Compact Axial Fan Guard
The Dayton 2RTA5 is a steel fan guard with a nickel-chrome finish. It suits installations that need a protective cover for square axial fans in electrical or HVAC enclosures. The unit mounts using four holes on 3-1/4 inch centres. It ships new and ready for immediate fitting.
Capacity and headroom
The guard accepts a 3 7/16 inch square fan frame and adds only 11/64 inch of depth. This slim profile leaves maximum clearance for airflow and downstream components. It will not suit round fans or frames larger than the stated mounting pattern.
Practical limits of the interface
The steel construction resists deformation under normal handling and vibration. Nickel-chrome plating provides corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments. The open mesh does not filter dust or moisture, so additional filtration is required where particulates are present.

Questions about this item
Will the 3 7/16 in diameter and 11/64 in depth fit my existing radiator opening?
The guard is built for a 3 7/16 in square fan with an 11/64 in depth, so match those dimensions to your radiator cut-out before fitting.
How can I confirm the nickel-chrome finish is intact once installed?
Inspect the steel frame after mounting; a uniform, shiny nickel-chrome surface with no bare spots means the coating is complete.
The listing says "Includes -" — what hardware comes in the box and what must I source?
Only the steel fan guard itself is supplied; mounting screws or bolts for the 3-1/4 in centre holes are not included.
