PROEL FOABSR6US - Force Polyethylene Case in 19" Rack Format 6U - Shallow Depth
The PROEL FOABSR6US is a professional-grade transport and protection solution designed specifically for low-profile audio equipment. Part of the acclaimed Force series, this flight case redefines equipment security thanks to its "Force Polyethylene" construction. This innovative material isn't standard plastic; it's an amalgam of carbon fiber-reinforced polymers that offers superior structural strength compared to traditional ABS cases, while maintaining an exceptionally light weight.
This particular model is the Shallow version, optimized with a usable depth of 208 mm . This makes it the smart choice for sound engineers and musicians who need to transport equipment that doesn't require the full depth of a standard rack, eliminating unnecessary bulk and simplifying logistics for tours and events. Its design includes fully removable front and rear panels, which incorporate handy zippered mesh pockets, ideal for storing cables, bodypack transmitters, or small tools, thus maximizing the usability of every inch of the case.
The safety of the mounted devices is ensured by a hermetic sealing system with rubber gaskets that protect against dust and moisture, as well as robust butterfly latches that secure the lids during even the most demanding transport. Its stackable design allows for the configuration of stable control towers in seconds, integrating seamlessly with other models in the Force series.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is the usable depth of this rack?
This model has a usable depth of 208 mm (from the front rail to the bottom of the rack body). It is crucial to verify that your equipment does not exceed this depth measurement.
-
Is it compatible with power amplifiers?
Generally not, unless they are very compact and short digital amplifiers. Traditional power amplifiers require standard depth racks (approx. 40-45 cm).
-
Is the material water-resistant?
The Polyethylene Force material is waterproof and weather-resistant, and the closure has gaskets, but the case is not submersible.
-
Can they be stacked with other Proel racks?
Yes, the Force series is designed with patterns on the top and bottom casing to facilitate safe stacking between units of the same family.
