Advantages

Constructed from robust stainless steel, these screws and clip nuts offer long-lasting durability and dependable strength for demanding IT environments. The slide-on design of the clip nuts enables quick and effortless installation onto square-hole rack rails, significantly reducing setup time. Pre-installed washers help prevent scuffs and finish damage on your valuable equipment while eliminating extra assembly steps. Having a bulk supply on hand ensures that missing hardware will not interrupt your workflow during critical deployments or routine maintenance.

Suitable for

• Mounting servers into 19-inch and 10-inch server racks
• Installing network switches and patch panels in server cabinets
• Securing audio and video equipment in AV enclosures
• Setting up new IT infrastructure and telecommunications rooms

When it may not be suitable

This kit is not suitable for server racks or enclosures that feature threaded round holes or unthreaded snap-in designs, as the clip nuts specifically require square holes. Additionally, equipment that relies on metric thread sizes such as M5 or M6 will not be compatible with the 10-32 thread specification of these screws.

Key specifications

• Thread size: 10-32
• Screw length: 19mm
• Quantity: 50 screws and 50 clip nuts per pack
• Material: Stainless steel
• Finish: Black screws and nickel-plated clip nuts
• Compatible rack types: 19-inch and 10-inch square-hole server racks and cabinets

How to use

Begin by aligning your rack-mountable equipment with the desired height on the server rack vertical rails. Slide the square hole clip nuts onto the square mounting holes from the inside of the rail until the spring clip secures them in place. Position your hardware against the rack rails so that the mounting ears align with the installed clip nuts. Insert the 10-32 screws through the equipment mounting holes and thread them into the clip nuts. Tighten the screws securely using an appropriate screwdriver, taking care not to overtighten and damage the equipment or rack threads.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your server rack or network cabinet features square mounting holes
• Check that your equipment requires 10-32 threaded fasteners rather than metric sizes
• Assess the total quantity of mounting points needed for your hardware installation project

Always verify the thread type and hole geometry of your specific server rack or cabinet before beginning installation to ensure complete compatibility and a secure mount.
