The 1444-18 is a long, slim 13.5 in x 5 in x 2 in (343 mm x 127 mm x 51 mm) aluminum chassis. The 13.5 in length gives a wide front panel for rows of controls or connectors while keeping the depth to 5 in, useful for audio, tube and instrument builds.
It is a spot welded, heavy duty chassis in 0.040 in aluminum (0.04 in / 1 mm in the ordering table) with a natural aluminum finish. Per the series photo notes, the protective covering on the aluminum makes a convenient layout surface.
The drawing specifies inner box dimensions of 340.87 mm [13.42 in] long, 124.97 mm [4.92 in] wide and 48.77 mm [1.92 in] high. Shipping weight is 0.57 lbs (0.26 kg).
The underside is open; add natural-finish bottom plate 1434-18 (0.040 in aluminum, punched with 4 holes of 3/16 in diameter) and plated cover screws 1421J6 (package of six 6-32 x 1/4 in self-tapping screws), both sold separately. The 1451 series steel chassis covers are not compatible with the 1444-18.
This part is REACH and RoHS compliant and packaged in shrink wrap. Enclosures can be factory modified by milling, drilling or printing, and solid models are available in STEP or IGES.
