Adaptors to make gear rack-mountable

Does anyone know of generic adaptors to make gear rack-mountable?  I know there are specific adaptors, like the ones for putting my GK 800RB bass head into my rack.  Wondering if there are any "one size fits all".
 
I've got a couple of rack shelves, but they're already full of stuff.
 
This all stems from Mod Bod's recent thread about mic pre-amps:  http://forum.cakewalk.com/tm.aspx?m=2594173 
 
I'm shopping for my first mic pre-amp, and I was wondering if something like a Studio Projects VTB 1 was rack-mountable.
 
Thanks,
Jim

    Looks like a half rack unit to me, so yes, you can buy a mounting kit which will let you rack it

    Thanks Jonesey.

    After I posted this, I did find a specific rack mount shelf for Studio Projects VTB 1 over at Sweetwater.  What I'm not finding is a generic mounting kit.

    Hmm.  Maybe I need to Google "mounting kit" instead of "rack"

    I have a deeper version (more like a tray) that I use to rack up my VTB1.  But it is very similar to that.


    Right now I'm looking for a kit to rack up a SONY A7 DAT.  Can't find factory brackets.
