Hammond 1590WBB2BK 120x94x38mm IP65 Black Textured Diecast Box

The 1590WBB2BK is the watertight 1590BB2 enclosure in textured black polyester powder paint. It measures 120 x 94 x 38 mm nominal, has no mounting flanges and is rated IP65 with its silicone gasket, giving product designers a wide, finished-looking metal enclosure that keeps its coating even after machining.

The box and lid are made from diecast aluminum alloy, which is tough yet easy to machine, and carry a textured black finish of tough polyester powder paint that gives a lasting finish even after machining, with black screws included to enhance appearance. A lap joint where lid and box meet guards against dust and splashing water, and a side wall draft angle of 2° or less eases PC board mounting. The maximum P.C. board dimensions listed for this part are 84.83 mm and 110.33 mm.

The listed size of 1590WBB2BK is 4.7 in x 3.7 in x 1.49 in (119 mm x 94 mm x 38 mm), and the series ordering table gives a nominal 4.72 in (120 mm) x 3.70 in (94 mm) x 1.50 in (38 mm). It has no mounting flanges, so the outside is a clean rectangle of 119.50 mm [4.705 in] by 94.00 mm [3.701 in] by 37.75 mm [1.486 in] on the drawing. Inside, the drawing gives 113.77 mm [4.479 in] of length, 88.27 mm [3.475 in] of width and 33.50 mm [1.319 in] of height; the lid height is 0.16 in (4 mm).

As a watertight version it is designed to meet IP65 and includes a silicone gasket, supplied loose inside the enclosure rather than pre-installed. The purchased assembly includes box, lid and 4 cover screws that thread into factory-tapped 6-32 UNC holes. Recommended torque is 50-55 cN.m [71-78 ozf.in], or 25-30 cN.m [36-43 ozf.in] with the gasket fitted. Replacement gasket kit 1590BBGASKET holds two pre-formed, adhesive-backed silicone gaskets.
