Ultimate Gear Protection
Designed with independent shock isolation, this rack protects sensitive audio equipment from vibrations and impacts during transport, ensuring your gear remains safe and functional.
The Gator 12U Shock Audio Rack with Rubber Suspension is a rugged polyethylene flight-ready rack designed to protect sensitive audio hardware with independent shock isolation, secure steel rails and comprehensive ventilation for demanding professional environments.
Gator builds this rack with lightweight polyethylene that resists impact, moisture and rough handling. The rack rails use 7mm zinc-plated steel, which provides reliable strength for heavy studio and touring equipment. Engineers install and replace hardware easily thanks to the threaded field-replaceable design.
Independent rubber shock absorbers sit at each corner and isolate vibration and impact from movement or stage handling. The design protects valve processors, converters, interfaces and delicate circuitry from transport-related stress. Adjustable sliding supports on each interior side stabilise the gear layout and ensure a tight and secure fit for a wide range of rack gear depths.
Full 360-degree air ventilation surrounds the rack bays and keeps heat-generating equipment cool in continuous use. This airflow path supports long-term performance in mobile rigs, OB work, machine rooms and live engineering racks by preventing thermal build-up.
Heat-treated 10/32 rail bolts and washers grip firmly for secure mounting, while recessed side handles give a comfortable and stable lift. Locking lids provide secure closure in transit and fast access on site. The rack handles loads up to 200 lb, making it suitable for heavy multi-unit systems.
