Metal nipple SCHROFF MS SCHW 100ST 21100886 - metal connector for chassis and racks

Metal nipple SCHROFF MS SCHW 100ST 21100886 is a metal connector designed to provide a robust mechanical fastening and alignment point in server chassis, racks and industrial enclosures. Manufactured by SCHROFF, the part is intended for secure mounting of panels, modules and subassemblies where precise positioning and durable contact between components are required. The connector is constructed from metal to withstand repeated assembly and disassembly cycles typical in electronics maintenance and rack installations.

Advantages

The metal construction ensures high mechanical strength and resistance to wear from repeated use, delivering stable alignment for panels and modules. Its design supports consistent mating with corresponding threaded or press-fit parts, reducing the risk of loosening under vibration. The connector’s dimensions and finish are suited to professional rack and chassis environments, enabling easy integration into standard mounting workflows while maintaining electrical and mechanical integrity.

Suitable for

• Mounting panels and modules in 19-inch server racks and custom chassis
• Secure fastening points in industrial enclosures and electronic assemblies
• Maintenance tasks that require repeatable assembly and disassembly
• Applications where vibration-resistant mechanical connections are needed

Key specifications

• Material: metal construction for strength and durability
• Function: mechanical connector/nipple for mounting and alignment
• Environment: suitable for server chassis, racks and industrial enclosures
• Durability: designed for repeated assembly and disassembly cycles
• Compatibility: intended for use with panel and module mounting systems in rack installations

How to use

Locate the intended mounting point on the chassis, rack or enclosure and align the connector with the corresponding hole or mating fastener location. Install the metal nipple by pressing, threading or fixing according to the receiving component’s requirements, ensuring correct seating and alignment of the panel or module. Verify secure engagement and, if applicable, torque to the recommended specification for the mating fastener to prevent loosening under operational conditions.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, use the metal connector in combination with compatible mating parts and follow rack or chassis manufacturer guidelines for mounting torque and placement. Inspect the connector and mating surfaces periodically for wear and corrosion, and replace if deformation or significant wear is observed.
