The PBPA19008GY2 is a 5U flat aluminum blanking panel finished in ANSI61 dark gray, made to cover unused rack space in standard 19 in EIA-compliant rack rails. It is intended for IT and telecom teams, AV integrators and facilities staff who need to close off open rack openings so cooling air is directed through equipment rather than recirculating around it.
The panel is fabricated from 8-gauge (0.125 in) 5052-H32 aluminum, giving lightweight durability and corrosion resistance in rack environments. Compared with steel panels, the aluminum construction simplifies handling and installation, and the smooth powder coat finish gives a clean, professional appearance across a rack front.
Panel height is 8.75 in (222 mm), equal to 5 rack units, with a 19.00 in (483 mm) overall width. The drawing shows a flat panel form with 4X 0.250 x 0.375 in mounting slots and R.12 in (3 mm) corner radii; there are 4 mounting points. Shipping weight is 2.02 lbs (0.92 kg). Mounting hardware is not included, so specify rack screws separately to suit your rails.
PBPA19008GY2 is RoHS and REACH compliant, TAA-compliant and manufactured in North America, with USMCA compliance and ECCN EAR99 — useful where government or supply-chain documentation is required. It belongs to a legacy product portfolio that has been offered for over 50 years and is also available for private label.
