What is this part in the systainer at the rear hinge?

[simnick]

I found some cool 3d print bins that go in the back of the systainer in the clips. What clips, I said? I then I looked at all my systainers, and found 2 of the had a removable bar between the hinge pins.

Anyone know what this piece is called, why it exists, and how I can get more? And are they T-Loc only?

The only place I ever saw this on sale semi-standalone is here:https://www.sys-classic.de/systaine...s/Fixing-rails-set-SYS-FS-for-systainer-T-Loc::982.html

The best advice I can give is to drop a mail to the shop owner asking about.
It is a family business and the guy is probably the closest to "The TANOS dealer" in Europe there is in how close he is to TANOS.

The primary purpose of the "bar" is to improve the strength of the back top on the higher systainers like SYS4 or SYS5. It exists only for T-Loc as it is kinda a band aid for one of the limitations of the design. On Classic the back was stronger and the SYS3 solved this by having the 3rd hinge which fixes the back to the lid.

The ability to hang the bins or to store the ADAPT-L accessories is a secondary "bonus" feature.

If you are not after full compatibility, nor seek to strenghten the top on a high Systainer T-Loc, it may be much more practical to just 3D-print a "hanger" and screw/glue it to the top of a systainer of your choice. That would also allow making it more space-efficient by placing closer to the back wall.

While at it, can you share a link to the 3D model?

Thanks for the background info. It seems my domino systainers came with them, for whatever reason, even though they are shorter, and it did help center the domino bins.
