Description
Gator G‑Pro‑2U‑13 Pro Series Deep Molded Audio Rack Case — a compact, rugged rack case designed for shallow rack-mount gear:
What It Is
A 2U shallow rack case in Gator’s Pro Series lineup, built to protect and transport small rack-mount equipment like signal processors, compact interfaces, patchbays, and effects units. It features a 13″ rack-able depth suitable for gear that doesn’t require full-depth 19″ cases.
Construction & Durability
-
Roto-molded polyethylene shell: Heavy-duty, nearly indestructible construction that resists impacts and wear during transport or gigging.
-
Made in the USA: Manufactured domestically with recycled materials.
-
Front & rear interlocking lids: Full-size removable covers with gasket seals help keep out dust and provide easy gear access.
-
Recessed twist latches: Penn-Elcom style latches are recessed to reduce snagging and provide secure closure.
-
Non-slip rubber feet: Keeps the case stable when set down on surfaces.
Usability & Features

2U rack space: Enough room for small prosumer or professional rack gear like effects units, mic preamps, and small processors.
