Lightest premium protector case
The Pelican 1637 Air Case is built from a proprietary HPX polymer that makes it up to 40 percent lighter than comparable polymer cases. Photographers and videographers who need rugged protection without excess weight can rely on its watertight, crushproof and dustproof construction. A built-in business card holder adds a simple organisational touch for travelling professionals.
Sustained protection in harsh environments
An automatic purge valve balances internal air pressure while keeping water and dust out during altitude or temperature changes. The case remains watertight, crushproof and dustproof over extended trips, so equipment stays secure through repeated loading, transport and exposure to the elements. Sturdy wheels and a light chassis reduce the effort of moving heavy gear across long distances.
Limits of the protective-case standard
The watertight seal and pressure-equalising valve are designed for surface-level environmental exposure, not prolonged submersion or extreme pressure differentials beyond normal travel conditions. Crushproof performance applies to typical stacking and impact scenarios rather than continuous heavy-load compression. Mobility depends on smooth surfaces; rough terrain can exceed the practical capability of the integrated wheels.
