Most sub frames are of excellent build quality but the pinnacle of sub frame construction is Schroff (Germany)
Excellent quality and flexibility for Eurocard prototyping/R&D/Custom computing or musical projects

Aluminium sub-frame construction
ALL securing screws are "star" heads, you must have the correct driver to fit these. I actually found a hex driver of the correct size works well also.
Diecast Aluminium rack ears
Two sections - the front section is for the user cards which normally connect with a backplane used for power and signal distibution
The rear section of the sub-frame is designed for daughter cards upon which are mounted the various input/output connectors
CONDITION:
Excellent sub frame
Light scuff marks to the top/bottom panel
NO bends or other metal damage
All card guides are secure and fully functional
Rack ears are easily removable if not required
SPECIAL NOTES:
The photographs show the exact sub-frame I am offering. I have taken the top/bottom panels off to give a better view inside and also showing the diecast rack ear accessories with associated panels.
If picking up then it will be supplied in this form but if being shipped, I will leave it as shown in the photographs although I can break it down if the new owner prefers this.
This is a high quality, precision sub-frame - a little like playing with Meccano (if anyone remembers that product) providing an extremely flexible support frame for your special custom designed and made cards. This sub frame has the complete "cosmetics" so when all the external panels are fitted you end up with a very nice looking sub-frame assembly.
I also have other accessories for the cards such as front panels, pull handles, locking screws etc - please search my website for these hard (and often expensive) to find items.
