Enclosure Accessories / product groups

Plugs and vents for enclosure openings.

Seal unused openings with a screw plug. For airflow or pressure relief, choose a vent, a relief valve or a model that combines both functions.

  • Sealing screw plugs
  • Breathable vent plugs
  • Pressure-relief valves

Selection guide

Does the opening need sealing, venting or pressure relief?

A vent and a sealing plug are not interchangeable. For a vent or valve, the airflow or opening-pressure requirement matters as much as the mounting size.

  1. 01

    Function

    Sealed closure, airflow or pressure relief

  2. 02

    Mounting

    Entry thread, hole diameter and wall thickness

  3. 03

    Environment

    Water, dust, temperature and enclosure material

Applications

Unused entries and enclosure pressure.

These accessories close spare holes or provide a path for air to enter or leave an enclosure.

Unused cable entries

Close spare threaded holes in cabinets and equipment housings.

Enclosures exposed to temperature changes

Use a vent to equalize pressure as the air inside the enclosure warms and cools.

Pressure relief

Use a valve where the enclosure needs a defined opening pressure or flow direction.

Enclosure Accessories FAQ

Product selection questions

Find answers about the differences between product types and how to choose a model.

01What is the difference between a sealing plug and a vent plug?

A sealing plug closes an unused opening. A vent plug allows air to pass through a membrane or filter to equalize pressure.

02Is a breathable vent the same as a pressure-relief valve?

No. A vent provides airflow through its venting element. A pressure-relief valve opens in response to pressure; its opening pressure and flow direction are part of the selection.

03How do I size a screw plug?

Match the thread system, diameter and pitch to the enclosure entry. Then check the thread length, head clearance and sealing face.
