GardTec SC162-W1 162 mm Wire Form Fan Guard, Nickel Chrome

Wire form protection for a 162 mm cooling fan.

✅ Fan Size and Fit

Designed for compatible 162 mm cooling fans. Match the mounting holes and blade clearance as well as the nominal fan size.

Why Choose the GardTec SC162-W1 Fan Guard?

The GardTec SC162-W1 wire form fan guard helps protect the opening of a compatible 162 mm cooling fan. The rounded rings allow air to pass around the wire, helping limit the airflow disturbance and noise associated with the guard.

This C1008 steel guard has ten rings and two mounting positions with a bright nickel chrome finish. It is listed as a cross reference for Qualtek 08126; compare the mounting geometry and clearance before choosing it as a replacement.

🛡️ Blade Contact Barrier

Helps keep fingers and larger foreign objects away from moving blades.

💨 Open Airflow Path

Openings allow cooling air to pass through the guard.

🔇 Rounded Wire Profile

Smooth rings help limit guard related airflow noise.

⚙️ Equipment Cooling

Suitable for fan openings in electronic equipment and cabinets.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Protection at the opening: Provides a physical barrier that helps reduce accidental contact with the fan blades.
  • Ventilation support: The open ring layout allows the cooling fan to move air through the guarded opening.
  • Practical installation: Defined mounting positions help align the guard with a compatible fan assembly.
  • Reduced airflow disturbance: Rounded wire surfaces help limit turbulence and associated noise as air passes the guard.
