Solidsteel S5-2

Solid Aluminum Poles Mean Higher Mass, Eliminated Resonance, Greater Stability, and More
Modular in design, S5 Series racks utilize dual-isolated MDF shelves and non-welded large diameter aluminum poles. Aluminum is lighter than steel, immensely strong, non-magnetic, and an excellent damping material. By eliminating welding from the equation, S5 Series racks achieve greater isolation and eliminate resonances that develop in the hollows of welded posts. Unwanted energy and vibrations simply cannot seep into your rack. The aluminum poles also offer excellent weight handling, vastly greater stability, and, since the shelves cannot resonate the poles, enhanced isolation for each component. The entire rack is spike-supported and includes floor protectors.
Pioneering Anti-Vibration System Means Every Component on Every Shelf Is Completely Isolated
While the S5 Series does many things well, it excels in supplying some of the best cost-no-object individual isolation in the industry. Each main structural shelf on every S5 sustains a second shelf that rests on four adjustable Solidsteel cones that are placed into cone-cups inset on the main shelf. This technique results in reference-class isolation as well as significantly increased total shelf mass. Each shelf is not only decoupled from the other but the most resonant part of the shelf (the center) is effectively removed. Air- and floor-borne vibrations basically become foreign entities.
