Plastic Fan Guards from GardTec

The design of the GardTec plastic fan guards allows for more airflow, while also creating little noise. Like the wire form fan guards, the plastic guards are beneficial in keeping debris away from the fan and in keeping electronic equipment cool, while providing a cost effective solution. The two types of plastic fan guards available include thru-hole fan guards and snap-on fan guards. The thru-hole fan guards allow hardware to pass through them in order to attach directly to the fan or housing. No hardware is needed to mount the snap-on plastic fan guards, making them a time saving solution. Snap-on fan guards have pegs that are pushed through the mounting holes for a tight fit. The plastic fan guards range in size from 40 mm to 162 mm. The black plastic material is UL rated at 94V-0. They are the same type of fan guards that are sold with the GardTec fan filter assemblies. Plastic fan guards are made to fit cooling fans that are the same size. Fans that do not require a particularly high rate of airflow are the ones mostly benefited from the use of a fan guard. These fan guards can be cross referenced with brands such as Qualtek, Comair and ETRI.
