Description
SKB 6U Roto-Molded Shallow Rack Case
The re-designed Roto-molded Shallow Rack Cases meet the needs of musicians and pro audio/video engineers. The new design now has a full front and rear cover instead of a rear access panel for easy access. Both doors have a rubber gasket to keep water out of the case.
The Shallow Racks are roto-molded for strength and durability and feature a new exterior design with interlocking capabilities, recessed steel, Mil-Spec black twist latches, shock absorbing rubber feet and new heavy-duty flush handles. With the addition of rear rack rails and the new cover design, the depth on the new Roto–molded Shallow Racks has been extended to 10.7 in. from front to rear rail. Gear can now be mounted front and rear with the supplied rackmount clips.
The 1SKB-R6S provides 6U of shallow rack space for larger compact equipment configurations. With 10.7 in. rail-to-rail rack depth and durable roto-molded construction, it is built for users who need more rack capacity in a shorter-depth transport case.

Checked Baggage refers to cases that can be checked in on the airlines that are under 50 lbs. and under 62 in. overall or less would be considered standard size bags that would not incur an oversize fee.
