The GardTec SC80-W6 80mm wire form fan guard is designed for 80mm cooling fans. The smooth rounded edges maintain quiet fan operation while preserving maximum (CFM) airflow efficiency. When heat dissipation, noise and airflow are critical design elements, the SC80-W6 design allows for 23-30% greater airflow, heat removal and substantially less objectionable noise than even the optimum sheetmetal guard. The GardTec SC80-W6 is a 4 position, 80 mm. 5 ring nickel plated chrome fan guard.

The dimensions of the cooling fan and fan guard need to match up in order for them to fit properly. The additional benefits to using a wire form fan guard include lengthening the cooling fan's life expectancy and reducing the amount of energy use. A cooling fan's performance can vary depending on such things as the collection of dust and the amount of airflow. Make sure the unit is turned off and unplugged before installation to reduce the chance of injury.
