Hammond Electronics 1590 STOMP die-cast aluminium enclosures for stomp box applications

Click2Contact

Hammond Electronics’ 1590 STOMP die-cast aluminium enclosures are designed to accept the most commonly used switches for stomp box applications. Stomp boxes are foot-operated equipment used by electric guitarists to produce preset effects such as distortion, wah-wah, delay, chorus and phaser. Many players will have a bank of up to 20 stomp boxes, each providing a different effect.

The products are available in rectangular, trapezoidal and octagonal designs. All are rugged, easy-to-machine enclosures which are able to cope with the on-stage environment. The latest addition to the family is a 119 x 94 x 42 mm rectangular unit, designed to accept deep break-before-make switches that stop conducted interference when operated. All types are finished in a smooth gloss polyester powder paint, which does not chip after machining and provides a good surface for labels and silk screening.

The units are available in seven vibrant colours: cobalt blue, green, light grey, orange, purple, red and yellow (the units can be supplied in other colours to order to match corporate styles). A lap joint seals the units to IP54, protecting against the ingress of dust and water, and the painted finish is only applied to the external surfaces, maintaining RFI integrity. The rectangular versions can have enhanced IP65 protection through the addition of an optional sealing gasket kit.
