A bonding stud for a data center cabinet comprises a body adapted to geometrically conform to a cage nut hole within the cabinet. The body may comprise opposing threaded studs and an annular shoulder that extends outward from the body to provide contact and bonding with ground strips used in connection with the data center cabinet. Projections formed between the shoulder and the sides of the body may penetrate the surface of the frame rails of the data center cabinet to provide a bond to the base metal of the frame rails.
