Rugged wheeled protection
The Pelican 1560 is a watertight hard case built from high-impact polymer with an automatic purge valve, a silicone O-ring lid seal, over-moulded rubber handles and stainless steel hardware. It arrives without foam so photographers and videographers can configure the interior precisely for their own kit. A retractable extension handle and sturdy wheels make heavy loads manageable on location or through airports.
Replaces soft bags and non-wheeled cases
Hard-shell cases without wheels force you to carry every kilogram, while soft bags cannot match the crush resistance or the watertight seal this case provides. The jump is worth it when gear must survive checked baggage, rough terrain or extreme temperature swings and you need to move it alone without a trolley.
Suits travelling creators with heavy kits
Photographers and filmmakers who fly with multiple bodies, lenses and accessories will appreciate the customisable empty interior and the roll-aboard convenience. Buyers who want a lightweight everyday carry bag or a compact case for a single mirrorless setup should look at smaller, softer options instead.

Questions about this item
Does the 1560 case have an automatic purge valve to equalize air pressure?
Yes, the case is designed with an automatic purge valve that equalizes air pressure while keeping water out.
How is the watertight seal maintained on the 1560 lid?
A silicone O-ring in the lid creates the watertight seal; keep it clean and lightly lubricated with silicone grease so grit does not compromise the seal.
What part of the 1560 will need replacement after extended use?
The silicone O-ring and purge valve are the primary maintenance items; inspect them regularly and replace if they show cracking, flattening or loss of elasticity.
