>br>One thing to keep in mind is that the rail that attaches to the drawer is not detachable from the glides, at least not that I could figure out, and there are no instructions included with these glides. However, there are holes in the appropriate locations that allow access to drill and screw holds, but this adds to the mounting complexity.
I built a pulley system with these rails. A laser etcher is being set up on a table. I needed something solid and not wiggly or cheap. I reasoned that because these appeared to be so well-made, they should be able to withstand my use for many years. I'm not sure about the weight limit, but they're made of fairly thick metal. I'd believe it if you told me. The locking feature is also very useful. I didn't expect to require it, but I'm glad it's available! The lock leaver is only found on one side. To be honest, this is fine for my purposes; I only gave 1mm of clearance, so the "loose side" doesn't wiggle at all, despite the fact that only one side is locked. You're aware because it doesn't hard-lock into place. It simply keeps it from rolling out or being accidentally pushed back in. It completely locks in and out.
Only one of the rails is locked. The second is straightforward. Excellent value for the money.
The only drawback is the inability to separate the rails, which was anticipated prior to purchase. As you plan your project, keep this in mind. The quality is excellent, and I intend to purchase additional supplies for future projects.
This was purchased to act as a keyboard tray slide. I have them flat on the bottom of the shelf I used, with the other side attached to the desk (the desk has three levels, and the shelf and slides are attached to the bottom one). I had done this before with a regular set of slides, which I had broken one day while leaning against the shelf. That is not something I am concerned about with these slides. Every day, I lean on the shelf, and I'm pretty sure the shelf will break before the slides. This is an excellent product.
