Heavy duty GRP enclosures
Hammond Electronics has a new family of IP65 sealed heavy duty watertight glass reinforced polyester enclosures
Suitable for the electrical, electronic, process and other industries where a rugged, corrosion and shock resistant housing is required, the 1590ZGRP family provides a lightweight alternative to die cast aluminium enclosures. The seven units in the family range in size from 80 x 75 x 55 to 260 x 160 x 90mm.

Small enclosures are saved from the scrapheap
The Clipper family is an entry level flameproof ABS enclosure, intended for housing small PCBs for handheld applications
All sizes feature an internal mounting shelf and captive mounting nuts moulded into the base section; the lid is secured with four captive screws located outside the gasketed tongue and groove seal and the unit can be mounted to a surface via through box blind holes, again outside the gasket protection.
The thick wall design provides good impact resistance and allows components to be securely screwed directly into the body of the enclosure without compromising the IP65 sealing.
The GRP enclosures are nonconductive, chemical and corrosion resistant, lightweight and rugged, making them ideal for use in harsh and adverse environments for housing delicate or sensitive equipment of all types.
