Gator G-TOUR-14UCAST - 14U Wooden Rack Case with Wheels for 19" Equipment
The Gator G-TOUR-14UCAST is a professional 14U rack case from the G-Tour series, designed for transporting and protecting 19" audio equipment for touring, rental companies, theaters, and live sound setups. Constructed from 9mm plywood with a black laminate exterior and commercial-grade hardware, this flight case meets ATA specifications and is built to withstand the rigors of the road, including constant loading and unloading.
The interior offers standard 14U rack space with 3.2 mm thick steel front and rear rails, allowing for the secure mounting of power amplifiers, signal processors, wireless systems, interfaces, and other 19" equipment. The rack depth is approximately 44.5 cm without the top panel, with a rack depth to the rear panel of about 51.4 cm, providing ample room for most professional equipment. The approximate internal dimensions are 41.9 x 48.3 x 62.2 cm (L x W x H), while the external dimensions are approximately 65.4 x 54.6 x 68.6 cm, with an approximate weight of 33 kg.
The G-TOUR-14UCAST incorporates four fixed 4" casters (two with brakes), transforming the rack into a rolling module easily maneuverable between van, stage, and storage. Recessed red swivel locks, spring-loaded handles with rubber grips, reinforced spherical corner pieces, and an aluminum valance with a tongue-and-groove system complete a robust and reliable design, built for intensive professional use.

Capacity and organization in 14U: With 14 rack units and front and rear rails, it allows you to create complete racks of amplification, processing, signal distribution or wireless systems in a single module.
-
Integrated mobility: the four 4" wheels (with two brakes) turn the rack into a rolling cart, reducing the load effort and facilitating access to the equipment on stage and backstage.
-
Faster setups: with the equipment already rack-mounted, simply roll the flight case, remove the covers, connect power and signal, and the system is ready to work.
-
Durability in demanding environments: commercial hardware, recessed locks and aluminum valance ensure a long service life even in intensive tours and continuous rental.
-
Professional image: the black laminated finish and the G-Tour aesthetic convey seriousness and order, something highly valued in sound companies, production companies and corporate events.
Use cases
-
Amplifier and processing racks: to house power stages, speaker processors, equalizers, compressors and audio matrices.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of equipment can I mount on the G-TOUR-14UCAST?
Any standard 19" (48.3 cm) wide equipment that respects the available height of 14U and the approximate usable depth (around 44.5 cm without the cover and 51.4 cm to the back cover), such as power stages, processors, routers, wireless systems, etc.
Does it have rear rails in addition to front rails?
Yes, the case includes both front and rear rack rails, made of 3.2 mm steel, allowing you to secure the equipment on both sides and use additional rack trays or accessories.
Do the wheels come pre-installed and are they lockable?
The flightcase comes standard with four heavy-duty 4" fixed wheels, two of which include brakes to lock the rack in its working position.
Is it ready for intensive use on tours?
Yes. Its 9mm wood construction, commercial-grade hardware, recessed latches, reinforced corner protectors, and compliance with ATA-type specifications make it ideal for touring, professional rental, and daily stage use.
Does it offer shock absorption like an internally suspended rack?
It is a standard road-type wooden rack (not an internally suspended model), so the protection comes from the robustness of the casing, the hardware, and the correct mounting of the equipment on the rails.
Compatibility and assembly
- Standard 19" format (approx. 48.3 cm wide between rails).
- Usable height of 14U (approximately 62.2 cm).
- Sufficient rack depth for most mid-sized power stages and processors (more than 44 cm usable without the lid).
- Front and rear rails prepared for cage nuts or standard rack mounting systems.
- It is recommended to check the equipment measurements before installation, especially the chassis depth.
Transportation and handling
- Four heavy-duty 4" wheels, two with brakes, for easy rack movement.
- Side handles with spring and rubber grip for lifting the flight case between several people.
- Recessed twist latch type locks in red, easy to operate and protected against impacts.
- Reinforced spherical corner protectors that facilitate stacking and protect corners from impacts.
Care and maintenance
- Clean the laminate exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth; avoid abrasive products or strong solvents.
- Check screws, locks, handles and wheels periodically to ensure they are working properly.
- Avoid drops from heights or violent impacts to prolong the lifespan of the flight case and the mounted equipment.
- Store in dry, well-ventilated areas, away from excessive humidity, to prevent rust on hardware.
