IIRC the full extension drawer slides typically come with #8 x 1/2" long
screws. You should easily be able to go as large as what will fit the
holes. A word of warning however before committing to a particular screw,
test the screw and make sure that the slide will close fully with out the
head of the screw interfering with the travel.

typically, #8 pan-head, 5/8"
That's what K&V calls for, for their 8400-series 100lb, full-extension slides.
