Mounting Plate Clamp Rittal SV 3561.000 — Steel, Silver, Width 34 mm, Height 10 mm

Rittal SV 3561.000 is a steel mounting plate clamp in a silver finish, designed to secure mounting plates and conductive bars on 60 mm rail systems commonly used in electrical enclosures and control cabinets. With a compact footprint of 34 mm width and 10 mm height, this clamp provides stable mechanical fixation and ensures reliable electrical contact where plating and grounding of laminated copper bars or plates are required. The clamp is intended for applications that demand secure plate retention without additional drilling.

Advantages

The steel construction delivers mechanical strength and long-term durability while the silver finish reduces corrosion risk in typical indoor cabinet environments. Its low-profile design conserves panel space and the predefined dimensions simplify planning and installation. The clamp offers good conductivity when used to connect laminated copper bars, supporting both mechanical fixation and electrical grounding. Installation does not require drilling, which preserves panel integrity and reduces installation time.

Suitable for

• Securing mounting plates on 60 mm DIN-rail or similar rail systems
• Fixation and grounding of laminated copper bars and conductive plates in control cabinets
• Electrical enclosures in industrial and commercial installations
• Situations where a compact, low-profile clamp is preferred to save space

When it may not be suitable

This clamp is designed specifically for 60 mm rail systems; it may not fit or provide adequate fixation on rails with different widths or non-standard profiles. It is a compact, low-height clamp (10 mm) and may not be suitable where larger plate offsets or thicker insulation layers require greater clamp height or a different fixing principle.

Key specifications

• Material: Steel
• Finish: Silver
• Width: 34 mm
• Height: 10 mm
• Designed for: 60 mm rail systems
• Primary functions: Plate fixation and electrical contact for laminated copper bars

How to use

Place the clamp onto the 60 mm rail at the desired position and align the mounting plate or laminated copper bar between the clamp jaws. Tighten the clamp according to the manufacturer's recommended torque to secure the plate and ensure electrical contact. As the product is designed to be installed without drilling, verify the rail and plate alignment before final tightening. After installation, confirm mechanical stability and continuity for grounding applications with appropriate testing equipment.

What to consider before purchase

• Compatibility with the specific rail profile and exact 60 mm rail width in your installation
• Required clamp height (10 mm) relative to plate thickness and any insulation layers
• Material and finish suitability for the environment (indoor dry vs. corrosive or outdoor conditions)
• Whether the clamp provides the necessary electrical conductivity for your grounding requirements

Usage recommendations

Use the clamp with correctly rated fasteners and follow enclosure and cabinet grounding practices. Verify contact continuity after installation and avoid over-torquing to prevent deformation of thin plates or bars.
