APC & IBM (from what I've experienced) typically ship with M6 screws with cage nuts by default. I've seen 10-32 and 12-24, but you're correct - most of the rack manufactuers like Chatsworth seem to send 12-24 hardware with their racks. I've tried to standardize on 12-24 for my closets and M6 for my data center, myself.

I know there are varying sizes of screws for racks but I thought that a standard rack went with a certain standard that was followed by everyone. Every standard rack I have ever used, be it chatsworth, belkin, blackbox or others have always used the same screw. Alright I'm good now :-) James ----- Original Message ----- From: Jonathan Link<mailto:jonathan.l...@gmail.com> To: NT System Admin Issues<mailto:ntsysadmin@lyris.sunbelt-software.com> Sent: Tuesday, August 25, 2009 11:38 AM Subject: Re: OT - Rack Screws Google: screwthreads rack http://www.sweetwater.com/expert-center/techtips/d--03/23/2000 On Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 11:33 AM, James Kerr <cluster...@gmail.com<mailto:cluster...@gmail.com>> wrote: Anyone know what the thread is for screws for a standard rack?
