Watertight protection for 17.3-inch laptops
The Pelican 1490 case shields notebooks up to 17.3 x 11 x 3.3 inches with an IP67-rated watertight seal and automatic pressure equalization valve. Double safety locking latches with keys secure the lid against impact. A comfortable rubber over-molded handle and stainless steel hardware complete the rugged, US-made construction.
Built for photographers and field professionals
This case suits users who transport sensitive camera gear and a laptop through harsh environments where water, dust, and crushing forces are real risks. The Pick 'N' Pluck foam lets you shape the interior to your exact kit. Buyers who do not need watertight mil-spec protection or who carry smaller devices without extra accessories will find the case larger than necessary.
IP67 rating and mil-spec certification
The defining specification is the IP67 rating backed by US/NATO military standards, confirming the case is waterproof, dustproof, and crushproof. An O-ring seal and automatic purge valve maintain the watertight barrier during pressure changes. If your workflow never exposes equipment to submersion or extreme conditions, this level of certified protection exceeds the requirement.
