Universal 1U rack rails for 4-post cabinets

These 1U rails mount in standard 19-inch 4-post racks and cabinets. They accept network gear, servers or other 19-inch equipment that needs sliding support. The cold-rolled steel construction carries up to 130 pounds per pair. Installers working with APC, HP, IBM, Dell or Compaq cabinets will find them compatible.

Adjustable depth range 16 to 30 inches

The rails telescope from 16 inches to 30 inches so they fit cabinets of different depths. This single specification decides whether the rails reach the rear posts in your rack. Measure the front-to-rear post distance before ordering; if it falls outside the 16-to-30-inch window these rails will not span the gap.

Tool-less or bolt-on mounting with ventilation

The open-frame vented shelves let air flow around installed equipment without restricting cooling. Mounting holes follow the EIA-310 pattern so the rails bolt directly to standard square or threaded rack posts. The main installation issue is confirming the post spacing matches the adjustable range; otherwise the rails cannot be secured at both ends.

Questions about this item

How much weight can the 1U rails actually hold once they are bolted into a 42U cabinet?

The cold-rolled steel rails are rated for up to 130 pounds, so a fully loaded 1U server or network appliance stays secure in a standard 19-inch 4-post rack.

What does the EIA/ECA-310 compliance mean for day-to-day mounting?

It guarantees the hole pattern and 19-inch spacing match APC, HP, IBM, Dell and Compaq cabinets, letting the rails slide in without drilling or adapters.

Will the 16-to-30-inch adjustment range clear the rear cable managers on a deep cabinet?

Yes, the rails telescope from 16 inches to 30 inches, giving enough travel to clear rear cable troughs while keeping the 1U shelf level and vented for airflow.
