These are great replacements for the broken and weak ones that were original to the house. According to the Q&A, these will work with non-Blum 3/4 drawer slides. So, I bit!

What are the dimensions of the inside opening for the slide to fit?
Drew N on Jan 29, 2017
BEST ANSWER: I found that while this is a Blum Socket, it also works well on the similar KV slides - no slop, excellent fit.
When do you expect to have the Blum Mounting Sockets in stock?
DEAN T on Jun 10, 2018
BEST ANSWER: if you are looking at item #71647. Then they are in stock

Quality that lasts
A quality product but I bought the wrong size. It has been difficult finding a 1 inch socket. To fix my drawer, I turned my broken socket upside down and switched sides, then duct taped the top part! So far, so good.

Easy install.
Wouldn’t install the white slides without them. Makes installation a snap.

Blum mounting sockets make life easier
Had a different brand before...not good for drawer shelves with canned goods on. After several months item "X" shelves would break the sockets, even after replacement(S).

I used the Blum Sockets and haven't had to replace a Blum since and I haven't removed any canned goods, either!

Thanks Rockler for helping us find a low cost fix for a broken bracket. It was easy to replace and worked perfectly.

Idiot proof
I like using things that even I can't screw up. Blum Mounting Sockets fall into that category. Put some double faced carpet tape on the mounting surface, stick the sockets where I want them and screw em down. Or as the guy from the TV commercial says - "badda book, badda bang".

I'm very satisfied. Plan to purchase another for additional problem drawer.
It was easy to install. The drawer works smoothly and much better than before.

Worked great. Install was fairly easy once I got inside the cabinet. Thanks.

Some dimensions would have helped
My drawer slides were a 1/16thhigher than the socket opening. To accommodate my rails I turned the sockets over and cut away the top web. With a bit of modifications on the cabinet end they work fine.
