19" Racks
CP Cases ProRacks are the original 19” rack flight cases, as used by the legendary touring bands of the 1970s and 1980s. Our ProRacks combine the robust outer of a Finnish birch laminated plywood flight case, with the fixed rail or anti-vibration chassis to deliver a world class design of superior electronics flight case racks. Ideal for operations in the broadcast, music and telecoms industries, ProRacks provide the perfect transit solution for 19” electronic rack-mount equipment. Trusted for our high-quality construction, ProRacks are used throughout the world by touring professional musicians, as well as AV and PA hire companies, and proven with over 40 years of faithful service to discerning customers.

The traditionally built outer cases of our ProRacks are made from made from top grade, laminated birch plywood. This Finnish Birch Combi WBP (water boil proof) Plywood provides resistance to extreme weather and moisture conditions. Non-burr fibre edging is secured with machine driven bifurcated clench rivets for unbreakable joints, and giving a low profile rivet head that easily glides over abrasive and rough surfaces without wear or deterioration.
For added strength we employ cabinetmaking edge joints with traditional glue-and-pin construction. This gives the outer rack body rigidity and the impact-resistant robustness that has seen our ProCases and ProRacks through years of touring and continuous rough handling. For sizes of 16U and above, ProRack chassis are further strengthened with side stiffening plates to avoid torsional twist when supporting very heavy rack mounted payloads.
A suspended internal 19” chassis is calibrated to support equipment from vibration and impact shocks. The patented internal anti-vibration chassis is manufactured from pre-stressed steel and compliments the rigid outer body to give a cage-within-a-cage supported by elastomeric anti vibration mounts (AVMs). These can be calibrated to give the best optimised support and protection for the payload – whatever the weight and fragility. The AVMs are mounted on steel anchor plates that focus each individual AVM towards the centre of the payload mass – thereby ensuring transit protection against shock and vibe, regardless of the orientation of the flight case rack.
Choose from a range of options to create the individual specification that works best for your needs. This includes the application of your branding and colour choices. External surface options include hard wearing plastic or High Pressure laminates with edging choices of “non burr” vulcanised fibre or traditional aluminium angle edging.
