Hammond R588-080-100 Variable Cover Plates, Joins 80mm to 100mm Extrusion

The R588-080-100 is a set of variable cover plates and gaskets for the R250 Series mobilCASE extruded aluminum enclosures. Instead of closing a single body, variable style end plates are sold in a set to connect two extrusions side by side, letting designers build a larger, multi-section portable case from standard mobilCASE bodies. This set joins a 80 mm profile extrusion to a 100 mm profile extrusion.

According to the series table, the R588-080-100 is used to join aluminum extrusion series R250-080 or R251-080 TO R250-100 or R251-100. Either the one-piece closed body (R250) or the two-piece "clam shell" body (R251) can be used on each side; the two sides can be different profile sizes, which is useful when one section needs more internal room than the other.

The plates are heavy duty diecast aluminum painted with textured black powder paint (RAL 9005). Each set includes the cover plates, thermoplastic black gaskets and mounting hardware. The part data lists the material as aluminum and the colour as black, and the manufacturer's short description for this number is "ROLEC PG CONNECTOR".

The shipping weight is 0.5 lbs (0.23 kg) and the set ships in a box. The R588-080-100 is RoHS and REACH compliant. The extrusion bodies themselves are ordered separately.
