Hammond 1591 Series IP54 Flame Retardant ABS Enclosure Black - 87x57x36mm

The Hammond 1591 Series IP54 Flame Retardant ABS Enclosure offers a robust and versatile protective housing for your sensitive electronic components. Ideally suited for mounting printed circuit boards (PCBs) horizontally, its design ensures optimal component layout and stability. The smooth internal sides allow for easy connector installation, simplifying the assembly process and reducing the risk of damage to wires or PCB traces.

Constructed with a strong tongue and groove lid-to-box interface, this enclosure provides excellent protection against the ingress of dust and splashing water, meeting the IP54 environmental rating. This makes it suitable for use in a variety of settings where moderate exposure to elements is a concern. Both the lid and the box feature molded-in PCB standoffs, eliminating the need for additional mounting hardware and ensuring secure board placement.

Molded from easy-to-machine, flame retardant ABS plastic, the enclosure can be readily customised for specific applications, such as adding holes for connectors, switches, or indicators. Supplied in a satin texture black finish, it provides a professional and discreet appearance. The lid is securely fastened using M3 x 10 mm Philips machine screws, which thread into integral brass bushings for durable, reliable closure and repeated access.

With its combination of practical design features, protective qualities, and material safety, this Hammond enclosure is an excellent choice for prototyping, final product housing, or protecting control circuitry in industrial, commercial, or hobbyist projects.
