Rack shelf Rittal DK 7164.035 — steel, grey, load capacity 50 kg

Rittal DK 7164.035 is a steel rack shelf designed to be mounted inside equipment enclosures and racks. Finished in grey (RAL 70), the single-piece shelf provides a flat support surface for networking devices, instruments and small servers. It is intended for frame attachment in enclosures without 482.6 mm (19") accommodation and fits enclosures with widths of 600 mm and 800 mm. The specified load capacity for normal use is 50 kg.

Advantages

The shelf is made of steel and finished in a corrosion-resistant grey coating suitable for industrial and IT environments. Its single-piece construction gives a stable support surface and allows straightforward mounting to enclosure frames. The product is designed for use in enclosures where standard 19" mounting is not available, offering an internal storage option for equipment and accessories.

Suitable for

• Mounting inside equipment enclosures with 600 mm or 800 mm internal width
• Supporting networking equipment, switches, routers and patch panels that can rest on a flat surface
• Holding small servers, instruments and monitoring devices up to the rated load
• Organising power supplies, UPS modules or cable management trays inside non-19" enclosures

When it may not be suitable

This shelf is not intended for use as a front-mounted 19" rack shelf; it is designed for frame attachment inside enclosures without 482.6 mm (19") accommodation. It should not be used for loads exceeding the rated capacity of 50 kg, and it may not be appropriate for equipment that requires secured rack-mount brackets or vibration isolation.

Key specifications

• Material: steel
• Finish: grey (RAL 70)
• Quantity: 1 piece
• Designed enclosure widths: 600 mm and 800 mm
• Intended mounting: frame attachment inside enclosures without 482.6 mm (19") accommodation
• Rated load capacity: 50 kg

How to use

Position the shelf at the required height inside the enclosure and secure it to the enclosure frame according to the enclosure manufacturers frame-attachment points. Ensure the shelf sits level and that mounting fasteners are tightened to the recommended torque. Place devices and components centrally on the shelf to distribute weight evenly and avoid point loads. Verify that the combined weight of installed equipment does not exceed 50 kg.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm internal enclosure width is 600 mm or 800 mm and that frame-attachment points match the shelf mounting method
• Check total weight of devices to ensure it does not exceed the 50 kg rated capacity
• Assess whether equipment requires front 19" mounting brackets rather than a flat internal shelf
• Verify environmental requirements and corrosion resistance of the grey finish for your installation

Usage recommendations

Distribute loads centrally and evenly, avoid stacking heavy equipment at the shelf edge, and periodically inspect mounting fasteners and the shelf surface for deformation or corrosion. For equipment sensitive to vibration or requiring secured rack-mounting, consider using dedicated rack shelves or mounting brackets designed for 19" installations.
