Overview
This Raspberry Pi 5 metal case (metal case product type) is designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 5 development board. It is available in black and white, uses a high-hardness metal housing, and features a hollow (vented) top cover and bottom to enhance heat dissipation while protecting the board without blocking its interfaces. A large PWM speed-adjustable cooling fan mounts directly to the top cover to provide active cooling.
Key Features
- Designed for Raspberry Pi 5 (not universal with Raspberry Pi 4B/3B+ due to different interfaces)
- Black/white available
- High-hardness metal with metal frosting process
- Hollow carving (vented) design; integrated fan bracket on the case
- PWM cooling fan supports automatic speed adjustment based on temperature
- Dust-proof and anti-collision (as stated on product graphics)
- With power button: one-touch switching without using stuck pins
- Supports installation of Raspberry Pi 5 official active radiator / official active cooler (after removing the case fan)

- Raspberry Pi 5 enclosure for development and embedded projects requiring improved cooling and board protection
Details

Pair the case with a Raspberry Pi 5 board to build a protected, actively cooled setup for development and embedded projects.

Choose black or white, both with a vented metal design and a PWM fan mount for active cooling without blocking the ports.

The port cutouts keep every Raspberry Pi 5 interface accessible while the vented top helps move heat out of the enclosure.



Both finishes use a rigid metal housing with a clean matte look, built to protect the board during everyday use.

A larger 40×40×10 mm PWM fan and vented cover are designed to push more airflow than typical small-fan enclosures.

Test results indicate lower CPU temperatures under load when using the metal case with its cooling fan.


If you prefer Raspberry Pi’s official active cooler, the case can be used by removing the included fan and fitting the official unit.



PWM control lets the fan ramp automatically with temperature via the 4‑pin JST connection (power, ground, PWM, FG).


A built-in power button enables quick on/off control without needing to press pins or open the enclosure.


Precise cutouts provide access to USB, Ethernet, HDMI, power, camera, PCIe, TF card, and GPIO while the case is assembled.
