Accessory bundles and configuration examples
To speed procurement and control cost, we assemble practical bundles: hobby prototyping kits (PCB standoffs, short M3 screws, rubber feet), outdoor sealing starter packs (gasket tape + cable glands + stainless screws) and DIN-rail retrofit kits. Request a Quote when you need customised bundles for labs or low-volume production runs.
Sample calculation: parts per enclosure
Estimate costs quickly with a simple parts list. Example: 1 x gasket (R45), 4 x M3 standoffs (R5 each), 4 x M3 screws (R2 each), 2 x cable glands (R30 each). Total = 45 + (4*5) + (4*2) + (2*30) = R45 + R20 + R8 + R60 = R133. Adjust for pack sizes or preferred brands.
Troubleshooting and selection tips
If a gasket sits unevenly, check boss clearance and choose a thicker profile or adhesive-backed tape. For cable entry leaks, verify gland thread compatibility with existing knockout threads - some enclosures use metric threads, others accept plain push-fit glands. If mount points don’t align, measure hole centres and consider universal mounting plates or spacers. For more branch-specific pickup and measuring help, see our Branches & Trading Hours page.
