Five 1U Blank Panels for 19" Racks

This pack contains five 1U blanking panels sized for standard 19-inch server and network cabinets. Each panel is formed from 1.2 mm cold-rolled steel with a black electrostatic-spray finish. Twenty M6 screws are included so the panels can be mounted immediately without extra hardware.

Suits Airflow Management and Cable Organisation

The panels close unused rack spaces to direct cooling air through active equipment and keep dust out of the enclosure. They also give a clean appearance and help bundle cables neatly. Buyers who need vented or brush-style openings for cable pass-through should choose a different panel type.

Steel Construction Handles Continuous Rack Duty

The 1.2 mm steel thickness resists flexing when panels are stacked or when adjacent equipment vibrates over long periods. The phosphated and sprayed surface resists corrosion in humid server rooms, and the fixed screw mounting keeps panels secure during repeated equipment changes.

Questions about this item

What rack width and screw type do I need to mount these 1U blank panels?

The panels fit standard 19-inch racks and include 20 M6 screws for installation.

Can I leave gaps between heavier 42U equipment and still use these 1.2mm steel panels for airflow management?

Yes, each 1U panel covers a full rack unit so you can block unused spaces while keeping the 42U enclosure organised.

How do I confirm the 5-panel pack is correctly secured after fitting the supplied screws?

All 20 M6 screws should be fully tightened and each panel should sit flush with the rack rails with no visible gaps.
