The PBPA19008BK is a 5U flat aluminum rack panel finished in RAL9005 matte black, designed to close off unused space in standard 19 in EIA-compliant racks. It suits data center, telecom and network installations where empty rack openings need to be covered to keep cool supply air and hot exhaust air separated.
The panel is formed from 8-gauge (0.125 in) 5052-H32 aluminum, giving lightweight durability and corrosion resistance in rack environments. Compared with steel panels, the lower weight simplifies handling and installation, and the smooth powder coat finish presents a clean, professional appearance across the rack face.
Dimensionally, PBPA19008BK covers 5U of rack height: the nominal panel height is 8.75 in (222 mm), with an overall drawing height of 8.72 in (221 mm) and an overall width of 19.00 in (483 mm). Corners are radiused at R .12 in (3 mm). Four 0.250 x 0.375 in mounting slots provide the panel's four mounting points; mounting hardware is not included, so specify rack screws and washers separately.
