Product Information
Extended Description
8617353 Rittal: VX mounting plate fastener, type A
Article number
VX 8617.353
Product description
For additional clamping and to reduce potential vibration of the mounting plate. The stay bolt is attached to the side of the mounting plate before positioning it. After positioning the mounting plate flush with the enclosure frame, the angle bracket may be secured onto the enclosure section. In this way, the area of the mounting plate is less restricted, and it can be secured without dismantling the rear panel.

FAQs
VX 8617.353 supports mounting with the plate flush to the enclosure frame or at a position within ±0 mm, enabling precise alignment without removing the rear panel. The included assembly parts simplify the process, reducing onsite complexity and the risk of misalignment during initial commissioning.
The stay bolt attaches to the side of the mounting plate before positioning, and the angle bracket is secured after positioning. This sequence locks the plate firmly, minimizing movement under operational vibration and maintaining panel alignment throughout service life in demanding environments.
Yes, it is designed specifically to fit VX enclosure types. Each 5-piece pack includes all necessary assembly parts to complete the mounting solution, enabling rapid, repeatable installations across multiple enclosures without sourcing additional components.
The hardware uses sheet steel with a zinc-plated finish, offering durable protection in industrial settings. The product reports a cradle-to-gate PCF of 2.6 kg CO2 eq per pack (Cat B), supporting environmental reporting. Users should assess local CE/IP requirements to ensure full regulatory alignment for their installation.
With assembly parts included and a design that avoids rear-panel dismantling, installation time is reduced and commissioning becomes more predictable. The improved mounting stability lowers vibration-related wear and reduces unscheduled maintenance, contributing to lower downtime and a faster payback in high-volume VX enclosure deployments.
