Inside dimensions of the Kenlin drawer socket

I'm looking at the Kenlin Drawer socket (32-081 or 32-082) but I would like to know the dimensions of the inner portion or where the drawer glide slides into?

Will the metal casing make a difference in fit vs. the 32-081

Why would anyone buy the 32-081 if the 32-082 does the same thing but is a better product???

I am trying to fix the rear drawer socket Kenlin 32-081, although the rear of the drawer has a steel plate that looks like the "metal part" of the Kenlin 32-082. Am I understanding this correctly? or would the 32-082 be the "best choice" even though the drawer already has a metal plate?

A few years ago my Dad was here and tried to help me fix my china cabinet drawers. We took them out and found the plastic guides had gotten broken during my move. Anyway, I never could find the part locally so I just lived with the problem, and had to tilt the drawers each time I opened them in order to get them to close. The other day I made two trips to a local hardware store with the part, and the drawer, and the guy there tried to tell me I could not get that part anymore and then suggested I drive way out of my way to buy new drawer glides and then go to see a handy man to install them. When I left the hardware store, I squinted at the part and found a name stamped on it - Kenlin. So I went on the internet and found the part!! 32-081 I ordered 3 of them from you that very day, and they shipped in three days. Yesterday it took me a total of 15 minutes to install all three. Thanks to you, to the internet, and to my new tri-focals! To think I have lived with this problem for 8 years!!!! I am a 60-year-old, single-do-it-yourselfer lady of the house. THANK YOU!

I have not been able to close the drawers on my son's Simmon's Little Folks dresser (now used in the guest room) for over 18 years. In order to get the drawer to close flush, you had to "tilt" it and I have never been able to get to the bottom of the problem. Today, I pulled out all of the drawers to spring clean inside the dresser unit and I realized that the Sockets were broken off at the bottom! Since I never knew what these were supposed to look like, and the breaks were razor clean, I didn't realize that was the problem!
These drawers have been the bane of my existance! If you are replacing yours, definately get the heavy duty 32-082 Kenlin Socket and be done with it.
