What’s the difference between IP57 and IP65 or IP67?
IP65: Dust-tight and protected against water jets
IP67: Dust-tight and protected against full immersion
IP57: Limited dust protection and temporary immersion
Each rating suits different applications. IP57 is ideal for environments with moisture exposure but no need for complete dust sealing or extended water resistance.
One-stop service for design, molding, and injection molding.

FAQ
What does an IP57 rating mean?
An IP57 rating indicates that the enclosure provides limited protection against dust ingress (level 5) and can withstand temporary immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes (level 7). The rating is defined under IEC 60529, the international standard for ingress protection.
What materials are available for HoFengFab's IP57 enclosures?
We offer enclosures in:
Stainless steel (304/316) – for corrosion resistance
Powder-coated mild steel – for cost-effective indoor/outdoor use
Aluminum – for lightweight and EMI-sensitive environments
All designs are fabricated to tight tolerances with laser cutting, bending, and TIG welding for durability and precision.
Where are IP57 enclosures typically used?
Common applications include:
Outdoor communication equipment
Industrial control panels in humid environments
IoT sensor housings
Portable devices exposed to occasional rain or splashing
Marine or coastal installations (non-submerged)
Where are aluminum enclosures commonly used?
Industrial control systems
Outdoor electrical panels
Renewable energy installations (solar, wind)
Marine environments
Telecommunications
Automation equipment
Can I customize the design?
Yes. At HoFengFab, we provide full OEM/ODM customization:
Dimensions, cutouts, and mounting options
Locking mechanisms and gaskets
Surface treatments and coatings
Branding (screen printing, laser engraving)
Send us your CAD drawings or application specs, and we’ll assist with prototyping and production.
Are your IP57 enclosures certified?
All enclosures are tested per IEC 60529 standards. Upon request, we can provide test reports, compliance documentation, or work with third-party labs (e.g., TUV, SGS) to meet regional certification needs such as CE, UL, or RoHS.
What is the typical lead time?
Prototype sampling: 10–15 working days
Mass production: 3–4 weeks depending on order volume
We support low MOQs and offer global logistics with export documentation.
How do I know if IP57 is suitable for my application?
Our technical team is available to review your environment and performance needs. If your device is exposed to occasional moisture, condensation, or brief splashes, IP57 may be appropriate. For more demanding conditions, we can recommend a higher IP rating.
