Rittal 5501355 Gland Plate Adapter - 1,200 mm Depth
Part Number: 5501355
Quick Summary
Rittal 5501355 gland plate adapter enables quick, secure mounting of gland plate modules in switchgear enclosures. Engineers often battle tool-heavy assembly and misalignment that slow projects and inflate installation costs. The part aligns with common industry classifications and standards to streamline procurement and compatibility, including ETIM EC002620 and ECLASS 8.0 27189261. With its RAL 9005 black spray finish and sheet-steel construction, the adapter combines durable aesthetics with robust performance. Its 1,200 mm depth accommodates a range of gland plate configurations, while the included mounting rails support fast, repeatable installations. This combination of reliability and efficiency translates into shorter project timelines and lower total cost of ownership for electrical enclosures and control cabinets.

Feature: Tool-free mounting or screw-fastening provides installation flexibility while reducing cycle times and training requirements. Business Impact: Faster commissioning, fewer tool dependencies, and improved alignment accuracy for gland plate configurations. Application: Ideal for switchgear enclosures where rapid configuration changes are routine and reliability is critical. Feature: Sheet steel construction with a spray finish delivers mechanical strength and a durable, professional surface. Business Impact: Enhanced wear resistance in busy environments and sustained cabinet aesthetics over the lifecycle. Application: Suitable for control cabinets exposed to vibration and regular access. Feature: Depth compatibility up to 1,200 mm and standard mounting rails ensure predictable fit with common gland plate modules. Business Impact: Simplified planning, reduced custom fabrication, and easier reuse across projects. Application: Works with two-rail systems and standard assembly parts for scalable installations. Feature: Pack contents include two mounting rails and assembly parts, enabling immediate integration. Business Impact: Lower procurement complexity and faster start-up, saving time on site. Application: Reduces back-and-forth ordering and ensures consistent hardware across builds. Feature: Packing, weight, and classification alignment (2 packs, 2.222 kg per pack; ETIM EC002620; ECLASS 27189261) facilitate inventory management and supplier selection. Business Impact: Improved stock control and faster sourcing in engineering workflows. Application: Fits into centralized maintenance and procurement programs for electrical enclosures. Feature: Tool-free or screw-fastened options address common objections about vibration and retention, offering a robust solution for retrofit scenarios. Business Impact: Greater long-term reliability and adaptability, reducing rework costs. Application: Suitable for retrofits and new builds in demanding industrial environments.

FAQs
Before installing, verify the enclosure depth is 1,200 mm and that space allows mounting with two rails. The DK 5501.355 ships with two mounting rails and assembly parts, enabling either tool-free mounting or screw-fastened fixing. Ensure compatibility with gland plate modules you intend to mount and align rails to maintain consistent module spacing.
Yes. The gland plate adapter is designed for standard 2-rail gland plate configurations and ships with two mounting rails and assembly parts to support rapid, secure rail-based installations in Rittal enclosures.
The adapter is made from sheet steel with a spray-finished surface in black (RAL 9005). This combination provides robust mechanical strength and a durable, professional appearance suitable for ongoing maintenance and equipment downtime.
The DK 5501.355 is associated with ETIM 9 EC002620 and ECLASS 8.0 27189261 classifications, supporting accurate part matching in data-driven procurement. It also carries GTIN 4028177678941 and EAN 4028177678941 for reliable traceability across catalogs and ERP systems.
Tool-free mounting reduces installation time, minimizes tool wear, and lowers labor costs during commissioning. The ability to switch to screw-fastening as needed supports retrofit scenarios, while included rails and consistent hardware simplify ongoing maintenance and spare-part planning, delivering measurable time savings and lifecycle efficiency in industrial automation projects.
