B-LINE SB596S23103AAL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How much weight can the Eaton B-Line SB596S23103AAL rack shelf hold?
The SB596S23103AAL double sided shelf is rated at 200 lb load capacity. It is a heavy duty solid shelf, so the load sits on a continuous surface rather than a vented or perforated pan, which suits switches, UPS units, or media converters that need full-footprint support.
2) How many rack spaces does this B-Line shelf take up?
Four mounting spaces are required for the SB596S23103AAL shelf, so plan on 4U of rack face. Its stated height is 6 inches. Count that space before ordering if your open frame rack is already loaded.
3) Do I need to buy mounting screws for the B-Line SB596S23103AAL shelf?
No extra hardware order needed. The shelf ships with #12-24 mounting hardware included, which is the thread used on tapped-rail open frame racks. If your rack uses square-hole cage nuts instead of #12-24 tapped rails, you will need the matching cage nuts and screws for that rail type.
4) What does "double sided" mean on this rack mounted shelf?
Double sided means the shelf mounts to both the front and rear rails of an open frame rack rather than cantilevering off the front posts alone. That gives support at both ends of the 20 inch depth, which is why it carries a 200 lb rating. It needs a rack with rear mounting rails at the correct depth, not a single-post wall rack.
5) Will this B-Line shelf fit a standard 19 inch rack?
The shelf measures 23.31 inches wide overall, which covers the mounting flanges that span the rack rails, with a 20 inch usable depth and 6 inch height. It is built for Eaton B-Line series open frame racks. Confirm your rack's rail-to-rail depth accommodates a 20 inch double sided shelf before ordering.
6) Is this rack shelf steel or aluminum, and will it corrode in a damp equipment room?
It is aluminum with a brushed aluminum finish, so there is no paint to chip and no ferrous surface to rust. At 5.2 lb the shelf itself adds very little dead load to the rack, which matters when you are stacking several in one frame.
