Rittal 9957324 Captive Nut for EIA Rack Rails

The Rittal 9957324 Captive Nut for EIA Rack Rails allows the mounting of IT equipment within EIA rails, giving integrators a fast, secure way to install patch panels, shelves, and other rack-mount accessories into server racks and enclosures. Built to accommodate material thicknesses of 0.82mm, this captive nut seats into the rail perforation and stays in place during equipment installation, reducing dropped hardware and speeding up rack build-outs. It is a small but essential piece of hardware for any professional network cabinet, server rack, or IT enclosure project where consistent, repeatable rail mounting matters. It ships in a convenient 50-pack (50 ea) with a total packaging weight of approximately 0.45 kg, making it easy to stock, distribute, and use across multiple rack and enclosure projects without running short mid-installation.
