Hammond C2F197836BK1 45U 36-Inch Deep Open Cabinet Frame, Black

The C2F197836BK1 is a 45U open cabinet frame from the C2 Series modular rack cabinet system, intended for AV, telecom, lab, industrial and general equipment installations where the cabinet is specified component by component. It is supplied as a frame only with no mounting rails, so integrators select the rail style, panels, doors and accessories that suit the project.

Construction is a 14-gauge steel welded assembly, part of the C2 platform that uses 14-gauge cabinet framing with 12-gauge reinforced corner brackets and 16-gauge doors and panels for a 1500 lb load capacity. The finish on this part number is RAL9005 Black textured powder coat; the same frame is offered in RAL 7035 Light Gray as C2F197836LG1. C2 Series powder coat finishes are GREENGUARD, TSCA and RoHS compliant, and the frames are TAA-compliant and manufactured in North America.

Overall dimensions are 86.06 in x 23.00 in x 36.00 in (2,186 mm x 584 mm x 914 mm), with the series ordering table listing an overall height of 86.91 in (2208 mm). Usable mounting height is 78.81 in (2002 mm) for 45 rack units, with 34.00 in (864 mm) of usable mounting depth — the drawing shows 34.34 in (872 mm). Shipping weight is 138 lbs (62.60 kg).

Matching 19 in rack rail pairs for this height are CCR78TZPL (tapped 10-32) or CPR78SZPL (square hole), and C2 rails adjust to infinite depth positions on C-channel struts. The frame includes provisions for four leveling feet (5/16-18 thread), caster hardware (1/4-20 thread) and Ø.50 in (13 mm) lagging points for floor anchoring. Top opening measures 27.25 in x 19.06 in and the bottom opening 17.00 in x 17.50 in for cable entry and panel fitment on C2F197836BK1.
