WHY RACKSTUDS

No-hassle configuration

  • Faster Installation

    Install from the front in seconds with no tools required. Complete a typical network switch installation in under 55 seconds and save hours over the course of an entire rack build. Simply insert, tighten by hand, and you're done. When you need to make changes, Rackstuds remove easily and can be reused again and again.

  • Stronger Performance

    Built from Grivory metal replacement thermoplastic, Rackstuds are rated to hold equipment up to 20kg (44lbs). Independent testing by SGC Labs exceeded our expectations with impressive results: 46kg push-in strength, 92kg pull-out resistance, and 156kg shear strength. That's real-world reliability you can count on.

  • Safer Operation

    Made from non-conductive reinforced thermoplastic, Rackstuds eliminate electrical hazards to both you and your equipment. The color-coded design makes dropped pieces easy to spot, while the plastic construction protects your valuable gear from scratches that metal cage nuts can cause.

"Personally I think these are the greatest things since sliced bread! Great product. Everybody I show them to loves them."

Don Hess 3M

I've used Rackstuds and I swear by them. If there are any I can buy, beg, steal, trade, swap for beer, or name my firstborn after, please let me know."

It took me less than half my normal time to install and hang equipment as opposed to using cage nuts.

Chris Huff Behind The Mixer

I just picked up the package and did some installs - these fit *perfectly*! I am looking forward to ditching cage nuts.

Frequently Asked Questions

The actual studs are made of Grivory™, a metal replacement thermoplastic supplied by EMS in Switzerland. Grivory™ is the closest thing you can get to metal. Grivory™ is commonly found in car door handles and wiper blade parts and is extremely strong and can handle wide temperature extremes which is why we chose it for Rackstuds™

Accordingly, we have tested Rackstuds™ to full breaking strain at over 150 kgs/330 lbs (per stud). The maximum equipment weight is 20 kgs/44 lbs across all four studs. This is to offer a satisfactory safety margin.

If you intend mounting shelves that are attached both front and rear, increasing the weight limit would not be an issue.
