Mild-steel pushbutton enclosure
The HOFFMAN E5PB is a mild-steel pushbutton enclosure finished in ANSI 61 gray polyester powder. It measures 12.5 in tall, 3.25 in wide and 2.75 in deep with a single column of five 30 mm holes. The box meets UL Type 12 and 13, CSA, NEMA 12 and IP65 ratings. A closed-cell oil-resistant gasket and grounding stud are included.
Verify panel layout and ratings
Confirm that five 30 mm cut-outs in a single column suit your control station design. The enclosure has no conduit entrance holes, so cable entry must be drilled or punched on site. Mounting uses external feet, so check available surface space. Ensure the IP65 and NEMA 12 ratings match the environmental protection your application requires.
Replaces smaller or non-rated boxes
This enclosure upgrades from units with fewer holes, lower IP ratings or no oil-resistant gasket. The jump is worth it when you need five operators in one column, a grounded mild-steel body and a captive-cover screw system that speeds maintenance. It is not for buyers who need conduit knockouts, a different hole pattern or a non-metallic housing.

Questions about this item
What comes with the HOFFMAN E5PB enclosure and do I need to buy any mounting hardware separately?
The enclosure includes captive cover screws, a closed-cell oil-resistant gasket and a grounding stud. External mounting feet are built in, so no extra brackets are required for surface installation.
Should I choose the 30 mm hole version or a different hole size for my pushbuttons?
This model provides five 30 mm holes in a single column, which matches standard 30 mm industrial pushbuttons and pilot lights. Select it when your devices use that cut-out diameter.
What does the NEMA 12 / IP65 rating mean once the box is installed on a machine?
The UL Type 12, 13 and IP65 ratings confirm the enclosure will protect internal components from circulating dust, falling dirt and low-pressure water jets when the gasketed cover is secured with the captive screws.
