Rackmount Cases have evolved from bulky wooden racks to lightweight, ergonomic, molded plastic rack systems. Since electronic components differ in size and depth, it is necessary to have a wide variety of sizes to meet individual requirements; 2U – 19U racks are available in stock sizes. The height of Rackmount Cases is measured in units (U). The E.I.A. has set the spacing of rack units at 1 space = 1.75” = 1U.
Everyone is aware that “Fragile This End Up” does not ensure protection during shipping. An added insurance policy is to choose a Shock Rack System Case. The newest generation of these shock-absorbing cases use elastomeric shock absorbers on all eight corners. These revolutionary shocks are designed to control the effects of shock and vibration by floating a frame on three axes. The sway space around the internal frame provides natural air conditioning…critical for delicate electronic equipment.
Need a rack system with a 24" depth from front to rear rail? Have a unique requirement for a 4" deep lid? Our SKB Roto Shock Racks offer the solution. They provide ultimate protection for the most demanding environments. They feature a compound hinge system that allows the lid to swing out and completely lay flat against the main body of the case. Also, all hardware is field replaceable. Go lid-less – with an effortless lifting motion remove the lid and reinstall with the same ease in seconds. This allows for rapid deployment in an up-right configuration. This system stacks securely with the wheels on or off. This revolutionary design is the only shock rack that will open front and back while stacked. This new generation of shock racks meets MIL-SPEC sealing characteristics with significantly fewer latches than competitive products while offering a better case and a substantial cost savings.
