Anatomy
- REINFORCED CORNERS AND EDGES – 15% to 20% thicker corners and edges for added impact protection.
- DOUBLE WALLED RIM FOR TONGUE-IN-GROOVE SEAL
Retains sealed after impact. Allows case to be splash and rain resistant. - RACK FRAMES – Made of either a strong lightweight extruded aluminum frame or steel frames depending on the case model. Frame holes are tapped with standard U.S. SAE or M6 metric holes.
- HANDLE WELLS – Recessed handle wells provide stacking strength.
- ELASTOMER SHOCK MOUNTS – These are installed on the four corners of the front and back of the rack frame.
– Lower payloads use eight shock mounts.
– Heavier payloads use 16 shock mounts, two on each corner of the frame.The elastomer shock itself plays a big role depending on the payload weight.

Fragility and Shock
“G” rating defines how fragile or sensitive the equipment is to shock and vibration.
- Rack Shock System
The rack shock system controls the shock impact on the rack frame. - Rack Sway Space
The “sway space” is the space around the rack frame inside the case that allows movement of the frame to avoid damage. - Shock Mounts
More sway space gives the shock more space to work with while decelerating the load.
