Give your Raspberry Pi 5 the silent, rock-solid protection it deserves. Machined from aluminium, this two-part enclosure turns the entire case into a heatsink with much more surface area than just the chips, pulling heat straight off the CPU (and other hot-spots) without a single moving part.

A dual-fan and single-fan edition is also available for those who like their Pi actively cooled.

What’s in the box?

  • CNC-milled aluminium top & bottom shell – tough, lightweight

  • Deep cooling fins – maximise surface area for increased passive heat dissipation

  • Pre-cut thermal pads – create a direct thermal bridge from the Pi 5’s CPU (and RAM if you wish) to the case

  • Hex bolts + hex key – for quick, secure assembly

  • Full access to every port, pin-header and connector on the Raspberry Pi 5

  • Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5 only

Assembly (5 minutes, tool included)

  1. Power down & unplug your Pi 5.

  2. Apply thermal pad: peel both films and place the pad on the CPU. Add a second pad on the RAM and other ICs if you’d like extra coverage.

  3. Sandwich the board: align the top shell (fins up) over the CPU, position the bottom shell beneath the board, and hold together.

  4. Bolt it up with the supplied hex screws.

Using HATs & add-ons

Because the case hugs the Pi, standard HATs will need 2×20 header extenders or a ribbon cable to clear the case.

Good-to-know

  • The enclosure conducts heat and electricity – watch for accidental shorts when wiring up external circuits.

  • The case will feel warm in use; that’s normal and why you’re unlikely to ever hit a Pi 5 “over-temperature” warning.

  • Dimensions: 87 × 56 × 25 mm (excluding port overhangs).
