Can I mount them on standard shelf that are particle board? Not sure if they are strong enough since they are particle board

Thanks
 
@mrtian97 I suppose that depends on how you are going to mount your particle board. If you mount your particle board vertically and then mount your equipment on to it that would be fine. If you are going to run your particle board horizontally like shelves on a bookcase, that could get heavy and sag over time, depending on what all you are mounting. Below is a picture of my newest set up. I used craft board from Lowe's.

I would suggest the vast majority of people end up mounting there's on some form of plywood or particle board.
