Description
When your centerpiece is a massive 48" mirror ball, you can’t trust it to just any case. This 48" Mirror Ball Flight / Road Case is purpose-built to protect oversized disco balls during transport and storage. With full ATA-style construction, hotwire-cut foam, and heavy-duty casters, it’s ready for arenas, stadium tours, mega clubs, and high-end production environments where failure is not an option.
Key Features
- Engineered for 48" Mirror Balls: Interior is specifically sized for a 48" (1.2 m) mirror ball to limit movement and maximize protection.
- Touring-Grade ATA Construction: Robust plywood shell with black laminate and aluminum edging built for the rigors of constant transport.
- Reinforced Steel Corners: Heavy-duty ball corners absorb impacts and help protect the case from drops, bumps, and tight truck packs.
- Top-Load, Lift-Off Lid Design: Large removable lid allows full access to the mirror ball for fast and safe load-in/load-out.
- Hotwire-Cut Foam Interior: High-density, custom-contoured foam cradle supports the mirror ball evenly and guards against cracked tiles and surface damage.
- Recessed Hardware: Spring-loaded recessed handles and heavy-duty latches stay flush with the case to prevent snagging and damage.
- Heavy-Duty Swivel Casters: Industrial casters (typically two with brakes) make it possible for crew to roll this oversized case safely and efficiently.
- Stackable & Pallet-Ready: Flat, reinforced top and bottom surfaces support stacking with other road cases and secure palletization for trucking.
- Professional-Grade Protection: Designed for high-value assets in demanding environments – perfect for permanent installations that move only occasionally.
- Mirror Ball Sold Separately: This listing is for the road case only; 48" mirror ball is available as a separate purchase.
