Gator's Shock Racks!

With today's ever-increasing amount of gear that contains disc drives and liquid crystal displays, the need for an affordable shock rack has become mandatory. Gator's new G-SHOCK deluxe shock rack cases which have a 20.5" rackable depth are molded from the incredibly durable high-density military grade Polyethylene.

This lightweight yet super strong material insures maximum protection at a weight you can easily handle. Gator uses rubber shock absorbers on all eight corners which assures a soft ride in every direction. The internal 19-inch rack frame has threaded front and rear rack rails. In addition, Gator has another exclusive - a moveable rear support system! This does away with needing a machine shop in your garage to make a rear support for your power amps or rack gear. Furthermore, those threaded rack rails are field replaceable. Exclusive to the Gator racks are locking front and rear lids.

Sloped side handles molded from Polyethylene, make these cases comfortable to carry when the racks are loaded and they are virtually indestructible! The ridges on the top and bottom make these cases universally stackable with both Gator racks and those of other manufacturers who construct their product in accordance with E.I.A. specifications. Gator G-SHOCK racks have established a new price level in shock racks with a superior shock system.

  • 16 Rack Space
  • Rail to Rail: 16-3/4"
  • Total Rackable Space: 19"

Rated 4.5/5

good quality, does what it should

Bottom line is it's excellent. Only reason for giving it a 4.5 is that I wish it had wheels. That would blow me away. That's the only downside. Otherwise, it's lightweight, durable, and offers a good amount of space around screw holes. The rear rack mount is amazingly helpful too (I attached an extra Furman power supply in the back and might put in a patch panel too.) I have no hesitation recommending this!

Oops - they did it again

I love the weight of this rack compared to other brands and models. That said, I almost didn't buy another Gator case in this line because of the ridiculous hinge mount where the bottom of the lid attaches.

Apparently, the same engineer that designed that also designed the rear support backstraps. I appreciate that this rack has them, but the bolts where they attach to the rack frame are so bulky that you cannot put full depth gear (like a drawer or shelf) in the bottom or top space unless the straps are slide "all" the way back. The problem with that is that the backstraps can't slide past the shock bumpers without some surgery.

I'm also not sure why they would not add wheels by default or have a more stable option than a skateboard with flimsy straps that eat up the bottom handle.

I own a ton of Gator stuff. I just wish they would real world test this line of racks. Have them call me, I would be happy to beta test for them as long as they fixed the small but incredibly annoying issues.
