Sound Barrier SB16UTT 16U Touring Anti-Shock Rack Case — Captive Sliding Doors
SB16UTT Overview
The Sound Barrier SB16UTT is a 16U touring-grade anti-shock rack case built for audio engineers, system integrators, and touring companies who demand maximum protection for rack-mounted equipment in transit. The case is constructed from 12MM thick premium birch plywood housed within custom-made aluminum profiles, with aluminum-welded joints at all four upper and lower frame corners for structural integrity that outperforms traditional pull-stud chassis designs. The internal rack frame is built from 5MM thick iron plates secured to the housing with high-strength shock-absorbing glue, isolating rack-mounted gear from road vibration and impact. This case is purpose-built for touring productions, rental houses, and any application where fully loaded rack systems must survive repeated loading, transport, and deployment.
Front and rear captive pocket doors slide away cleanly without removal, keeping access fast and hardware contained, while Penn Elcom hardware throughout ensures proven road-worthy reliability across the entire assembly.
