Pelican 1660 Case With Foam (Black)

Pelican, the renowned manufacturer of the world's toughest cases, has built a reputation for exceptional quality and durability over the past 30 years. The secret to their success lies in the meticulous design and construction of their products.

Pelican Protector Cases are crafted using Copolymer Polypropylene, featuring an open cell core and solid wall construction. This design makes the cases stronger and lighter than the competition. The distinctive "twin-ribbed" top surface is a hallmark of a genuine Pelican case, and stainless steel pins are utilized for the hinges and handles. The new Double-Throw latches are designed for easy opening, a notable improvement over previous models.

Pelican cases have been put through the most extreme conditions, and they have consistently proven their resilience. These cases have been thrown out of helicopters in Iraq, floated through frigid fjords in Norway, and even rolled over by SUVs in Tanzania, with only minor scratches to show for it. The contents inside remain unscathed, demonstrating the exceptional protective capabilities of these cases.

The key to the cases' water-resistance is the tongue and groove fit, coupled with a polymer o-ring that creates a watertight seal. The Automatic Pressure Equalization Valve further enhances the case's ability to maintain a watertight seal while allowing built-up air pressure to be released, making the cases even easier to open.

Pelican's attention to detail extends to the durability of the hardware as well. Stainless steel ball bearing wheels provide longer-lasting performance and smoother operation, while the nylon hub adjacent to the stainless steel is designed to resist heat, reducing wear and tear on the polyurethane wheel.

The Stainless steel hasp protectors and Double-Throw latches are Pelican exclusives, designed for added strength and easier operation. The classic "C" clamp design with a secondary movement acts as a pry bar, providing ample leverage to open the case with a light pull.

For those who require customization, Pelican offers the Pick N'Pluck foam interior, allowing users to tailor the case to their specific needs. The cases can withstand a wide range of temperatures, from a minimum of -40°F (-40°C) to a maximum of 210°F (99°C).

Pelican's commitment to quality extends to security features as well. Stainless steel reinforced padlock protectors provide added strength and protection against cutting and theft, giving users peace of mind when transporting valuable or sensitive equipment.

In conclusion, Pelican Protector Cases are the go-to choice for those who demand the toughest and most reliable protection for their gear, whether it's a large format camera or a life-saving medical device. With their unparalleled durability, water-resistance, and customization options, Pelican cases continue to set the standard in the industry.
