K&M Stands 49424 Panel

Durable Four-Space Aluminum Rack Panel for Custom Installations
The K&M Stands 49424.000.55 is a professional four-space blank rack panel built from durable aluminum and designed to fit standard 19" equipment racks. Whether you're assembling an audio rack, studio workstation, or server configuration, this panel fills unused slots, boosts airflow efficiency, and protects your gear with a clean, consistent look.

Flanged Construction Adds Rigidity and Support
This panel features a flanged design that offers superior structural strength over flat panels. The flanged edges help prevent bending during handling or long-term use in demanding environments like mobile AV rigs, server racks, or live event systems. Its structure holds up well even when racks are transported frequently.

Aluminum Build Keeps Weight Low Without Sacrificing Strength
Unlike steel rack panels that can add significant bulk to portable racks, the K&M 49424 uses lightweight aluminum construction. This material maintains the panel’s rigidity while reducing total rack weight, making it easier to move flight cases and portable gear setups. For fixed installations, the weight advantage also makes handling and mounting less strenuous.

Sleek Matte Black Finish Matches Pro Systems
The matte black powder-coated finish not only looks professional—it also minimizes glare and resists scratches and smudges. This ensures that your rack maintains a clean appearance in high-visibility installations such as broadcast control rooms, recording studios, or IT server rooms.

Improves Rack Protection and Airflow Management
Blank rack panels like this one play an important role in managing internal rack temperature by directing airflow to active components and shielding open slots from dust. This is especially important in systems that include power amplifiers, wireless receivers, and digital processors that rely on uninterrupted cooling.

Compatible with All Standard 19-Inch Racks
The K&M 49424 panel is fully compatible with any standard 19" rack system. Installation is quick using typical rack screws and the unit slots in seamlessly alongside your mounted gear. Its four-unit height is ideal for larger open rack gaps or consolidated blanking zones.
