Overview

The nVent SCHROFF part number 24560182 is a Torx countersunk head screw with dimensions M5 x 12 mm. Constructed from steel with a zinc-plated finish, this component serves as a precision mounting fastener for rack accessories and equipment assembly within the Europac PRO series. It complies with RoHS standards and is designed to provide secure attachment for chassis components.

Feature Summary

• Torx drive mechanism for secure tool engagement
• Countersunk head design for flush surface mounting
• Zinc-plated steel construction for corrosion resistance

Applications

• Mounting rack accessories in 19-inch enclosures
• Securing Europac PRO series chassis components
• General equipment assembly requiring M5 fastening

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package quantity when ordering, as sources indicate availability in sets of four pieces. Confirm that the zinc-plated steel material meets environmental compliance requirements for your specific deployment. Ensure compatibility with existing M5 threaded holes in the target rack structure before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, flush-mounting fastener is required for structural rack assembly. The Torx drive offers superior torque transmission compared to standard slotted or Phillips heads, reducing cam-out risk during installation. The M5 thread size and 12 mm length are standard for securing panels and brackets within the specified Schroff Europac PRO product line.

Part Context

This screw is an accessory component within the broader nVent SCHROFF Europac PRO ecosystem. It complements various rack-mounted bases and chassis units, such as the 3U and 6U models, by providing the necessary mechanical fixation. It is distinct from the primary enclosure structures, serving strictly as a hardware fastener for assembly and maintenance.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Users should verify thread pitch, head profile, and drive type compatibility if sourcing alternatives from other manufacturers.
