Molded in black flame-retardant ABS plastic with a flame rating of UL94-5VA, this curvaceous enclosure brings an attractive new look to the market. The compact enclosure measures 3.0 x 4.0 x 1.4 inches. Designed to fit the Raspberry Pi Model B, the Pi Series holds the PCB captive with access and labeling for each individual component of the board.  Included with the enclosure are 5 flush mounted light pipes that project light from the board's LEDs out of the end panel on the case.  The textured finish on the cases is resistant to fingerprints and scratching.

To aid in the development of projects and applications, Polycase provides 2D drawings and a 3D model of the Raspberry Pi plastic enclosure for instant download directly from their website at www.polycase.com/pi-series.  Polycase also offers CNC machining and custom printing on all enclosures.  For more information about Polycase's value-added services, visit http://www.polycase.com/customize-enclosures.
