RS PRO Steel Slotted DIN Rail, Top Hat Compatible, 500mm x 35mm x 7.5mm

A Din rail is a metal strip of standard dimensions originally defined in specifications published by DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung) in Germany, and since adopted as European (EN) and international (ISO) standards. It is made from cold rolled steel that is zinc coated and passivated. The coating thickness is a minimum of 8 microns. They are available in standard or slotted rail and supplied in various lengths.

• Provides a convenient and fast method of assembling any combination of electrical and electronic devices into application-specific systems
• They are quite compact, but fully functional at the same time
• Din rail is very easy to assembly and extensive standardisation have made this item increasingly popular, especially in industrial control, system builders, hardware suppliers
• All aspects of industrial systems – terminals, signal conditioning, circuit breakers, relays, motor starters and even programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are available as components that can be simply snapped onto the rail to build up the configuration
• Cold rolled steel construction
• Zinc coated and clear passivated
• Meets current BS, DIN and CENELEC standards

DIN Rail is a metal rail used to mount electrical, pneumatic and hydraulic components in control cabinets, enclosures racks and panels. DIN Rail is manufactured to conform to a specific set of standards outlined by the Deutsch Institute von Normen (DIN). Due to the uniform profile, it ensures components can be sourced from several different manufacturers and suppliers, safe in the knowledge all products can be mounted on the same rail.

Using RS PRO DIN rail enables you to mount your electrical components safely and securely. It provides a central location where wiring can be connected and maintained quickly and efficiently.

• Saves space – DIN rail terminals and smaller DIN mounted components can be packed into smaller spaces.
• Saves time - DIN mounted components easily slide or snap onto the rail. Relays, timers, circuit breakers and similar products can also be mounted into compatible bases for rapid connection.
• Saves money – DIN rail provides a cost-effective solution as it allows for a higher density of component mounting, which reduces wiring cost and enclosure space.

• Industry standard symmetrical rail – 35 mm x 7.5 mm (Width x Depth)
• Zinc-plated and clear passivated steel material
• Slotted and un-slotted variations
• 0.5 m, 1m, and 2m lengths
• Conforms to EN5022 and DIN 46277-3 standards
