Protection Racket AAA 14x5.5" Rigid Snare Case

Protection Racket's AAA range represents a step forward in rigid snare case design, combining polycarbonate frame construction with the manufacturer's established protection technologies. The 14'' × 5.5'' model (A3011-00) houses internal dimensions of 17'' × 6½'', accounting for hardware and bearing edges. Built around Triple A-Plex™ foam–a lightweight advanced polymer core–these cases deliver impact resistance without excessive weight, crucial for touring musicians who move gear frequently.

Construction combines the polycarbonate frame with Protection Racket's tested inner and outer drum case components, creating what the manufacturer calls Rocket Foam™. The case features a 6'' × 4'' clear window pocket for quick kit identification, neoprene ergonomic handle for grip comfort during transport, and plastic piping edging for impact absorption at corners and edges. This combination addresses the cumulative wear from road handling–knocks, falls, and abrasion that accumulate across touring schedules.

The 14'' × 5.5'' format suits standard snare drums across most tuning ranges, with sufficient interior space to accommodate hardware without compression. The rigid construction prevents case collapse under stacking or pressure, a practical consideration for touring drummers using flight cases or truck transport where cases are often stowed vertically or under other equipment.
