Steel Interior Panel for Enclosures
The HOFFMAN A16P16 is a 12 gauge steel interior panel designed for mounting components inside compatible enclosures. It suits installers and panel builders who need a rigid, white-finished mounting surface for electrical or control equipment. The panel fits NEMA 12, 4 and 4X junction boxes and wall-mount enclosures that accept this size.
Passive Thermal Behaviour
The solid steel construction conducts heat away from mounted devices without any fans or moving parts, so it adds no audible noise to the installation. Power draw is zero because the panel itself is not powered; it simply provides a grounded metal surface that helps dissipate component warmth under normal operating conditions.
Mounting Compatibility and Space Use
The panel measures 13.00 inches high by 13.00 inches wide and is intended for enclosures built to accept this footprint. It frees up the enclosure interior for component layout while the white finish improves visibility of wiring and labels. Buyers who need a different panel size or a non-metallic mounting surface will need an alternative part.

Questions about this item
How is the 12 gauge steel panel secured inside a NEMA 12 or 4X enclosure, and what alignment step is often missed?
The panel mounts on the enclosure's internal studs or brackets using the four corner holes; the step often missed is confirming the stud pattern matches the 13.00 inch height and width before tightening.
What maintenance or replacement will the white finish on this steel panel need over time?
The white coating resists corrosion in indoor NEMA 12 or 4 environments; inspect annually for scratches or chalking and touch up with enamel if the steel substrate becomes exposed.
What is the first limit reached when the panel carries heavy components under continuous vibration?
The 12 gauge steel deflection limit is reached first; excessive weight on the 13.00 by 13.00 inch surface can cause bowing that stresses the mounting hardware.
