K-87 is a 8.625-mile-long (13.881 km) north–south state highway in the U.S. state of Kansas. The highway runs from the end of state maintenance, where it continues as 26th Road, in the community of Vliets north to U.S. Route 36 (US 36) west of the community of Baileyville. The highway travels through farmlamd and is a two-lane highway its entire length.

K-87 was first established in October 1932, as a short spur connecting Vliets to K-9. On July 9, 1947, the highway was approved to be extended north to US-36. The entire length of the highway was paved by 1958. Since it was extended north, its alignment has not changed.
