METCASE expands accessory options for enclosures

METCASE’s new enclosure accessories brochure features its expanded range of options including metal tilt/swivel bail arms, a wide range of molded enclosure feet, PCB mounting parts, 19″ front panels, rack shelves and rack hardware.

These universal accessories fit METCASE models and other manufacturers’ enclosures, as well as bespoke OEM equipment housings. Applications include networking, communications, laboratory instrumentation, industrial control, test/measurement, peripherals, interfaces and medical devices.

Bail arms with 30° indexing double as desk stands. The aluminum handle profile (ordered separately) fits between two diecast side arms. It is supplied cut to the required length for the customer’s enclosure. The bail arms are available in a range of color combinations including off-white, anthracite, light gray, black and traffic white.

METCASE’s recently expanded range of molded ABS (UL 94 HB) enclosure feet kits can be specified with/without tilt legs. They are suitable for metal and plastic enclosures. There are two models: robust CASE FEET and the designer TECHNOFEET. The feet are easy to fit (just three holes required) with the fixing screws supplied. TPE non-slip inserts are included to prevent the enclosure skidding on the desk. Choose from five standard colors: off-white, traffic grey A, light gray, black and anthracite.

For mounting circuit boards, METCASE offers a range of snap-in guides (for slide-in PCB fitment) in different lengths and for board thicknesses from 0.031″ to 0.078″. For screw fitting PCBs to enclosure panels, there is a kit that includes M3 PCB pillars (0.394″ high) and mounting hardware.

METCASE also offers a range of accessories for 19″ racks. This includes matt anodized aluminum 10.5″/19″ front panels (ventilated/unventilated) in all standard heights from 1U to 6U; the 10.5″ front panels are 3U and 4U. There are also mild steel CR4 2U cantilever rack shelves for mounting equipment without rack brackets. Choose from two depths 11.02″/15.75″ in light gray or anthracite. 19″ equipment mounting kits include four bolts, four cup washers (black or gray) and four caged nuts.
