19" Rack Cases

The Industry Standard: 19" Rack Flight Cases

Built to standard 19" rack units, our rack cases take your rack-mounted equipment straight in and protect it through touring, transit and storage. Available from 3U upwards, each is hand-made in the UK with 9mm hexa-laminate panels, aluminium extrusions and Penn Elcom hardware. Add wheels, castors, or custom foam to suit your setup — or step up to a shock-mounted rack for sensitive electronics.

Rack equipment is the nerve centre of any professional setup — and it's exactly the kind of gear that can't afford a knock in transit. We build rack cases that take your rack-mounted equipment straight in and keep it protected wherever it travels.

Hand-made in our Market Harborough workshop since 1961, every Nomad rack case is built to standard rack units (U), using 9mm hexa-laminate panels, aircraft-grade aluminium extrusions, and Penn Elcom hardware. From compact racks for a couple of units up to large touring racks, and from standard builds through to foam shock-mounted systems for sensitive electronics, we engineer the case around your equipment and your logistics — not a fixed catalogue.

When you're deploying sound, lighting, IT, or communications gear, you need a protective case that doesn't just promise security—it delivers absolute compatibility. Our 19" Rack Flight Cases are the reliable, heavy-duty solution designed to house all your industry-standard rack equipment.

Built with precision and tour-readiness in mind, these are the cases that keep your vital electronics perfectly aligned and fully operational, no matter the road conditions.

Built to Standard Rack Units (U)

Our rack cases are built to standard 19" rack sizing, so your existing rackmounted equipment — amps, processors, power distribution, comms, control and audio gear — fits straight in. Tell us the number of U's you need and your depth requirements, and we build to fit your current setup. We build from 2U up to 40U+ and we can accommodate variable and extended depths for deeper equipment.

Standard vs Shock-Mounted Racks

Not all rack gear needs the same protection. For robust, everyday transport we build standard rack cases that take the knocks of touring and transit. For sensitive electronics — anything vibration-prone or mission-critical — our foam shock-mounted rack cases suspend the rack frame to absorb impact and road vibration, keeping delicate equipment isolated from the journey. We'll advise which is right for your kit. Check out our Foam Shock Mounted Racks

Custom Foam and Internal Fit

Beyond the rack rails, we fit cases out around how you actually work — cable management, accessory storage, lid space for leads and tools, and CNC-routed foam where it's needed. Check out our Custom Foam Inserts

Engineered for Seamless Integration

We focus on the small, critical details that make installation and daily use hassle-free:

• Double Punched Rack Rails: Your equipment seats perfectly onto double punched rack rails fitted directly to both the inside front and rear of the case. This ensures maximum stability and mounting flexibility for your units.

• Standardised Depth: The standard internal depth of 450mm provides ample room for most industry equipment, cable routing, and rear connections.
• Smart Spacing: Our rails are expertly fixed at approximately 20mm off the front edge. This smart spacing is essential, allowing you the option to easily integrate accessories like our R0855K rack shelf supports or other specialist hardware.

• These cases are the reliable standard for any setup that demands professional-grade protection and 19-inch rack compatibility.
