SBR16 Rail Stop Collars in My Van Build Kit

The item in my kit

My camper-van hardware purchases include a four-piece set of SBR16 rail stop collars. This page brings that small positioning component together with photographs and notes from my storage-drawer build.

A supported linear rail combines a round shaft with a support underneath it. These open-profile collars provide positioning stops while leaving room for that support.

Where it fits my build

My roof-storage diary records building a timber drawer frame on the patio, adding internal corner brackets and fitting its base. I then cut and attached the rubber lining before connecting the drawer to its cabinet with slides.

The photographs show that drawer construction sequence. The SBR16 collars are a separate purchase in my hardware kit, and the comparison below focuses on their rail profile, dimensions and pack contents.

My build notes

My recorded drawer work involved measuring, framing, lining and fitting the slides as separate stages. Seeing the bare frame and the lined drawer side by side makes the assembly sequence easy to follow.

For the collar purchase, the useful distinction is the open SBR16 profile and the space the collar occupies along the rail. The alternatives below give two other four-piece sets to compare with the purchased set.

The drawer build progressed from an exposed frame to a lined assembly with its slides attached.
