SCHROFF guide set 160T 2 mm, 10 pcs — panel guide rails for 160T frames

SCHROFF guide set 160T 2 mm, 10 pcs includes ten metal panel guide rails designed for use with SCHROFF 160T series frames. These 2 mm guides provide precise lateral support for plug-in modules and printed circuit boards inside 160T chassis and rackmount enclosures. The guides are intended to maintain correct spacing, ensure stable mounting and alignment, and simplify insertion and removal of modules during assembly, repair, or routine maintenance.

Advantages

The guide rails are manufactured to match standard 160T spacing, offering consistent positioning and a reliable mating surface for boards and modules. Their 2 mm thickness balances mechanical strength with compact spacing requirements. Supplied as a set of ten, they allow replacement or installation across multiple slots and reduce downtime during repairs. The metal construction delivers durability and resistance to deformation under normal handling conditions.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Positioning and securing plug-in modules in SCHROFF 160T frames
• Board alignment during assembly and manufacturing
• Repair and refurbishment of rackmount enclosures
• Prototyping and lab setups requiring standard 160T spacing

Key specifications

• Compatibility: SCHROFF 160T series frames and chassis
• Thickness: 2 mm
• Quantity: pack of 10 guide rails
• Material: metal guide rails for mechanical support
• Function: lateral guidance and alignment for plug-in modules and PCBs

How to use

Install each guide rail into the dedicated slot or mounting channel of the 160T frame, ensuring it seats flush and aligns with adjacent guides. Slide the plug-in module or circuit board into the guides, verifying smooth engagement and correct alignment with front panels and connectors. For removal, withdraw the board along the guide path to avoid catching or bending. When replacing multiple guides, install them evenly to maintain parallel alignment across the chassis.

Usage recommendations

Check compatibility with your specific SCHROFF 160T enclosure before installation. Handle the metal guides with care to avoid deformation; inspect guides periodically for wear or damage and replace as needed. Use appropriate ESD precautions when working with PCBs and modules inside the chassis.
