Half-Height Brackets

Upgrading a compact workstation or small form factor PC often means wrestling with full-height expansion cards that simply won't fit. These HPE half height brackets solve that problem cleanly: they let you mount standard full-height cards into low-profile chassis without cutting corners or compromising stability. Each bracket is precision-stamped from 0.8 mm steel alloy and nickel-plated for corrosion resistance, so your build stays secure and clean for years.

Who is it for

System builders, IT technicians, and enthusiasts working with low-profile desktop cases, HPE ProLiant MicroServer or similar compact servers, and slimline workstations. If you need to adapt a network card, USB expansion card, or any full-height PCIe card to a half-height slot, this pack gives you the hardware to do it right.

Tips

Before installing, verify your expansion card's bracket is removable and that the card itself is not too tall for the low-profile slot. Use the included M3 screws to attach the new bracket, and keep the original full-height bracket in case you later move the card to a standard chassis. For best results, handle brackets by the edges to avoid fingerprints on the nickel finish.
