B-LINE SB596V19106STG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the B-Line SB596V19106STG shelf fit a standard 19 inch equipment rack?
Yes. The Eaton B-Line SB596V19106STG is a rack mounted shelf 19.31 inches wide, which is the standard 19 inch rack mounting width once the mounting flanges are counted. It goes into an open frame rack, not an enclosed cabinet with rails.
2) How much rack space does this B-Line double sided shelf take up?
The shelf is 6 inches high, which works out to roughly 3-1/2 rack units at the standard 1.75 inches per RU. Plan your vertical space around 6 inches of frame, plus whatever clearance the gear sitting on it needs.
3) Do I need to buy mounting hardware separately for this B-Line rack shelf?
No. The #12-24 mounting hardware ships with the shelf. If your rack is tapped 10-32 instead of 12-24, the included screws will not thread and you will need 10-32 hardware.
4) What does double sided mean on a rack mounted shelf, and do I need a two post or four post rack?
Double sided means the shelf attaches at both the front and rear rack uprights rather than cantilevering off the front pair only. That gives support across the full 20 inch depth, but it requires an open frame rack with both front and rear mounting channels. A two post relay rack with a single mounting plane will not take it.
5) Is this a vented shelf or a solid one? I'm setting equipment that runs warm on it.
It is a solid steel shelf, not vented. Air will not pass up through the deck, so for gear that draws cooling air from the bottom you want a vented shelf instead. Solid decks are the better pick for batteries, tools, transformers, test sets, and anything with feet that would drop into a vent slot.
6) Will a 19 inch deep switch or a UPS sit fully on this shelf?
The usable depth is 20 inches, so a chassis up to about 20 inches front to back sits fully supported. Deeper equipment will overhang the rear edge, which is where you should be looking at rails or a deeper shelf instead.
7) What is the exact part number to order for this Eaton B-Line heavy duty rack shelf?
Order Eaton B-Line part number SB596V19106STG. That number covers the double sided, heavy duty solid steel shelf, 19.31 inches wide by 20 inches deep by 6 inches high, in Telco gray powder coat.
8) Will this B-Line shelf match the gray finish on the rest of my open frame racks?
The finish is Telco gray powder coat, the same standard gray Eaton B-Line uses across its open frame rack line, so it reads consistent in a frame room already built out in Telco gray. Powder coat over steel also holds up to handling better than a painted finish in a working equipment room.
9) How heavy is the SB596V19106STG shelf itself, and is this a one person install?
The shelf weighs 13.3 lb on its own. One person can hold it in place and start the screws, though on a tall frame a second set of hands makes lining up the front and rear holes easier since it mounts at both planes.
