Hammond 1590 Series Black Die Cast Aluminium Enclosure, IP54, Black Lid, 112 x 60 x 31mm

Put your PCBs out of harm's way by fitting them inside this rugged enclosure from Hammond. It holds circuit boards as large as 53.45 (L) x 105.05mm (W) inside, so it's a versatile option. The die-cast aluminium body is reliably rigid and resistant to wear and tear, while still being easy to machine with drilling tools. Thanks to its lap-joint construction, the unit is rated IP54 and delivers protection against dust, debris and water spray. Setup is quick – insert your board, fit the lid and secure it all together by driving the stainless-steel machine screws into the factory-tapped holes.

• Screws match the black body for a discreet finish
• Polyester powder paint stays firmly on the enclosure even after machining
• Light weight of 200g won't put unnecessary strain on your setup

• PCB development
• Communications industry
