My experience has been that this number varies significantly from rack to
rack.  Hence the "slots" in rack gear as opposed to holes.  I measured
several of mine and find them to be around 18 3/8".  However, I have one as
wide as 18 1/2" (Happens to be my MOTM rack).  I did not have anything as
close as 18 1/4."
