Abstract

A fan module, applied to a server including a first joint portion, includes a fan body, a first metal casing, a second metal casing and a plastic handle. The fan body includes an outlet surface, an inlet surface opposite to the outer surface, a first lateral surface and a second lateral surface. The first and second lateral surfaces are located between the outlet surface and the inlet surface. The first metal casing includes an air-through wall located on the outlet surface or the inlet surface, a first lateral wall connected to the air-through wall and mounted on the first lateral surface, and a metal handle connected to the first lateral wall. The second metal casing includes a second lateral wall mounted on the second lateral surface. The plastic handle, mounted on the second lateral wall, includes a second joint portion, for being engaged with the first joint portion.
