They say that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link.

RackGold is known for making top of the line hardware that is trusted all throughout the industry. Today, we will take a look at a few of their hottest products that are setting the standard for hardware quality.

10-32 Pilot  Point .75 Rack Screw

RackGold 10-32 Pilot Point .75” Rack Screw - 100 Pack USA Made

First, we have the RackGold 10-32 Pilot Point .75” Rack Screw - 100 Pack USA Made. This 10-32 rack screw is made of cold hardened steel and is produced domestically in the United States. Unlike your typical screws that can be soft, breakable, and easily strip, the RackGold 10-32 Pilot Point .75” Rack Screw stands up to the test over and over again. RackGold trusts their product so much that it comes with a lifetime warranty. These screws come in a black oxide and wax finish and feature a pilot point head which helps self guide the screw and prevents accidental stripping while also improving the ease of installation. These 10-32 rack screw can be utilized in any 10-32 tapped rail system and can also be installed in universal cage nut style rails when use in conjunction with 10-32 cage nuts. Don’t forget that these screws are shipped free of charge, and that you can always contact use at sales@rackfinity.com for a customized quote or volume discount!

RackGold 10-32 Hardened Steel Snap-on Cage Nuts - 100 Pack

To go with the .75” screws shown above, today we will also be blogging on the RackGold 10-32 Hardened Steel Snap-on Cage Nuts - 100 Pack. These snap-on cage nuts are both incredibly easy to use and extremely durable. The nut is housed within a 3/8 inch spring metal body. Compressing each side tab on the body allows the nut to easily be inserted into the square hole in the rack rail. The nut is secured in place by the wings that allow it to snap in, making it less likely to slide out of a rail than its slide-on counterpart. This easy to use product is great for the mounting of servers, rack shelves, switches, routers, and other networking, electronic, and data equipment.

RackGold Zinc 10-32 Rack Slide-on Cage Nut & Screws with Washers 25-Pack

If you want to set up your racking equipment from start to finish, you might want to consider investing in the RackGold Zinc 10-32 Rack Slide-on Cage Nut & Screws with Washers 25-Pack, which includes the washer (great for distributing the pressure of the screw head more evenly to prevent damage or scratches to your rack mountable devices), screw, and cage nut all in one set. When mounting servers, rack shelves, switches, routers and other equipment, this hardware by RackGold offers the strongest most secure fit for as far as slide-on cage nuts go. Other size options are available, including 12-24, M5, and M6. The Zinc finish includes each of the metallic parts being electroplated with a .0002” thick Zinc coating. They are also baked to reduce hydrogen embrittlement and trivalent chromate applied as a sealer. You can also order them in a black finish which includes a phosphate coating and a special oil which is spun dry. Other finishes include soluble oil and water-based zinc coating.
