Piton has introduced the new Rack Handle, an assembly that provides handles and captive fasteners for 1RU, 19-inch rack-mount equipment.
The Rack Handle has a robust molded design with integrated screws that secure the enclosure to any equipment rack. These handles mount outboard of the front panel space with supplied hardware, with no special panel prep required.
The Rack Handle is manufactured with high-grade materials and is EIA-310, RoHS, and NEBS compliant. It’s well-suited for a variety of markets, including pro audio, broadcast, test equipment, datacom and telecom.
Specifics:
—High strength ABS/PC polymer
—Captive #10-32 screws have EIA-310 spacing to work with all equipment racks
—NEBS compliant flammability rating and oxygen index
—Mounts on equipment ears, saving front panel space
—No special panel prep, press-fitting or swaging required
—Captive fasteners are integral to the handle, eliminating the cost of press-fitting or swaging separate captive fastener assemblies
—Supplied as a kit with 2 handles, 4 captive screws and 4 mounting screws: the single part number kit reduces the cost of documentation, procurement, kitting and assembly
—Can be used with subracks where no fixed front panel exists
—Works with standard EIA-310 front panel mounting slots, so can be added to existing designs and products
—Custom colors and M5 screws available
—Available with quantity price breaks at 25, 50, and 100 kits
