DELOCK 120 x 120 mm Aluminium Fan Grill with Stainless Steel Dust Filter (Model 67458)

DELOCK 120 x 120 mm Aluminium Fan Grill with Stainless Steel Dust Filter (Model 67458) is a protective accessory designed for standard 120 mm cooling fans. The aluminium frame provides a rigid mounting surface while the integrated stainless steel mesh captures dust particles without significantly restricting airflow. It is intended for use in PC cases, servers and other electronic enclosures where maintaining ventilation and reducing dust buildup are important for component longevity and stable operation.

Advantages

The aluminium construction ensures a lightweight yet durable guard that resists corrosion and mechanical deformation. The stainless steel dust filter is washable and retains filtering performance over time, helping to reduce internal dust accumulation. The grill mounts directly over common 120 mm fan openings, offering straightforward installation and compatibility with existing cooling setups. Its open design maintains efficient airflow while adding a particle barrier.

Suitable for

• Desktop PC cases with 120 x 120 mm fans
• Rack servers and small server chassis requiring dust protection
• Network and storage enclosures where airflow and dust control are needed
• Custom electronic enclosures and DIY cooling projects

When it may not be suitable

This fan grill is sized for standard 120 x 120 mm fans and may not fit non-standard or proprietary fan openings. If very fine filtration is required (for example, cleanroom-level particle control), the stainless steel mesh may not provide sufficient micron-level filtration. Users seeking integrated fan-with-filter combinations or sound-damping features should consider dedicated fan/filter units or alternative solutions.

Key specifications

• Compatible fan size: 120 x 120 mm
• Frame material: aluminium
• Filter material: stainless steel mesh
• Mounting: designed to mount over standard 120 mm fan openings
• Function: dust filtration while maintaining airflow

How to use

Place the aluminium grill over the 120 mm fan opening aligning the mounting holes with the fan or chassis screw holes. Secure the grill using appropriate screws through the provided mounting points so the stainless steel mesh faces the airflow source you want to filter. Periodically remove the grill and rinse the mesh with water or use compressed air to clear accumulated dust; ensure the mesh is fully dry before reinstalling. Follow standard safety precautions: power off and unplug the system before installation or maintenance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your fan or chassis has a standard 120 x 120 mm mounting pattern
• Consider the level of filtration needed—stainless steel mesh captures larger dust particles but not ultrafine particulates
• Ensure clearance behind the fan for the grill thickness and mounting screws
• Plan for periodic cleaning to maintain airflow and filtering effectiveness

Usage recommendations

Use the grill on intake fan locations to reduce the amount of dust entering the enclosure. Schedule cleaning every few months or more frequently in dusty environments. Combine with regular internal maintenance and targeted filtration for power supplies or intake vents to achieve the best dust control without compromising fan performance.
