Audibax FA51-6U - 19 Inch Polyethylene (PE) Flight Case Rack for Professional Audio Equipment

Audibax FA51-6U - 19 Inch Polyethylene (PE) Flight Case Rack for Professional Audio Equipment

The Audibax FA51-6U represents the evolution of professional audio equipment transport, combining advanced materials engineering with a functional design. Constructed from high-density polyethylene (PE), this flight case offers a superior alternative to traditional wooden crates, providing formidable structural strength with a significant weight reduction. Designed specifically to house standard 19-inch rack-mount equipment up to 6U high, it's the ultimate solution for touring musicians, rental companies, and technicians who demand reliability without compromising mobility.

Its intelligent design focuses not only on protection against physical impacts but also on simplifying daily logistics. Thanks to its fully removable front and rear covers, access to equipment connections and controls is immediate, allowing for quick setups on stage or in the studio. The textured surface and reinforced corners are designed to withstand the rigors of the road, ensuring that mixers, power amplifiers, signal processors, and wireless systems arrive at their destination in perfect working order.

Main Features

• Polyethylene (PE) Construction: The molded PE body offers superior shock absorption and corrosion resistance, while being much lighter than traditional plywood cases.
• Industrial Safety: Incorporates 2 high-quality butterfly-type closures on each lid, designed to withstand stress and prevent accidental openings during the busiest transport.
• Total Accessibility: It has removable front and rear covers, which facilitates ventilation of the equipment and access to the rear cabling without the need to disassemble the units.
• Ergonomics of Transport: Equipped with integrated and robust double handles that allow a firm and comfortable grip, distributing the weight to reduce fatigue when loading and unloading.
• Stackable Design: Reinforced ribs and corners are designed to fit perfectly with other units in the series, allowing for safe and stable stacking in warehouses or vans.
• Mounting Kit Included: Supplied with the necessary screw set for immediate installation of your equipment on the rails.

Benefits for the Professional

The Audibax FA51-6U transforms the logistics of any event. Its main advantage lies in its weight-to-strength ratio ; its lightweight design allows a single person to handle equipment that would require assistance in other types of enclosures. Furthermore, the PE material is inherently resistant to humidity and temperature changes, providing a thermal and physical shield for sensitive electronic components. The 455 mm usable depth ensures compatibility with the vast majority of power amplifiers and audio servers on the market.

Recommended Use Cases

• Orchestras and Bands on Tour: Ideal for protecting power stages and effects processors that are constantly traveling in cargo trucks.
• Mobile DJs: Perfect for setting up an "all-in-one" system with dual player, mixer and power unit, ready to plug and play.
• Sound Rental Companies: Its durability and stackability make it a profitable long-term asset, withstanding the usual wear and tear of rental.
• Temporary Installations: Excellent for trade fairs and congresses where it is necessary to set up technical control rooms quickly and aesthetically.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it compatible with any audio equipment?
Yes, it's compatible with any equipment that meets the 19-inch rack standard (industry standard width). You just need to make sure the equipment's depth doesn't exceed 455 mm and the overall height doesn't exceed 6 units (6U).

Is the material water-resistant?
Polyethylene (PE) is waterproof and provides excellent protection against splashes and ambient humidity (IP20 rating), although the case is not submersible due to the lid seals. It is perfect for protection in light rain during loading and unloading.

Can several cases of different sizes be stacked?
Yes, as long as they are from the same Audibax FA series, the design of the lids and bases usually allows for safe stacking, optimizing space during transport.

Does it include the screws to fix the devices?
Yes, the product includes a basic set of screws to start mounting your equipment on the rails as soon as you receive it.
