Description

These oversized Protector cases provide generous interior capacity for bulky items that need rugged protection during storage, shipping, deployment, and demanding transport environments.

Each case is made with Pelican’s durable injection-molded polypropylene construction and features a watertight O-ring seal, automatic pressure equalization valve, stainless steel hardware, and strong exterior handles.

Pelican Protector cases have been designed to protect equipment of all kinds, no matter the size or shape. The Pick N Pluck Foam is shock-absorbent, pre-scored Foam in tiny cubes. The item is placed on the foam, outlined with chalk, and then the cubes around the item are removed to form a secure, protective cocoon.

PROTECT WHAT MATTERS WITH MILITARY GRADE PROTECTION

No matter the job, the Pelican Protector Case is the standard in offering your equipment the protection it needs and deserves.

SOLID CONSTRUCTION: The Pelican Protector Case uses an open cell core and solid wall construction, which is actually stronger and lighter than a solid core wall. Travel light with heavy protection.

DOUBLE-THROW LATCHES: Double-Throw latches are smarter and easier to open: it’s the classic C clamp design with a secondary movement that works like a pry bar to start the release and offers plenty of leverage to open with a light pull.

WATERTIGHT: The secret is the tongue-and-groove fit with a polymer o-ring acting as a waterproof seal. Also, our Automatic Pressure Equalization Valve releases built-up air pressure while keeping water molecules out, resulting in a watertight case that is easy to open.

TESTED: The Pelican Protector Case design is the result of multiple generations of refinement. This evolution is proven through submergence and other lab tests.

EASY RIDING: Stainless steel ball bearing wheels (on select cases) last longer and ride smoother. The nylon hub adjacent to the stainless steel resists heat resulting in less wear and tear on the polyurethane tire.

Transporting and Shipping Options
Oversized Package
Oversized Package refers to a case that is considered oversized by UPS and FedEx if the case has a length (longest side) exceeding 96 in. or has an overall size that exceeds 130 in. The formula used to determine the overall size is Length + Width x 2 + Height x 2. There is a shipping surcharge for oversized packages that will raise the price over the standard rate. A minimum weight of 90 lbs. would apply to the charge. Always check the carrier’s oversized package policy for exact limits.
Oversized Checked Baggage
Oversized Checked Baggage refers to cases that can be checked on the airlines but could incur oversize fees. Typically oversize fees can be applied to cases between 50-100 lbs and between 63-126 inches overall. Overall dimensions of the case are determined by adding the length, width and height together. Always check your airline’s specific policy, as size and weight limits can vary by carrier and route.
