The Siemens SIMATIC standard mounting rail (6ES5710-8MA11) is a perforated 35 mm top-hat DIN rail cut to 483 mm for 19-inch cabinets — 482.6 × 35 × 15 mm, made of electrogalvanized steel. It carries SIMATIC S5 / S7 modules, terminal blocks, relays and DIN-rail PSUs such as the SITOP units listed above, and it is purely mechanical: no electronics, no configuration, no firmware. New original, quoted per order, ships in 24h by DHL (3–7 days).

The SIMATIC 6ES5710-8MA11 is the mounting backbone of an S5-100U panel: a 483 mm perforated standard rail in galvanized steel that takes the SIMATIC modules snap-on, with pre-drilled holes so the rail itself screws to the cabinet plate without further machining.
| Brand / family | Siemens SIMATIC (S5 accessories) |
|---|---|
| Product type | Standard sectional rail, perforated |
| Profile | 35 mm high x 15 mm deep |
| Length | 483 mm (for 500 mm wide cabinets) |
| Material | Steel, galvanized |
| Mounting | Snap-on for SIMATIC modules; screw fixing via pre-punched holes |
| Country of origin | Germany |
| Lifecycle | Legacy spare-part item (S5 platform phased out) |
S5-100U CPUs, I/O modules, and matching power supplies all clip onto this 35 mm top-hat profile; the rail carries the modules while wiring and spacing follow the SIMATIC layout rules.
The perforations let the rail be screwed directly onto the cabinet plate at standard intervals – no drilling, no marking – and the galvanized steel finish resists corrosion inside the enclosure.
The same 35 x 15 mm profile is available as 6ES5710-8MA21 (530 mm, 600 mm cabinets), 8MA31 (830 mm, 900 mm cabinets) and 8MA41 (2 m) so one rail type covers all common cabinet depths.

Data per the Siemens catalogue entry and product documentation; confirm the current data sheet before mounting the module or sizing the 24 V load.
CPU, I/O and power modules of the S5-100U line share the same 35 mm snap-on rail, so panels stay modular – extend the rail run instead of redesigning the plate.
Pre-punched fixing holes and a true SIMATIC profile mean the rail bolts straight into 500 mm cabinets and the modules seat with the original snap fit, not a generic imitation.
For plants still running S5-100U and ET 100U/200U stations, an original Siemens rail keeps the mechanical platform authentic while migration is being planned.
| Article number | Length | Typical cabinet width | Remark |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6ES5710-8MA11 | 483 mm | 500 mm | This rail |
| 6ES5710-8MA21 | 530 mm | 600 mm | Same 35 x 15 mm profile |
| 6ES5710-8MA31 | 830 mm | 900 mm | Long-run stations |
| 6ES5710-8MA41 | 2000 mm | Large enclosures | Cut to length on site |
All four rails share the 35 mm high, 15 mm deep perforated steel profile; only the length changes, so the choice is purely the cabinet width – 483 mm for 500 mm cabinets, 530 mm for 600 mm, 830 mm for 900 mm, and the 2 m rail for large enclosures or cut-to-size work.
Carries SIMATIC S5-100U CPUs, digital and analog I/O modules, power supplies and ET 100U/ET 200U stations; also accepts standard terminal blocks and other devices built for the 35 x 7.5/15 mm top-hat rail. Pair with the S5 insertion tool 6ES5497-4UC11 for press-fit contact work.
It is the 483 mm standard sectional rail on which SIMATIC S5-100U CPUs, I/O modules and power supplies are snapped when building or rebuilding an S5 station in a 500 mm wide cabinet.
483 mm suits 500 mm cabinets, 530 mm (6ES5710-8MA21) suits 600 mm, 830 mm (8MA31) suits 900 mm, and the 2 m 8MA41 can be used full-length or cut to size.
Yes in geometry – it is a 35 x 15 mm top-hat profile to EN 60715 – but it is the Siemens genuine part with SIMATIC-tolerant punching and finish, so original modules seat as designed.
No – the 6ES5710-8MA rails belong to the SIMATIC S5 accessory family (S5-100U, ET 100U/ET 200U); ET 200S stations use their own mounting rails of the 6ES7195 series.
Yes – it is perforated for screw fixing to the cabinet plate, so no on-site drilling is required.
Galvanized steel, giving a corrosion-resistant conductive surface suitable for control-cabinet installation.
The SIMATIC S5 platform is phased out; the rail is procured as a legacy spare-part item through channel stock, with condition and stock status stated on the quote.
The SIMATIC insertion tool 6ES5497-4UC11 for press-fit contacts, plus standard screwdrivers for the rail fixing screws and front connectors.
Any device specified for the 35 mm top-hat rail (terminal blocks, relays, small power supplies) can be clipped on; electrical compatibility is independent of the rail.
