Overview
The Middle Atlantic CBS-5 is a skirted caster base purpose-built for Slim-5 Series rack enclosures. It adds rolling mobility to your Slim-5 system while keeping casters hidden behind a steel skirt for a polished, finished look on any installation site.
Description

Four heavy-duty non-locking 3-inch swivel casters arrive pre-installed, making deployment fast and straightforward. The powder-coated steel skirt provides both aesthetic continuity and mechanical protection for the caster assembly. UL Listed in the US and Canada.

- Yes — the CBS-5 is designed for the full range of Slim-5 Series enclosures. The bolt pattern accommodates all standard Slim-5 footprints.
- Are the casters lockable?
- The CBS-5 ships with non-locking swivel casters. For installations requiring wheel locks, contact Creation Networks to discuss locking caster alternatives.
- How much does the base add to total rack height?
- The CBS-5 adds exactly 3-3/4 inches to the overall rack height. Factor this into rack clearance and ADA pathway planning.
- Does the skirt interfere with airflow?
