B-LINE SB745V1916AAL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size rack does the B-Line SB745V1916AAL ventilated shelf mount into, and what hardware does it use?
It's an Eaton B-Line series shelf for open frame racks, and it ships with #12-24 mounting hardware, which is the thread used on most tapped-rail open racks. The shelf measures 17.25 inches wide by 16 inches deep with a 3.42 inch height, so the rail-to-rail span and the depth behind the rails both need to clear those numbers before you order.
2) Will a 16 inch deep rack shelf work in a shallow wall mount open rack?
Check your rail-to-wall clearance first. The SB745V1916AAL projects 16 inches back from the mounting flange, so a shallow wall bracket or a swing frame with less than that behind the rails will not take it. On a standard floor standing open frame rack the 16 inch depth is well within the footprint.
3) Is this B-Line shelf vented for equipment that runs hot?
Yes. The SB745V1916AAL is a ventilated shelf, so air passes through the deck rather than being trapped under the gear sitting on it. That makes it the choice for switches, media converters, amplifiers or small appliances that dump heat downward, where a solid deck would pocket it.
4) Do I need to buy screws separately for this Eaton B-Line rack shelf?
No, #12-24 mounting hardware comes with the shelf. If your rack is threaded #10-32 or uses cage nuts instead, that hardware will not thread in and you'll need the matching screws for your rails.
5) Is the B-Line SB745V1916AAL shelf steel or aluminum, and what is the finish?
Aluminum, in a brushed aluminum finish. Total shelf weight is 3 pounds, which is a lot lighter than an equivalent steel tray, so it is easy to set in place single handed while you start the mounting screws. The brushed aluminum reads closer to a silver rack than a black one.
6) What is the exact part number to order this brushed aluminum ventilated rack shelf?
Order Eaton B-Line part number SB745V1916AAL. That single number covers the low profile ventilated shelf in brushed aluminum with the #12-24 hardware, there are no separate finish or size options to specify.
