Rear rack recommendations, please



I need to replace the rear rack on my bike as the Axiom panniers I've had on it has damaged it greatly thru, I think, vibration. However, with a search online, I've discovered that the rack I have they no longer make. I actually don't care about it being Axiom. The rack is heavy duty, able to hold 50lbs max. My rear gear probably weighs at least 30lbs total. I would like to have some recommendations on sturdy racks that my Axiom 55 liter panniers will work with. I've attached photos here of the rack that I'm now using. I live on my bike and travel enough, so it needs to be a rack which will last a few years. Thanks for your positive input. One note: When I went to buy a rack last year and brought along a pannier to size, I noticed that not all racks have the same height/length from bottom eyelet/hole to top of rack. And I need a rack which is on the taller side as the 1/2" makes a difference.
