Rack Rail Specification Sheet

stocked types

TBC manufactures our own rack enclosures for 19" EIA rack equipment per the dimensional specs set forth in EIA-310.
Depending upon the product line, our enclosures may be manufactured from either wood panel products and/or sheet metal.
examples include: console rack turrets, mobile equipment carts, under-counter rack bays, etc.
The finished inside width of our rack enclosures is 19.125" [485.7mm], with a clear opening between rack rails of 17.72" [450mm].*
We can provide rack rail tapped for the following screw thread sizes: 10-32, M5, M6, and cage nut style (square holes)
Notes: * the exception to this is cage nut / square hole rack rail, which is slightly wider across its face than 10-32 / M5 / M6 rail (see
dimension 'B' below). This is the way cage nut style rail is manufactured in order to fit the square hole + clearance for the cage nut.
Please be aware that this makes the O.A. inside dimension between the rack rails 17.63" [447.6mm], instead of the 17.72"
[450mm] as specified in EIA-310. From experience we know that the following equipment will not work with cage nut rack rail:
Harris RCP panels, Leitch Panacea routers, Cisco switchers (e.g. Cisco 2960), Dell R610 1RU servers. Please check the O.A.
chassis width of your rack-mounted equipment when specifying Cage nut style.

Please review the rack rail types shown below, and mark the box that applies to your project.
