Protection Racket Nutcase 16" x 16" Floor Tom Case
Finding a floor tom case that's genuinely protective without being heavy and awkward to carry is harder than it sounds. The Protection Racket Nutcase range is built around solving exactly that problem — bringing features refined in Protection Racket's professional Proline range down into an entry-level case that genuinely outperforms what you'd expect at the price.
The N16X16F is sized for a 16" x 16" floor tom shell, with internal dimensions of 18" x 17" to accommodate hardware fixtures, fittings and any suspended isolation mounting system your drum might be fitted with. The egg-shaped design of the tom Nutcases is a deliberate choice — it allows clearance for isolation mounting systems that standard rectangular cases can't accommodate cleanly.
Built to Last
The outer fabric is strong and abrasive resistant, and critically it doesn't stretch or shrink — meaning the case holds its shape and keeps its structural integrity over years of regular use rather than gradually deforming under load. Inside, a dense 20mm foam core provides serious impact resistance while keeping the overall weight of the case low. The interior is finished in 210-denier nylon, chosen specifically to resist rips and tears from the hardware and edges of the drum shell.
The zippers use brushed steel pulls — a detail that matters if you're using the case regularly, since cheap zippers are often the first thing to fail on a drum bag. The ergodynamic handles are comfortable and hardwearing, designed for the reality of carrying kit in and out of venues rather than just sitting on a shelf.
Who Is It For?
This is a strong choice for gigging drummers who need reliable, protective floor tom transport without the weight or cost of a full flightcase setup. It's equally well suited to students, teachers and players who are moving their kit between rehearsal spaces, studios and live venues on a regular basis. If you're looking for entry-level drum cases that don't feel entry-level in use, the Nutcase range is worth serious consideration.
