Unbreakable Protection for Professional Gear
The Pelican 1620 Watertight Hard Case shields cameras, lenses, audio equipment and musical instruments from water, dust and crushing forces. Its Ultra High Impact copolymer body resists chemicals and corrosion while an automatic pressure valve equalises altitude changes. The case floats in salt water with a 200 lb load. Desert Tan finish suits outdoor work.
Wheels and Latches Built for Transit
Two-inch hard rubber wheels and a retractable extension handle let you roll heavy kits across tarmac or gravel without lifting. Double Throw latches open easily yet stay locked under vibration or impact. Stainless steel hardware and integrated padlock protectors deter tampering. No tools are required to configure the cubed foam interior for a custom fit.
200 lb Buoyancy Rating Decides Suitability
The 200 lb (90.7 kg) salt-water flotation limit is the single figure that tells you if this case matches your load. Heavier kits will sink; lighter kits stay afloat if dropped overboard. If your packed weight exceeds that threshold, you need a larger Pelican model. The 6.4 mm neoprene O-ring and purge valve maintain the watertight seal at any depth.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the 1620 case seals correctly after I load my gear?
Close the lid, snap both Double Throw latches, and press the Automatic Pressure Equalization Valve button; the 6.4 mm neoprene O-ring will compress and the valve will click, showing the watertight seal is active.
What ships inside the 1620 case and what must I supply myself?
The case arrives with the cubed foam interior pre-installed, plus the retractable extension handle and 2-inch hard rubber wheels already mounted; you only need to provide your own cameras, lenses or other equipment to place inside the foam.
Which capacity of the 1620 should I choose for a kit weighing up to 200 lbs?
The single 1620 model is rated to float in salt water with a 200 lb (90.7 kg) load, so this one size covers any kit within that weight limit.
