Rack mount sliding rail set SCHROFF 19" 2U 500 mm for 19-inch server cabinets

SCHROFF 19" 2U 500 mm sliding rail set provides a pair of robust rack rails engineered for mounting 2U devices in standard 19-inch server cabinets. The rails are designed to offer extendable support and stable load-bearing for servers, storage units and other rack-mount equipment with a 2U height and 500 mm depth requirement. The sliding mechanism allows controlled extension to facilitate installation and service access while keeping devices securely positioned when closed.

Advantages

The sliding rail set delivers reliable mechanical support and precise fit for 19-inch rack environments, minimizing lateral play and supporting maintenance tasks without full device removal. The rails simplify installation by aligning with standard mounting holes and providing smooth extension for front or rear access. Constructed to withstand regular insertion and extraction cycles, the set helps preserve equipment integrity and reduces downtime during servicing.

Suitable for

• Mounting 2U servers and network appliances in 19" cabinets
• Equipment that requires periodic front or rear access for maintenance
• Storage units and devices with a mounting depth up to approximately 500 mm
• Data centers and server rooms where secure, extendable support is needed

Key specifications

• Form factor: 19-inch rack rails suitable for 2U equipment
• Mounting depth: 500 mm usable rail length
• Configuration: pair of sliding rails with extendable mechanism
• Compatibility: designed for standard 19" server cabinets and racks
• Material and finish: metal construction for load-bearing stability (industrial finish)

How to use

Install the left and right rails into the corresponding vertical mounting profiles of the 19-inch cabinet, aligning mounting holes at the required depth. Secure the rails with appropriate rack screws and nuts to ensure firm attachment. Slide the equipment onto the rails and check that the extendable mechanism operates smoothly to allow access for wiring and maintenance. When servicing, extend the rails to the required position and lock or support the device as needed before performing work. After service, retract the rails and ensure the device is securely seated in the rack.

Usage recommendations

Verify cabinet depth and device mounting points before installation, use the correct rack hardware for your cabinet type, and follow load limits specified by your enclosure to avoid overloading. Periodically inspect the sliding mechanism and mounting fasteners for wear or loosening and lubricate moving parts only with manufacturer-approved products if necessary.
