==Material Thickness Notes==
+
For information on Protocase material-specific design considerations including dimensions, finishes, fasteners, welding, compatibilities and more, see:
*Standoff and stud height is measured from the outside of the enclosure. This means that the height of a standoff / stud has nothing to do with the material thickness.
+
 
*All measurements on the face editor are from the outside of the enclosure. This means that you do need to take material thickness into account when trying to align a connector or board against the inside of the case.

*[[About_Measurements_and_Fabrication_Tolerances | '''About Measurements and Fabrication Tolerances''']]. Details on case size limitations, material thicknesses, and other measurement considerations for your enclosure design.
*To get the material thickness, email sales@protocase.com with the type (aluminum, cold rolled steel, etc.), the size, and the (u-shape, 20" wide, 10" high, 15" deep). We will get back to you with a material thickness.
