Rack accessory SCHROFF telescopic slide universal 1U 356 mm (pair)

Telescopic slide rack accessory by SCHROFF, designed as a universal 1U mounting solution with 356 mm depth sold as a pair. These telescopic slides allow secure mounting and controlled extension of 19" rack-mounted equipment with a 1U height profile. They are intended to support servers, chassis and other compact rack devices, enabling easier access for maintenance and cable routing while maintaining alignment and load distribution in standard data center and industrial rack environments.

Advantages

The SCHROFF telescopic slide pair provides smooth, controlled extension and retraction, reducing strain during equipment servicing. Constructed to fit universal 1U profiles, the slides offer reliable lateral stability and maintain alignment under load. Their compact 356 mm depth is suitable for shallow rack spaces and small form-factor devices, while the paired design ensures even weight distribution and secure attachment to both chassis and rack rails.

Suitable for

• Mounting 1U servers and network appliances in 19" racks
• Server rooms and data centers requiring regular equipment access for maintenance
• Industrial racks and control cabinets with limited depth
• Applications where cable management and front/rear access are necessary

Key specifications

• Form factor: 1U compatible telescopic slides
• Extended depth: 356 mm nominal slide depth
• Configuration: sold as a pair for left and right side mounting
• Compatibility: universal fit for standard 19" rack devices with 1U height
• Function: full sliding motion for front access and servicing

How to use

Install the telescopic slides on opposing sides of the 1U device and secure them to the device and rack rails following standard rack-mount procedures. Verify alignment and smooth operation by extending and retracting the slides before placing the device under load. Ensure screws and fasteners are tightened to maintain stability, and route cables to avoid interference with the sliding mechanism. Regular inspection and light lubrication of sliding interfaces can support consistent performance.

Usage recommendations

Use the slides within their intended load range and mounting orientation. For equipment that requires frequent servicing, confirm clearances at full extension and organize cables to prevent snagging. Avoid applying excessive lateral forces when the slides are extended and perform periodic checks of fasteners and sliding surfaces to ensure long-term reliability.
