Pelican 1640-000-190 1640 Transport Case with Foam (Desert Tan)

Rugged Protection For Demanding Environments

The Pelican 1640 Transport Case with Foam is engineered to secure sensitive gear in the toughest conditions. This hard case is virtually indestructible, offering protection against water, dust, impact, chemicals, and corrosion. Professionals in photography, broadcasting, law enforcement, and the military trust this model for its uncompromising durability and reliable equipment protection.

Durable Construction That Withstands Abuse

Made from ultra-high impact structural copolymer, the Pelican 1640 combines strength with a lightweight core for easier handling. Its open-cell core with solid wall design ensures impact resistance without unnecessary bulk. The exterior is built to handle rough transport, whether on the ground, at sea, or in the air, keeping valuable contents secure under demanding conditions.

Watertight And Airtight Design

A 0.25" neoprene O-ring seal and secure ABS double-throw latches keep the Pelican 1640 completely watertight. The automatic purge valve equalizes internal pressure during altitude or temperature shifts, preventing vacuum lock while blocking moisture. With IP67 certification, this case can withstand immersion in water up to one meter for 30 minutes, ensuring maximum protection against the elements.

Customizable Foam Interior For Secure Storage

The 1640 comes equipped with a five-piece foam insert system designed for flexibility and protection. This includes three Pick 'N Pluck foam layers, a 1" base foam, and a convoluted lid foam. These customizable inserts allow users to create snug compartments for cameras, lenses, firearms, instruments, or any other delicate equipment, minimizing movement and impact damage during transit.

Easy Mobility And Comfortable Handling

Despite its large capacity, the Pelican 1640 is designed for portability. Two oversized side haul handles and a front haul handle provide secure grip options, while the retractable extension handle works seamlessly with the four polyurethane wheels. Stainless steel bearings in the wheels ensure smooth, quiet transport over varied surfaces, even with heavy loads.

Security Features For Added Protection

Stainless steel padlock protectors reinforce the case, safeguarding valuable contents from theft or tampering. The latches open easily when needed but lock securely for transit. These security measures, combined with the case’s rugged build, make the Pelican 1640 a trusted choice for transporting high-value equipment safely.

Certified And Backed For Life

The Pelican 1640 is NATO codified and tested to military standards, including Def Stan 81-41 and STANAG 4280. With its proven reliability and Pelican’s unconditional lifetime guarantee, this case offers long-term confidence for professionals who cannot risk compromised protection.
