58×24mm GPS Module Aluminum Enclosure

58×24mm GPS Module Aluminum Enclosure — a wide, slim extruded aluminum housing that adds a little extra width for positioning and measuring electronics. The 58mm width exceeds common 52-57mm profiles, allowing larger PCBs, bigger displays, and more side-by-side function modules, while the 24mm height keeps a slim appearance and clears small transformers, electrolytic capacitors (typically 18-22mm), relays, and medium-height components.

The profile body is cut to the required length and completed with end plates, CNC machining, and related processes. Internal card slots allow the PCB to slide in and be fixed without extra screws, offering assembly speed that other enclosure types cannot match.

Compared with plastic housings, the aluminum body provides better structural strength and a metal finish, and supports CNC-machined interfaces, mounting holes, threaded holes, SMA antenna holes, and heat dissipation slots.

Boyuan Hardware, with over 20 years of experience and a ~10,000㎡ factory, provides cutting, CNC, drilling, tapping, surface treatment, laser engraving, silkscreen, inspection, and assembly.

Product Features

01 | 58×24mm Wide and Slim Design

The 58mm wide × 24mm high cross-section size provides ample packaging space for electronic equipment.

The 58mm width is wider than the common 52-57mm specifications, accommodating larger PCB layouts and supporting more side-by-side function modules and interface design, meeting multi-channel input/output layout requirements; the 24mm height maintains a slim device appearance while providing ample component mounting space, accommodating small transformers, electrolytic capacitors (typically 18-22mm in height), relays, and medium-height components, supporting the integration needs of relatively complex circuit systems.

02 | Aluminum Extrusion Structure

The enclosure body is formed by aluminum alloy profile extrusion. The cross-section size of the aluminum extrusion enclosure is fixed, while the length can be cut according to actual product requirements. Therefore, the same specification enclosure can adapt to PCBs and electronic modules of different lengths. This structure is especially suitable for electronic products requiring series development.

03 | Suitable for PCB Mounting

The aluminum extrusion electronic enclosure can be designed with corresponding mounting slots or support structures according to the internal structure, for installing PCBs and other electronic components. The interior is standard-equipped with circuit board card slots, and the PCB can be directly inserted and fixed without additional screws.

04 | CNC Custom Machining Support

The standard profile is only the starting point. Boyuan Hardware can perform CNC machining on the 58×24mm aluminum enclosure according to customer drawings, including:

• Interface openings (USB, RJ45, aviation plugs, BNC interfaces, power interfaces, SMA antenna interfaces, etc.)
• Screw holes and positioning holes
• Threaded holes and counterbore holes
• Heat dissipation slots and ventilation holes
• Screen window openings
• Button holes and switch holes
• Mounting holes and wall-mounting holes
• Grooves and steps
• Chamfering
• Other custom structures

05 | Length Customizable to Product

58×24mm is the cross-section specification of the enclosure, and the product length can be cut according to the actual equipment dimensions. The specific machinable length is confirmed according to material, surface treatment, and product requirements.

06 | Efficient Heat Dissipation Performance

Aluminum alloy has excellent thermal conductivity. Combined with the 58mm wide-body design, it can effectively help internal components dissipate heat and extend equipment service life.

07 | Metal Enclosure Combines Structure and Appearance

Aluminum alloy is lightweight and has good structural performance, while retaining a natural metal texture. Through surface treatments such as brushing, sandblasting, and anodizing, different appearance effects can be obtained, giving electronic equipment a more professional product appearance.
