Product: dl180 g6

Hello,

I work in datacentre and my boss wants me to attach rail kit (513642-005 /  513642-006) to rack from back. Id like to know exact screw dimensions that I can use. I tried searching for dimensions of front panel screws from dl180 (which we are using), but I found nothing. I have already ordered M5 screws,  diameter fits, but thread doesnt.

Thank you,

Tice.

Take one of the screws you are already using to a fabrication shop. They have all kinds of measuring tools.

 

They can use a thread gauge and tell you which size, length  and thread size the screw is.

I suggest using HP's PartSurfer to find the screws.

Another possibility is to use the Chat in the information section for HP Server racks.
