Protection Racket Hardware Bags
When it comes to protecting your valuable drum hardware, look no further than Protection Racket’s exceptional line of hardware bags. Bridging the gap between a hard case and a soft bag, these hardware bags are a testament to toughness, durability, and thoughtful design.
Crafted from ‘Racketex’, a high abrasion-resistant, waterproof polyester, these bags provide a robust shield against the rigours of travel. Filled with ‘Propadd’, a superior dual-density protective foam, your hardware is enveloped in a secure cocoon, ensuring it reaches its destination in pristine condition.
Available in various sizes to cater to drummers with setups ranging from compact Jazz kits to colossal tributes to Stone Henge with Tama stands, Protection Racket hardware bags cater to every drummer’s unique needs.
The construction features of these hardware bags speak to their quality:
- Heavy-duty nylon spiral chain zips ensure secure closure.
- Bonded nylon double stitching enhances overall durability.
- Webbing seams with a remarkable 1,500-kilo breaking strain, showcasing their robust build.
- Satin finished nickel-plated inter-locking steel zip pulleys for smooth operation.
- Neoprene-lined, foam-padded ‘Racketex’ handles offer maximum comfort during transportation.
- Larger hardware bags are equipped with ergonomic rubber handles for added convenience.
- Each bag includes luggage tags and size labels for easy identification.
- Created by surfer dudes in Cornwall, these bags reek of a coastal cool aesthetic!
Protection Racket hardware bags, while not as rigid as a Hardcase, stand out as the finest soft furnishings you can trust your stands with. The design, wide and not too high, ensures an even distribution of your hardware. The coffin-style opening facilitates easy access, while two webbing handles at either end make lifting into vehicles a breeze.
Internal straps within each hardware bag secure your hardware in transit, preventing any unwanted movement. While these hardware bags do not feature ‘Propile’ fleece lining, they boast the added protection of ‘Racketex’.
Beef it Up!
“There’s nowt like a bit o’ bully” as Jim Bowen used to say, and if you want to beef up your hardware bag experience, Protection Racket offer some of their hardware bags with new and improved features. Fancy wheels on your bag? Well how does a set of heavy-duty 4×4 wheels grab you? Very strong and durable, these castors will ensure smooth and wobble-free transportation for years to come. Hardware bags fitted with a retractable handle add to the ease of handling and manoeuvrability. Bags fitted with a standard 19″ x 7″ x 2″ zipped side-pocket provide additional storage and the biggest models can accommodate up to 8 cymbal stands, making them versatile and practical for drummers on the move.
This is how they introduced them back in NAMM…
If you don’t want the extra weight of a Hardcase, choose a Protection Racket hardware bag and give your drum hardware the Mr Softy treatment!
