FAQs

What are the exact internal dimensions of the rack space?

The internal dimensions for equipment mounting are 280mm wide (front rail to front rail), 185mm deep (front rail to rear lid), and 500mm height (between front and rear rails).

Does the flightcase come with rack screws?

No, the flightcase does not include rack screws. These are typically purchased separately based on the specific equipment being mounted.

What is the weight of the flightcase?

The flightcase weighs approximately 9kg.

Can I fit non-19 inch equipment inside?

While the internal space can accommodate other items, the primary mounting system is designed for standard 19-inch rack-mountable equipment.

How durable is the plywood construction?

The 9mm vinyl-laminated plywood is designed for significant durability, offering robust protection against impacts and the stresses of transport.

Are the lids completely detachable?

Yes, the front and rear lids are designed to be fully removable for easy access to your equipment.

What is the colour of the flightcase?

This model is black.

Troubleshooting

Lid difficult to remove or attach

Ensure no debris is obstructing the seals or latches. Check for any warping of the plywood, although this is rare with proper care.

Handle feels loose

Check if the rivets securing the handle are intact. If loose, professional repair may be required.

Equipment does not fit securely in rails

Verify that your equipment is a standard 19-inch rack unit and that you are using appropriate rack mounting screws.

Wood appears chipped or damaged

Minor chips can be touched up with black paint. Significant damage may compromise protection and warrant case replacement.

Setup: The flightcase is ready for use upon arrival. Ensure all latches and lid seals are functioning correctly. Equipment is mounted to the front fixing rails using standard rack screws (not included).

Compatibility: This case is designed for standard 19-inch rack-mountable audio equipment. Always check the internal dimensions (280mm x 185mm x 500mm for width, depth, height excluding lid space) against your equipment's dimensions before purchase.
