About the Pelican 1550 Protector 18x14x7" Hard Carrying Case
The Pelican 1550 Protector case is a versatile, medium-sized hard carrying case built to safeguard valuable and sensitive equipment during transport and storage in demanding conditions. Engineered with Pelican's signature durability, its construction utilizes solid polypropylene for impact resistance, a reinforced aluminum frame for structural integrity, and a watertight, airtight O-ring seal to provide IP67-rated protection against dust, water, and contaminants. This makes the case a trusted choice for professionals in fields such as photography, electronics, medical, and public safety who require reliable equipment protection in the field.
A key functional feature is the automatic pressure equalization valve, which prevents vacuum lock by balancing internal and external air pressure during altitude or temperature changes, ensuring the case remains easy to open. The interior includes customizable foam inserts that can be precision-plucked to create a perfect, shock-absorbing fit for specific tools, instruments, or gear. The case also incorporates a comfortable, fold-down handle for easy carrying and robust double-throw latches that secure the lid with a positive, tactile closure.
With its manageable size yet generous capacity, the Pelican 1550 is ideal for transporting camera kits, drones, test meters, or tactical equipment. It includes integrated padlock protectors for added security and is backed by Pelican's unconditional lifetime guarantee. Combining rugged protection, thoughtful design, and practical utility, this case is a go-to solution for organizing and shielding critical gear from the hazards of travel and harsh environments.
