1U Sliding Shelf 20in Deep
This 1U sliding shelf fits a standard four-post rack and extends forward for easy access to equipment. It occupies a single rack unit and is built for server-room installations. The 20-inch depth provides a stable platform for keyboards, monitors or small appliances.
Replaces fixed or shallower shelves
A fixed shelf blocks rear access and a shallower shelf may not support deeper devices. This sliding unit solves both by rolling out on rails and offering 20 inches of usable depth. The upgrade is worth it when technicians need frequent hands-on access without removing gear.
Holds rack-mounted tools and peripherals
The shelf comfortably handles a keyboard-and-mouse tray, a compact LCD console or a lightweight test instrument. It runs out of capacity with heavy chassis servers or full-depth storage arrays that exceed the rated load. For those loads a fixed heavy-duty shelf is required.

Questions about this item
What rack depth does the 20in deep sliding shelf require?
The shelf is built for a four-post rack with a 20in mounting depth, so the front and rear rails must be spaced to accept that dimension.
How do you secure the shelf to the four posts during installation?
Fasten the included brackets to both the front and rear vertical rails; the step most often missed is tightening the rear brackets after the shelf is extended.
What part of the sliding mechanism should be checked over time?
Inspect the ball-bearing slides periodically for smooth travel and apply a light lithium grease if the shelf begins to stick.
