Middle Atlantic CSB Mounting Base for Rack - Black Powder Coat

The CSB cantilever support base delivers enhanced stability for RL Series Steel 2-Post Racks, making it an essential upgrade when you’re mounting heavy equipment on cantilever shelves. Designed to compensate for rearward center-of-gravity shifts, this mounting base helps maintain rack integrity, reduce wobble, and keep your gear secure in demanding environments. Finished in a durable black powder coat, the CSB not only strengthens performance but also delivers a clean, professional look that fits seamlessly into any server room, control room, or AV rack bay.

• Enhanced stability for RL Series 2-Post Racks: The CSB base broadens the rack’s footprint and optimizes load distribution, dramatically reducing sway and deflection when heavy equipment sits on cantilever shelves.
• Optimized for cantilever shelf configurations: Specifically designed to support the rear-heavy loads common with cantilever-mounted equipment, helping to keep the rack plumb and the shelves level under load.
• Durable black powder coat finish: A rugged, corrosion-resistant finish that withstands the rigors of data centers, production rooms, and AV installations while maintaining a professional appearance.
• Easy integration with existing RL Series racks: Engineered for straightforward installation with standard fasteners and mounting points, allowing you to upgrade stability without complex modifications.
• Versatile compatibility and robust performance: Built to work with RL Series Steel 2-Post Racks across various sizes, the CSB base enhances overall structural integrity when cantilever options are in use and heavy equipment is mounted toward the rear.

how to install [product]

• Shut down and prepare the rack area to prevent damage to equipment and ensure a safe work environment.
• Inspect your RL Series rack to confirm you are adding the CSB base to a compatible 2-Post configuration.
• Position the CSB mounting base under the RL rack, aligning the base with the rack posts and mounting points.
• Secure the CSB base to the rack using the appropriate fasteners for your configuration, tightening in a cross pattern to ensure even load distribution.
• Reinstall cantilever shelves and load equipment gradually, then test the stability of the entire assembly before normal operation.

Frequently asked questions
