RackPath 12U Vertical Server Rack Rail Pair Kit, DIY Rack Build, 12-24 Screws x48

I was wanting to mount some studio equipment but not wanting yet another piece of furniture. I use a repurposed entertainment unit (remember those?) around my desk as it provides good shelf space within easy reach. The shelf width is close to the industry standard for equipment racks (19"). This item was the perfect way to make the conversion by supplying the rack functionality to an existing structure. I'm thinking that was the genius impetus that drove this into existence from the start.Because of its "do-it-yourself" nature however, care and at least some mechanical ability / accuracy of workmanship is necessary. If this does not describe you then perhaps enlisting the aid of one talented in these areas would be beneficial.The good: Low cost STURDY, heavy-gauge steel. Simple design, and comes with the hardware needed to install it to existing cabinetry while also providing the hardware to mount equipment to the finished rack (that was a huge bonus). The finished product looks fantastic and performs equally well.There really is no "bad", but I will say caveats: There is a saying, "measure twice, cut once". While there is probably no cutting involved, I would say, "Measure twice, then measure again". Remember learning fractions in school and wondering when you'd ever need it? Well, this is where you need it. If your existing spacing will not provide the 19" screw hole to screw hole (center on) spacing once these rails are installed, then one will need to add spacers or shims to get to that spacing. I painted mine flat black to disappear behind the rails.Also, the supplied hardware to mount it to a wood shelf unit may lack the robustness necessary for heavy equipment loads. If one needs to fill depth or shim for standard spacing, then longer hardware may be needed. Also, the parts are metric but most furniture in the U.S. is dimensioned in inches and fractions. This only seemed to matter when getting longer bolts to attach the racks. Finally, leave about a 1/2" or so gap from the bottom of your install to allow for cords or extended equipment fascia.

Los rieles se ven de calidad pero los tornillos incluidos no son de la rosca correcta así que no le sirven.

Heavy duty rack rails with accurate holes and heavy metal gage.The paint job is well done as well as the marking

NOT ALL Rack Rails are alike! many low cost brands are not machined precisely and or the rack screw holes are inconsistent. this causes you to require several different rack screw sizes. We tried these for the first time. We installed them in our latest mobile unit. Took the unit on 3200 hundred mile trip to and from Indy and they are still holding up nicely. Recommended!

Updating my reviewThey're server rack rails - and that's exactly what the description says they are -I wanted audio rack rails and didn't read the description close enough,bought them and then posted a mildly negative review. Updating the review to 5 stars because they ARE exactly as advertised! The only issue was my failure to read the description!fwiw, Audio rails are #10 screws, These are #12 and I needed #10.Know what you want, read the ad, get the right thing. I didn't. My fault. Duohh!
