Rocket back panel – R Cinquantotto
The R Cinquantotto is built to be seen – and if you set it up free-standing in the room, you see the back as well. A dented panel then reveals within seconds what the machine has been through.
This item is the back panel of the R Cinquantotto with the part number A019906928. It closes off the housing at the back.
When it is due
The panel is dented, scratched or tarnished at the edges – during transport, during servicing or over the years in place.
The screw holes are torn out, so the panel no longer sits flat and one edge sticks out.
After water damage, rust or limescale marks appear that can no longer be polished away.

Important for installation
Behind the back panel are the boiler, lines and electrics. Only remove it when the machine is disconnected from the mains, depressurised and cooled down.
The back panel is screwed on from the outside, but sits directly in front of live parts. We therefore recommend leaving the replacement to a qualified technician and deliberately do not provide step-by-step instructions.
When fitting it, take care with the edges: a warped panel will never sit cleanly again, and the screw holes cannot make up for it.

Who it is for
For anyone who wants their machine to look tidy again after years of use, and for workshops that replace only the panel after transport damage instead of the whole housing.
Also useful when the machine changes location and the back is suddenly visible – at an island counter in a café, for example.
What goes with it
For the R Cinquantotto we also stock the logo back panel, the chassis and the O-ring for the foot. All parts for the series are listed under Spare parts Rocket Cinquantotto.
From our workshop
When we replace a back panel in Bern or Zürich, we lay the screws down in the order they come out and at the end tighten them crosswise – first all by hand, then firmly one after the other. That way the panel does not warp and the gaps stay even. This is our workshop routine, not a manufacturer requirement.
Afterwards the machine runs empty for half an hour to warm up before we pull the first shot – Cozy Chocolate is our standard for this. More beans under Coffee beans.
Returns excluded
Spare parts are excluded from exchange and return. They are procured specifically for each order and cannot be resold once they have been installed or test-fitted on the machine. So before ordering, check the model, year of manufacture and serial number of your machine – or send us a quick message and we will check the fit together. Your rights in the case of defective goods remain unaffected.
Frequently asked questions
How does this back panel differ from the logo back panel?
This item is the rear panel with the number A019906928. We stock the logo back panel as a separate item; it carries the lettering.
Are screws or a logo included?
No. The panel is supplied on its own. We stock the logo and the fixing screws as separate items, where available.
What are the dimensions of the back panel?
Dimensions, sheet thickness and surface treatment are not stated in the documentation. We deliberately do not give any figures here that we cannot back up. Send us the serial number and we will check the fit.
Is this an electrical part?
No. The back panel is a housing panel. However, the boiler and electrics are behind it, so the replacement belongs in expert hands.
Can I look at the part in your showroom?
Yes. We are in Bern at Gerberngasse 44 and in Zürich at Hagenholzstrasse 50b. Bring the serial number of your machine and we will check the fit together at the counter.
