The Vertiv GL42UEX-80120W-MM-SC is a shock crate designed for the safe transport and handling of 42U rack enclosures with an 800mm wide by 1200mm deep footprint. If you're moving populated or unpopulated Vertiv EX series racks between facilities, staging areas, or data center floors, a properly fitted transit crate like this one is the difference between equipment arriving intact and arriving with damaged rail hardware, bent panels, or shifted internal components. The GL42UEX-80120W-MM-SC (often searched as GL42UEX 80120W MM SC) is matched to the specific external envelope of the 42U 800×1200 EX enclosure — meaning it isn't a generic crate adapted with foam; it's dimensioned for this chassis.
This crate is sized for Vertiv 42U rack enclosures with an 800mm × 1200mm footprint. Before ordering, verify your enclosure matches both the rack unit count (42U) and the external width and depth dimensions. A rack enclosure that is 800×1000mm or 600×1200mm will not seat correctly in this crate. The white finish matches standard Vertiv EX white-colorway enclosures, which matters for facilities that track equipment by color coding or need crate markings to remain legible against the shell.
Shock crates of this type are typically used in conjunction with standard pallet handling equipment. Ensure your loading dock and freight carrier can accommodate the combined footprint of the crate plus pallet base. For populated racks, follow Vertiv's rack loading guidelines for center-of-gravity limits before crating — a top-heavy 42U rack in transit is a liability regardless of crate quality. Pair this crate with appropriate rack accessories and internal bracing before sealing for shipment. If you're deploying multiple enclosures across sites, coordinating crate returns is worth planning — these are reusable assets, not single-use packaging.
Q: What rack enclosure dimensions does the GL42UEX-80120W-MM-SC fit?
A: This shock crate is sized for 42U Vertiv EX series rack enclosures with an 800mm wide by 1200mm deep footprint. Verify your enclosure matches both dimensions before ordering.
Q: Is the GL42UEX-80120W-MM-SC reusable?
A: Shock crates of this class are designed for repeated use across multiple transport cycles. Inspect the crate for structural damage after each use before relying on it for subsequent shipments.
Q: Why does the color (white) matter for this crate?
A: The white finish corresponds to Vertiv EX white-colorway enclosures, helping facilities maintain color-coded equipment tracking and keeping crate identification labels legible during staging and transit.
Q: Can this crate be used for a populated (loaded) rack?
A: This crate is designed for the 42U 800×1200 EX enclosure. Whether it's used populated or empty, follow Vertiv's published rack loading and center-of-gravity guidelines before crating to avoid instability during transport.
The GL42UEX-80120W-MM-SC is a purpose-matched transit crate for the Vertiv EX 42U enclosure in the 800×1200mm footprint — the larger of the two standard EX depths. That extra 200mm of depth relative to an 800×1000 chassis matters here: a crate dimensioned for the shallower variant won't provide the lateral support the deeper enclosure needs during road or air freight.

Deployment Considerations:
Best suited for facilities procuring or relocating Vertiv EX 42U 800×1200 white enclosures in bulk — multi-site data center rollouts where transit damage to even one rack represents significant replacement and redeployment cost.
