Guide to Enclosure Styles

Front & Rear Panel Options:

Choose from one of our six standard faceplate styles - or design your own:

1U Profiles:

You can mix the panel types to have different combinations, as well as make other customizations to the panels. For instance, you can extend the sides of the front panel in order to mount the enclosure in a rack, or you can bend out the bottom flanges to use as mounting flanges for securing the enclosure in position.

Materials:


  • Our stocked extrusions are 6063 Aluminum.
  • The top and bottom panels specifically must be 0.064" (1.626mm) 5052 aluminum in order to fit the aluminum extrusion's slots.
  • The side panels are typically also 0.064" (1.626mm) 5052 aluminum, but they can be any material or thickness that we stock.

Fasteners:


  • We use #6 thread-forming screws for attaching the front and rear panels.
  • Self-clinching fasteners cannot be inserted into an aluminum extrusion unless a particular area on the extrusion is CNC machined first in order to insert the fasteners.
  • Fasteners can be installed in any of the enclosure's panels, as long as the fastener doesn't interfere with the extrusion once the enclosure is assembled.

Finishes:


The aluminum extrusions for the extruded consolet's front and rear come in a bare aluminum mill finish. Powdercoat and/or chem filmed can be applied to the extrusion as a secondary finish. We do not recommend applying anodizing to aluminum extrusions.

The top, bottom and side panels in an extruded aluminum enclosure can have many of our finishes applied (either for all four panels, or part-by-part):
