Why Choose the Rittal VX 8640.020 Base/Plinth Corner Piece Set?
The Rittal VX 8640.020 is a heavy-duty base/plinth corner piece set with front and rear trim panels designed to provide a stable foundation for compatible Rittal industrial enclosures. As part of the Rittal VX base/plinth system, it combines robust sheet steel construction with a modular design that supports straightforward installation, enclosure access and flexible base configuration.
The base/plinth corner pieces feature moulded self-positioning to the enclosure and may be used with or without trim panels depending on the application. Large openings in the corner pieces provide optimum access to screw-fastening points during installation, while the supplied plastic corner and baying covers conceal these openings afterwards for a neat, professional finish.
