Hammond HCM196BK 6 in Offset Horizontal Cable Management Bar

The HCM196BK is a horizontal cable management bar from the HCM Series, designed to support, route and strain-relieve cable bundles behind rack-mounted equipment in 19-inch rack systems. It suits IT and network rooms, AV and broadcast racks, telecom frames and structured cabling deployments where cables need to be anchored and held clear of equipment rears. This part number is supplied in packs of 10.

The bar is formed from mild steel and finished in a black smooth powder coat. The finish is noted as GREENGUARD, TSCA and RoHS compliant, supporting indoor air quality and environmental compliance programs, and the part is TAA-compliant and manufactured in North America with a Canada country of origin.

Overall size is 0.62 in x 19 in x 6 in (16 mm x 483 mm x 152 mm), with a 6.00 in (152 mm) depth created by a 90-degree offset that stands the bar off the mounting rails. The low-profile 0.62 in (16 mm) height keeps usable rack space available, and the bar mounts to EIA-310 mounting rails on an 18.31 in (465 mm) 19-inch mounting pattern without consuming a full rack unit. Mounting slots are 0.188 x 1.00 in typical, with 0.250 x 0.375 in slots along the bar for cable tying and hardware.

• Offset angle: 90 degrees, 6.00 in (152 mm) standoff depth
• Sold in packs of 10; mounting hardware is not included
• Hook and loop straps are not included with HCM196BK, but the bar is compatible with hook and loop straps such as the TS Series

HCM196BK bars can be used individually or stacked vertically to support larger cable volumes, helping maintain bend radius, reduce connector stress and cut congestion behind patch panels, switches and servers.
