Description
REF 03The RA-16C is a 25-slot conductive polypropylene rack built for standard-thickness PCBs (up to 1.6 mm). Each slot is 2 mm wide with a 4 mm depth and 15 mm pitch, holding boards upright and separated with zero surface contact between assemblies.
Boards span the 160 mm rack width and can overhang on both sides, so panels wider than the rack body are fully supported in the slots. At 0.34 kg empty, the rack is light enough to move loaded between workstations without operator fatigue.
The conductive PP material maintains system resistance of 10⁴–10⁶ Ω, keeping boards in the conductive range from SMT placement through final inspection. Ideal for storage, hand soldering, and inspection / QC stations.

REF 12Will the RA-16C fit my SMT loader / unloader?
The RA-16C is a bench-side rack, not an in-line magazine rack, it’s designed for manual handling, storage, and inspection at the workstation. For in-line SMT loader / unloader compatibility, look at the Gear Adjustment or Belt Adjustment magazine racks (B0103 / B0106 / B0108 / B0109 chassis with 563 mm height + 10 mm slot pitch).
Can I bake the RA-16C? What's the temperature ceiling?
No. Conductive polypropylene tops out at +80 °C, well below typical bake or cure profiles. For bake-suitable racks (J-STD-033 moisture removal at 90–125 °C, conformal-coat post-cure), use the magazine-rack Gear 200 °C variants. For 300 °C aerospace cure, see the High Temperature series.
What's the slot pitch? Will my boards fit?
Slot pitch is 15 mm with 2 mm slot width and 4 mm depth. Boards up to 1.6 mm thick seat without binding. Max board face is 400 × 260 mm; boards wider than the 160 mm rack body overhang and are still fully supported in the slot rails. Min board size is 50 × 50 mm.
Is the RA-16C ESD-safe for our EPA workstation?
Yes. System resistance is 10⁴–10⁶ Ω, which lands in the conductive band per ESD Association standards. Suitable for boards staged on EPA-controlled workstations between SMT, hand soldering, AOI, and final inspection. RoHS PASS via SGS Report No. NGBEC25007635101 (20 Nov 2025), all ten restricted substances Not Detected.
