STI STI-6552 Weather Gasket for Widebody Keypad Protector
Overview
The STI-6552 is a weather gasket engineered to seal widebody keypad protector assemblies against environmental ingress. It mounts between the protective frame and the device to block moisture, dust, and salt spray — the main culprits behind premature corrosion and failure of outdoor access control hardware. Install this gasket when your keypad sits in direct rain, coastal spray, or semi-exposed mounting locations where environmental protection is non-negotiable.
Compatibility
The STI-6552 is designed for STI widebody keypad protector systems operating at 9VDC. Verify compatibility with your specific keypad model during procurement; this gasket is a replacement or upgrade seal for existing widebody protector frames and does not function independently. It works in conjunction with STI's protective cover hardware.
Installation Notes
Position the weather gasket over the device before securing the protector frame. The gasket sits between the frame and the mounting surface, creating a weathertight seal. Use the four fixing holes already present in your widebody protector frame; no additional drilling is required if the frame is already mounted. For cable entry holes not in use, blank them off to prevent moisture intrusion. Installation requires only standard hand tools and takes minutes — no specialized equipment needed.
