Suspended Shock Mounted Rack Cases

For the most sensitive, most valuable gear you put on the road, nothing protects like full suspension. Our suspended shock-mounted rack cases hold a black powder-coated steel inner frame floated inside the outer shell on anti-vibration mounts, so impact and high-frequency vibration are absorbed before they ever reach your equipment. Built around the Penn Elcom R88XX frame with flanged dome mounts, this is the highest level of in-transit protection we make — engineered for servers, broadcast engineering racks, recording and measurement gear, and anything that simply cannot afford to be jolted. Part of our 19 inch Rack Mount Systems. 

Every suspended rack in this collection is hand-built in our Market Harborough workshop from European birch plywood with 10mm panel construction and a hardwearing hexaboard finish. The suspended steel frame mounts your kit to standard 19" rack units, front and rear, and the whole assembly rides isolated from the case body — by air, sea or road.

True suspension, not just padding

The difference is in the engineering. Rather than packing gear in foam, a suspended shock-mounted rack case decouples the entire rack frame from the outer case on dome-style anti-vibration mounts. The frame floats; shocks dissipate through the mounts instead of through your chassis. It's the choice when downtime isn't an option and the payload is irreplaceable.

A size for every rack

We build each height as its own product rather than burying you in variants. This collection covers standard 19" racks from 2U to 25U — choose the U height that matches your equipment:

  • 2U–6U suspended shock-mounted rack cases — sensitive interfaces, measurement and audio gear.
  • 8U–14U suspended shock-mounted rack cases — engineering, comms and control racks for touring and broadcast.
  • 16U–25U suspended shock-mounted rack cases — servers, data and large signal-processing systems.

Count your rack units, leave room for cable management and airflow, then size up. Not sure? Our team will spec it with you in minutes.

Need something bigger, deeper or non-standard?

Racks above 25U — 28U and beyond — along with extra-deep frames, twin-rack layouts and custom mounting are all built to order as a bespoke project. Tell us the equipment and the environment and we'll engineer the suspension around it. Call an expert on +44 (0) 1858 464878 to talk it through.

Standard on every suspended rack

  • Powder-coated steel inner frame on anti-vibration mounts — Penn Elcom R88XX with flanged dome mounts.
  • Full 19" front & rear racking — your kit mounted square and secure.
  • Birch ply, 10mm construction — UK-manufactured to the highest spec.
  • Industrial latches, recessed handles and heavy-duty castors — built for constant handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a suspended shock-mounted rack case?

A 19" rack case where the inner rack frame is mounted on anti-vibration mounts and floats inside the outer shell, isolating equipment from impact and vibration in transit.

Suspended vs foam shock-mounted — what's the difference?

Foam mounting floats an inner sleeve on closed-cell foam (Plastazote LD29) for cost-effective damping. Suspended mounting decouples a steel frame on dome mounts for the highest level of isolation.

What gear is it best for?

Servers, broadcast and engineering racks, recording, test and measurement equipment — anything sensitive, valuable or mission-critical.
