The 1411VU is a 12 x 8 x 3 in (305 x 203 x 76 mm) utility case from the 1411 series, supplied in unpainted, natural aluminum. It is aimed at electronics hobbyists, OEM engineers and technicians who want a plain metal housing they can drill, mill, paint or label to suit their own project.

The case is a two-piece assembly made up of a bottom and a cover, both formed from 0.04" (1.02 mm) aluminum panels, and it ships with four self-tapping cover screws. Because the aluminum is left unfinished, it is protected through manufacturing and shipping by a plastic film cover that keeps the surface clean and also doubles as a removable drilling template for marking out holes.

The 12 x 8 x 3 inch size is one of the widest in the 1411 range, with an 8 inch wide interior for larger boards or multiple modules side by side. The drawing gives overall assembly dimensions of 304.44 x 202.84 x 76.40 mm (11.99 x 7.99 x 3.01 in) and a usable inner box of 302.41 x 197.99 x 74.37 mm (11.91 x 7.80 x 2.93 in) length by width by height. Shipping weight is 1.23 lbs (0.56 kg).

1411VU is REACH and RoHS compliant and ships shrink wrapped. The same size is also offered as 1411V (ASA 61 grey powder coat); 1412V (20 gauge steel, grey). The enclosure can be factory modified with milling, drilling or printing on a quote basis, and solid models are available in STEP or IGES format.
