Guide rail SCHROFF 24560362 4.4" 220D pack of 10

Guide rail SCHROFF 24560362 is a 4.4" 220D component supplied in a pack of 10. It is designed to mount and guide modules or circuit boards inside rack or chassis systems, ensuring repeatable alignment and stable support during installation and servicing. The rail's dimensions conform to 220D form-factor requirements and suit environments where standardized guide spacing and mechanical stability are necessary for server, telecom and industrial enclosures.

Advantages

The guide rail offers uniform alignment across multiple modules and consistent lateral support to prevent board sag or misalignment during insertion and removal. Supplied in a pack of 10, it facilitates batch installations or spare-part stocking. Its 4.4" length and 220D-compatible profile provide predictable fit with compatible enclosures, reducing adjustment time and mechanical stress on connectors and backplanes.

Suitable for

• Mounting and guiding plug-in modules in 220D racks and chassis
• Server and data center equipment requiring standardized rail spacing
• Telecom shelves and industrial enclosures with 4.4" guide requirements
• Maintenance and assembly workflows where multiple identical rails are needed

Key specifications

• Length: 4.4 inches (nominal guide length)
• Form factor compatibility: 220D profile
• Supply quantity: pack of 10 identical rails
• Function: mounting and lateral guidance for modules and PCBs
• Typical applications: server, telecom and industrial chassis

How to use

Install the guide rail into the designated mounting points or slots inside the rack or chassis so that the rail profile aligns with the module edges and connector seating plane. Slide the module or board along the rail to engage the backplane or front connectors, ensuring smooth insertion without excessive force. For removal, support the module while withdrawing it along the same guide path to avoid tilting that could stress connectors. When fitting multiple rails, verify consistent spacing and parallelism before final tightening of any retaining hardware.

Usage recommendations

Store unused rails in their original packaging to protect profiles from bends or contamination. During installation, inspect mating slot faces for debris and confirm that module edges are free of burrs. Use appropriate torque settings for any fasteners to avoid deforming the rail or chassis. Replace rails in matched sets when devices show wear to maintain uniform guidance and connector alignment.
