Product Description
Pelican Protector Cases are made with Copolymer Polypropylene, using an open cell core and solid wall construction, which is stronger and lighter that the completion. You can tell its a Pelican case by the distinctive "twin-ribbed" top surface. Stainless steel pins are used for hinges and handles. The new Double-Throw latches are much easier to open.
- Pelican cases are kept watertight through the use of a tongue and groove fit and a polymer o-ring.
- Pelican cases come standard with an Automatic Pressure Equalization Valve which releases built up air pressure while keeping water out.
- Pelican's Pick N'Pluck foam lets you customize the interior.
- Stainless steel reinforced padlock protectors
- Single folding front handle with no-slip overmolded cushion grip
- Pelican cases are kept watertight through the use of a tongue and groove fit and a polymer o-ring.

Pelican 1400 Case with Foam for Camera (Black) Reviews
41 of 44 people found the following review helpful This review is from: Pelican 1400 Case with Foam for Camera (Black) (Camera) I wanted to take my camera equipment with me on an Ozark canoe float weekend, but needed a sturdy waterproof case to protect it against bumps and (especially) water. I ordered this case, and have been completely satisfied. I had no trouble customizing the foam padding to accommodate my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi, a 100mm macro lens, a 18-55mm zoom lens, a 75-300mm zoom lens, a couple of spare batteries, two watches, and my car keys for this trip! The fully loaded case floated high in the water when I tested it. The latches took a fair amount of effort to open and close, but this was actually pretty reassuring when risking expensive equipment on the water. It opened and closed easily enough for me to manage while sitting in a canoe on a moving river without losing my paddle or my fishing rod. All of my camera equipment stayed dry and undamaged after spending two full days on the river. Had my canoe overturned, I have no doubt that my equipment would have been fine. That said,...

It works great keeping my expensive equipment safe. This thing is shock proof and waterproof.This price is also a great selling point. After I bought it on Amazon, I saw this in the store for twice as much! Only down side it the latching system. It can be very hard to latch sometimes. I also get pinched by the latches sometimes. I guess thats how you know it water-tight. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Pelican 1400 Case w/Foam (Yellow) (Camera) When I read the Pelican case was plastic, I thought it would be OK but not as good as aluminum. WRONG! This case shell is very tough and the latches are super secure. Also the Pick N Pluck foam is easy to configure to whatever you want to protect. It took me only 20 minutes to make neat pockets for half a dozen items.I bought it to protect a delicate (expensive) measuring instrument. That instrument's maker sells a hard case for 3 times what the Pelican case costs and (IMHO) isn't as tough. There's gotta be a lesson there somewhere. |
