HOSARMC-180 Rack Mounting Hardware, 24 Pieces

As advertised, however did not have the non threaded guide tip that most professional rack mount hardware has. This makes starting the screw in hole in the rack sides awkward.UPDATE!!!! Had to rearrange the equipment in the rack that was secured with this hardware due to an upgrade. I was ASTONISHED to find out that some of the screws, which were installed with a DeWalt Drill set on a medium torque limit were STRIPPED. Another screw's phillips head stripped out when I tried to remove it. Admittedly this screw had been installed without its fiber washer and apparently "bonded" to the equipment ear when it was driven in. Upon closer examination I found that these screws are ALUMINUM, and soft aluminum at that. A POOR choice for rack screws unless you are mounting filler panels and hand driving them.... DON'T forget the fiber washers!

Be extremely careful with these, especially if you use an electric screwdriver. I used these to secure a component in my studio rack, as well as fill in a few missing screws. A day or two later, I decided to replace that component. I found one of the screws I'd just installed was badly stripped. I had to get out a large manual screwdriver to ever-so-gently try to work the screw out. I got it out, but it scared me because I have no idea how to extract a stripped screw. I don't recommend these if you use an electric screwdriver. You might be okay with a good manual screwdriver, but you'd probably be better off looking for something better.

I like this brand when it comes to mounting screws. I have tried a plethora of others which seem to strip easily or do not fit very well. Not only will the thread strip, but also the head. The included washers are metal not plastic.You may think that it is not that important, but wait till you have to drill out a stripped screw from a $4k piece of gear. You would be praying and hoping the rack case does not ruined.

Have an audio rack where you need to secure your equipment? Then you need to keep these handy. They work perfectly to hold everything in place.

My desk didn't have rack mount screws, so I bought these. They fit that standard size and all. I guess $5 or $6 is OK for a bag of them, but probably only cost them $.20 to manufacture them.

Four stars because they are a bit soft where the screw bit goes. Scratched 4 installing 24, and one started to strip.Update: Took out 16 screws in rack, 2 stripped- still four stars for price though.

These are good I guess. The metal is not soft so it would be hard to strip - also the length was shorter than the screws I had used previously which I liked since the threads are very fine and I use a manual screwdriver. Installation was pretty quick

Own it. Use these on my home studio desk rack. My set-up is stationary, so my review is based on non-moving home use only. If that's what you need, buy it.

As Mike pointed out, what started out showing a price of $97 (and now dropped to $8), is in fact a bag of screws. Part number RMC180 bears this out. The 12 space tilt adjust studio rack has a part/item number of RMT-152. When I first ordered this, the accompanying picture did in fact show the studio rack (as of May 10th 2014), so I didn't think twice. However, just before I received the order, I noticed that the picture had changed to that of the set of screws. Now, on May 18th, it's back to the picture of the studio rack, with the RMC180 part number and very low cost, so buyer beware. Note though that throughout this amazon.ca has been fine. I'm going to be sending the screws back, but haven't quite yet, and they've already credited my CC.

If you order this item you will get an extremely overpriced bag of screws.The screws look like the picture, but they are not a studio rack.
