Middle Atlantic UMSFP1-1/4 1/4 RACK FILLER PNL X 1SP

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic UMSFP1-1/4 is a 1/4-space rack filler panel designed for use with the UMS (Universal Mounting Strip) series shelves in standard 1U rack spaces. This 1/4 rack filler panel closes off unused partial-space gaps in UMS configurations to maintain a clean, professional rack appearance while supporting proper thermal management. The panel installs easily with included 4-40 screws and features a durable black powder coat finish consistent with Middle Atlantic rack accessories. It is an essential component for completing organized UMS shelf installations in commercial AV racks.

Product Description

In AV rack builds utilizing Middle Atlantic UMS series shelves, partial rack unit spaces often remain exposed after components are mounted. The UMSFP1-1/4 filler panel is engineered to close these 1/4-space gaps cleanly within a 1U rack opening, preventing air gaps that disrupt thermal management and leaving a finished, professional appearance in the rack. The panel is manufactured to UMS series dimensional tolerances and installs directly using the included 4-40 screws — no additional hardware is required. The black powder coat finish matches other Middle Atlantic rack accessories, maintaining visual consistency across the installation. Filler panels of this type are commonly specified by AV integrators to complete rack builds where UMS shelves are used for small device mounting. They also serve to block dust infiltration through open panel gaps, contributing to the long-term cleanliness of the rack interior. The UMSFP1-1/4 is compact and straightforward, but plays an important role in the overall quality and functionality of a finished UMS rack installation.
