Pelican Air Case Features

THE SCIENCE BEHIND STRENGTH AND LIGHTNESS
The Pelican™ Air case has been designed to cut weight without compromising durability. Pelican engineers have revolutionized the protector case by reducing structural waste while preserving their legendary standards of strength. In development for years, the design team challenged the status quo to "add lightness" to every detail.

Here are some important reasons why Pelican™ Air cases are both strong and light:

Molded from the next generation of Pelican’s lightweight HPX™ resin, a proprietary formula that rebounds without breaking
Honeycomb structural elements that are actually stronger than solid polymer material
Super-stiff "full box" sections are engineered to create hollow parts

UP TO THE TEST
It wouldn’t be a Pelican™ case if you couldn’t drop it, kick it and run over it – and the Pelican™ Air case is no different.

Drop-tested on concrete on all sides and corners with loads from six feet
Submerged for 30 minutes at a depth of one meter
Wheels are roll tested over 914 meters
28 lb. steel dart dropped on all sides from one meter

Checked Baggage refers to cases that can be checked in on the airlines that are under 50 lbs. and 62 in. overall or less and would be considered standard size bags that would not incur an oversize fee.
