## Description

Available in 2U, 3U, 4U, and 6U sizes, SKB Shallow Racks are roto-molded of Polyethylene LLDPE for extra strength and durability. The exteriors feature SKB's recognizable bar design that signifies the rack unit size on the front and rear lids. Molded bars on top and bottom also provide interlocking capabilities allowing you to easily and securely stack them with SKB's Standard Roto Racks and Roto Rolling Racks, making transport even more convenient and secure. Lids include rubber gasket seals to keep water out. Other standard features include front and rear steel threaded rails and rack screws 10-32 thread, recessed steel Mil-Spec twist latches, flush carry handles, and non-slip rubber feet. All Shallow Racks are 10.7 deep from front rail to rear rail.

Review: Absolutely Worth the Extra Money! - The SKB is not the cheapest rack case by a longshot but this is a really nice, lightweight case. Hardware in the form of the necessary screws and washers are provided. The rack holes are nicely threaded and the alignment is nearly exact. I had no problem with holes not lining up when mounting my hardware. I like that the case is sturdy. It is not floppy when empty. The lids fit perfectly and seal well. The latches are metal and appear to be of good quality. I am very pleased with the rack. I had to install a shelf as the two distribution boxes, and router that are part of my setup were not designed to be mounted in a rack. The distro boxes fit tightly and I secured them with a Velcro strap. I used heavy duty 3M Velcro-like material to secure the router. Overall, I am really pleased. I may swap positions of the mixer and the power conditioner from the pictures but that is me. This is an excellent rack case. I could have gotten one for $100 less but I am glad I spent the money and bought this one.
Review: Great buy - Great for my needs and nice and strong yet lightweight.

Great for my needs and nice and strong yet lightweight.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It is rugged, relatively lightweight and purdy!
*by J***M on September 20, 2019*

I bought this as a means to carry ham radio gear in sort of a portable, ready to go station for emergency communications. It is not a common rack case used for this purpose. Most my ham radio buddies use a competitor product. I get ALOT of compliments whenever I whip this baby out. It is elegant, sleek and sturdy. It holds my ham radio gear well, and the seal adds an extra protection against moisture (although NOT weather or water proof). I am very happy with it. Oh, and customer service is superb too!
