Built for Transport
The SKB iSeries 1706-6 is an injection-moulded utility case made from ultra high-strength polypropylene copolymer resin. It measures 18.2 inches in length and weighs 4.70 lb. A gasket seal creates a water- and dust-tight barrier rated to IP67 and MIL-C-4150J, while an automatic pressure equalisation valve meets MIL-STD-648C.
Suits Field Use, Not Fixed Shelves
This case serves crews who move sensitive gear through wet, dusty or rough environments and need submersible protection with a lifetime warranty. It is less suited for buyers who only need lightweight desktop organisers or static archive boxes that never leave a climate-controlled room.
IP67 and MIL-C-4150J Submersible Seal
The gasket-sealed closure is tested to withstand immersion and dust ingress, meeting both IP67 and MIL-C-4150J standards. If your equipment must survive submersion or pressurised wash-downs, this rating is the deciding factor; if splash resistance is enough, a simpler container may do.

Questions about this item
Is the 18.2 inch length the external or internal measurement of the 3i-1706-6B-E?
The 18.2 inch figure is the external length of the case; the internal cavity is slightly smaller to allow for wall thickness and the gasket seal.
Will the automatic pressure equalization valve open during air travel?
The valve equalises internal pressure automatically during altitude changes while maintaining the IP67 water and dust seal.
Does the MIL-C-4150J rating guarantee the case survives a 67 metre submersion?
The MIL-C-4150J and IP67 ratings confirm water-tight performance under standard test depths, not a specific 67 metre rating.
