The 1457J1602 pairs the slim 160 mm x 84 mm x 28.50 mm J-profile aluminum extrusion with flanged end panels, so the enclosure can be screwed directly to a wall, panel or machine frame. It suits OEM engineers, electricians and installers who need an IP65-rated housing for a long, narrow PC board that has to be fixed in place rather than left free-standing.

The extrusion has a clear anodized finish and is paired with black powder painted end panels. The body is a single piece of 6063 extruded aluminum with a minimum thickness of 0.06" (1.5 mm), while the end panels are ADC-12 Diecast Aluminum - rugged yet easy to machine for cable entries, connectors or controls. A 0.75 mm (.030") deep recess on the body is provided for labels or a membrane keypad. If you need a black body instead, order 1457J1602BK.

Nominal size is 6.3 in x 3.3 in x 1.12 in (160 mm x 84 mm x 28 mm). The drawing shows a 28.50 mm [1.122 in] extrusion height, end panels 86.96 mm [3.424 in] wide by 31.44 mm [1.238 in] high and an inside face-to-face dimension of 160.00 ±0.50 mm [6.299 ±0.020 in]. With the integrated mounting flanges the overall length grows to 192.14 mm [7.565 in], and the flanges are 40.00 mm [1.575 in] wide. The board slides horizontally into slots extruded into the body; the drawing notes the enclosure fits a 160mm (6.299") X 80mm (3.149") PCB, while the part page lists a maximum board of 159 mm x 79 mm.

Each assembly includes the box, two end panels, two closed-cell polyethylene foam end plate gaskets, #6 Taptight stainless steel screws with rubber O-rings and self-adhesive rubber feet. The thread-forming screws are black zinc plated for corrosion protection to ASTM B633-13, with a recommended torque of 5 lbf/in; replacement screws come in packs of 100 as 1457MS100. The part is REACH and RoHS compliant, and ships shrink wrapped at 0.55 lbs (0.25 kg).
