Description

StarTech CABSCREWSM5 M5 Rack Screws

Overview

The StarTech CABSCREWSM5 provides 100 units of M5x12mm steel screws, nickel-plated for corrosion resistance. These screws are essential for securely mounting servers, switches, patch panels, and other standard 19-inch and 10-inch rack-mountable equipment. The M5 thread size is common across many networking and server rack accessories, ensuring broad compatibility. This pack addresses the common need for reliable mounting hardware, preventing equipment slippage and ensuring a stable rack infrastructure. The TAA compliance makes these screws suitable for government procurement requirements.

Compatibility

These M5 screws are designed for use with standard 19-inch and 10-inch server racks and network cabinets. They are compatible with any rack-mountable equipment that utilizes M5 threaded mounting holes, a common standard for network switches, patch panels, rack shelves, and some server chassis.

Installation Notes

Each screw measures 12mm in length, providing sufficient thread engagement for most rack-mount equipment without extending excessively into the opposite side of the rack rail. The nickel-plated steel construction offers durability and resistance to environmental factors within a controlled IT environment. A standard Phillips head screwdriver or a T20 Torx driver (depending on the rack rail type) is typically required for installation.
