About SKB

SKB’s unique styling, use of the highest quality materials and engineering expertise are the result of many years of research and development by the principle owners of the company. Today, Dave Sanderson and Steve Kottman run SKB Corporation's more than 500 employees in 3 manufacturing facilities around the clock, in order to meet global demand. SKB manufactures cases for military, industrial and commercial industries.

• SKB Cases are manufactured of ultra-high molecular
  Polyethylene. This unique material was originally specified by
  the military for use in weapons cases, due to the fact that it
  is impervious to solvents, fuels and toxic liquids. This material is essentially indestructible, molds easily under heat, and forms an "impenetrable shield", protecting whatever it contains.
• SKB utilizes aluminum valance material for its strength
  and lightweight characteristics on all closures, with a special
  "slot" for a custom fitted Neoprene gasket that assists in
  sealing out moisture. Valance bending is done in
  house to assure a perfect fit.
• Rack mount cases utilize aluminum rack frames, and include
  specially designed mounting hardware for the installation of equipment. The Shockrack interior rack frame is a proprietary
  design with both front and rear rack rails, and an exclusive
  shock-spring mechanism engineered by SKB. The shock-spring
  concept originated from a missile carrying case SKB built for
  the military.
• All riveting on SKB cases utilizes steel backing plates to
  prevent pulling through the plastic material. This attention to detail is one of many factors that make SKB cases superior to
  all others.
• Handles, wheels, D-rings, exterior feet, cam-action locking
  latches and butterfly clamps are heavy-duty, and are covered under the exclusive SKB Lifetime Warranty, unless abused.
  Some handles and latches are manufactured by SKB from
  plastic "regrind". Plus SKB has their own casting facility for
  making latches and hardware.
