1U Easy Rack
Print Profile(1)
Description
Standard mounting solutions for rack equipment often require bulky enclosures or fixed studio furniture. This minimalist 1U desktop rack system provides an elegant, heavy-duty structural stand for any 1U rack unit (such as audio interfaces, processors, or network hardware) directly on your desk.
Engineered with a rigid, stable footprint, it secures the unit via two independent lateral feet, lifting the hardware off the desk surface to clear space underneath and optimize front-panel access.
Features
- High Structural Stiffness: Optimized mechanical geometry designed to support heavy 1U hardware without sagging or flexing.
- Independent Lateral Feet: Modular design consisting of two independent side frames, ensuring compatibility with any 1U chassis depth.
- Desk Clearance: Lifts the unit off the desk surface, allowing cable routing and airflow underneath.
- Standard Hardware Interlock: Uses standard M6 hardware
Bill of Materials (BOM)
- 4x M6 Bolts/screws (minimum 16 mm)
- 4x M6 Nuts
Hardware Assembly Note
The lateral frames feature precise, integrated rear counterbores to lock the M6 nuts in place during assembly, preventing rotation and ensuring a flush, high-torque mechanical connection.
