Hammond Mfg. - Panel Rails (CCR & CPR series) & Accessories

CHOOSING A PANEL RAIL TYPE
Choosing the right rail for your application depends on what you are mounting, how heavy & how much time you have!

Tapped Rails:
The strongest, fastest to use, most economical and OUR MOST POPULAR panel rail. Designed to work with all of our accessories without needing adaptors. Downside is you MUST use 10-32 hardware.

Square Hole Rails:
Mainly used when hanging large servers (using mounting hooks or "snap" in rails - that require square holes). Anything else you want to rack mount you simply order your favorite thread clip nuts (ie...10-32, 12-24 or M6).
Square hole rails also allow you THE MOST FLEXIBILITY....you can use hooks, "snap in" rails, 10-32, 12-24 or M6 thread cage nuts. Downside is you need to purchase cage nuts for each hole used. They also take longer to mount - usually requires our insertion tool - RCNIT (see below). ALSO, you should know AHEAD of time where you will mount equipment & need cage nuts installed. It is not much fun juggling heavy rack mount equipment while trying to clip cage nuts into the square holes you need!
