SKB 3SKB-R916U24 16U Roto Shock Rack | Heavy-Duty 24-Inch Shock-Mounted Rack Case
Short Description:
The SKB 3SKB-R916U24 16U Roto Shock Rack is a heavy-duty shock-mounted rack case engineered to protect mission-critical rack-mounted electronics during transport, storage, and deployment. Featuring a 24-inch rack depth, integrated elastomer shock isolation system, removable front and rear lids, and rugged roto-molded construction, this professional rack case delivers outstanding protection for military, broadcast, telecommunications, aerospace, and industrial applications.
Product Overview
The SKB 3SKB-R916U24 16U Roto Shock Rack is designed to safeguard sensitive rack-mounted equipment from vibration, shock, dust, and demanding transport conditions. Its rugged roto-molded shell provides exceptional durability while the internal aluminum rack chassis and heavy-duty steel rack rails ensure reliable support for valuable electronic systems.
The innovative compound hinge system allows the front and rear lids to swing completely open or be removed in seconds for unrestricted equipment access. This design enables rapid deployment while maintaining excellent environmental sealing with fewer latches than conventional rack cases. The case can also be opened from both sides while stacked, improving accessibility in field operations.
Eight elastomer shock isolators protect installed equipment from vibration and impact while providing airflow around the rack chassis for improved heat dissipation. Slide-out removable casters, stainless steel field-replaceable locking latches, and integrated rear rack rails make this case an excellent solution for transporting servers, communications equipment, AV systems, and mission-critical electronics.
