Rittal VX 8660.500 Cover Caps - Stainless Steel 1.4310 (AISI 302)
Part Number: 8660500
Quick Summary
Cover caps for base/plinth corners are designed to cap and protect VX enclosures while delivering a clean, professional finish. The VX 8660.500 set uses stainless steel to resist corrosion in demanding environments, helping reduce maintenance costs. A common challenge for panel builders is preventing corner damage from handling and exposure to dust or moisture, without compromising aesthetics. This solution aligns with typical European market standards (CE-style safety expectations) and relies on material grade 1.4310 (AISI 302) for durability. With a 4-pack and explicit VX compatibility, you gain predictable procurement, faster installation, and consistent appearance across assemblies, supporting longer service life and lower total cost of ownership.

FAQs
The VX 8660.500 cover caps are designed specifically for the VX base/plinth system with a height of 100 mm. They come in a 4-pack to support uniform coverage across multiple enclosures and align with VX base trim panels. Installation is straightforward and does not require custom adapters, ensuring quick project ramp-up and consistent corner protection.
The caps are made from stainless steel 1.4310 (AISI 302), chosen for its corrosion resistance and durability in industrial environments. This material provides robust protection against moisture and dust, helping to extend the life of base corners and reduce maintenance needs. The finish supports easy cleaning and long-term appearance retention in demanding panel applications.
These cover caps are well-suited for industrial automation, control panels, and machinery enclosures where durable corner protection and a clean finish are important. They support VX base/plinth systems and are compatible with stainless steel trim panels, making them a practical choice for factory floors, process automation, and other environments requiring reliable corrosion resistance and consistent aesthetics.
The provided data confirms material and compatibility (stainless steel 1.4310 and VX base/plinth fit) but does not specify explicit certifications. For regulatory assurances, verify with Rittal documentation or the supplier regarding CE conformity and any applicable industry standards. In typical European applications, components like these are designed to meet common safety expectations for enclosure hardware.
Using a 4-pack of stainless steel corner caps reduces replacement frequency and simplifies procurement, contributing to lower maintenance downtime and more predictable maintenance planning. The corrosion-resistant material extends service life, preserving enclosure integrity and appearance, which lowers total cost of ownership and improves uptime in automation and panel-building projects.
