19-inch equipment that needs to be moved often or protected from harsh treatment can be housed in a ''[[road case]]'' approved by the [[Air Transport Association of America]] (ATA), sometimes also referred to as a ''flight case''. Road cases typically have plywood sides laminated with [[polyvinyl chloride]] (PVC), extruded aluminum edges, steel corners, handles, and latches. Larger cases typically have wheels for easy transport. Road case racks come in different heights based on the 1U standard and different depths. Non-isolated cases simply mount 19-inch mounting posts inside the case. To protect equipment from shock and vibration road rack cases use an inner and outer case. These cases can be isolated by thick layers of foam or may use spring-loaded shock mounting.  Touring musicians, theatrical productions and sound and light companies use road case racks.<ref name="ATARoadCase">{{cite web
