A slide rail device which includes a lower rail, an upper rail which is freely slidably engaged with the lower rail, and balls which are installed between the lower and upper rails. The lower rail includes a lower-rail bottom wall, a pair of lower-rail side walls, a pair of lower-rail upper walls, a pair of lower-rail lower-ball contact R-portions, and a pair of lower-rail upper-ball contact R-portions. The upper rail includes an upper-rail top wall, a pair of upper-rail side walls, and a pair of upper-rail ball-bearing walls. Each upper-rail ball-bearing wall includes an upper-rail lower-ball contact portion and an upper-rail upper-ball contact portion. A radius of curvature of the lower-rail lower-ball contact R-portion of the lower rail is greater than that of the lower ball, and a radius of curvature of the lower-rail upper-ball contact R-portion of the lower rail is greater than that of the upper ball.
