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
- Pelican cases are kept watertight through the use of a tongue and groove fit and a polymer o-ring.

Pelican 1300 Case with Foam for Camera (Silver) Reviews
20 of 26 people found the following review helpful OK, but with basic faults., By This review is from: Pelican 1200 Case with Foam for Camera (Black) (Camera) I have owned a Pelican case for years. I cannot figure out why the O-ring is in the lid, and so flops loose when one tries to close the case. We replace the ring every year with an official Pelican O-ring, and it is always the same. Gravity just drops the ring out. It usually takes several tries to get the thing closed.Second flaw is that the two snap closers are extremely tight in closing and in opening. I bang them with my fist to close them, and yank with all four fingers to get each one open. The sudden snap sends one's hand into sharp parts of the case, causing minor injuries (cuts). I really think that simple engineering could make a better design. There is no reason that the O-ring should not fit in place by its own friction. The boxes are mostly waterproof, but we tested ours several times, and found that some water did get in if the case was dropped into the water. The O-ring must be new every year, and must be well greased...

The latches would not snap securely and were loose so you could not be sure if the case was locked. I had purchased multiple Pelican cases in the past and this was not the norm, the cases have been excellent. I wrote Pelican a email and explained the defects to them, I have not heard back. I returned the case to Amazon and reordered another of the same type. I received that case today and it too is being returned because the "O" ring does not contact the base, it has the same defect as the first. I am very surprised and very disappointed. I am also surprised and disappointed that they did not answer my e-mail.I hope that they can get it together because in the past they made a excellent case. 7 of 8 people found the following review helpful Warning: Not as pictured, By shirokuma (Arctic Village, AK) - See all my reviews This review is from: Pelican 1500 Case with Foam for Camera (Black) (Camera) Just an FYI: The picture Amazon is showing with wheels and a handle is incorrect. The Pelican 1510 "Carry On Case" is the case they have pictured here.Pelican cases are great. We use them at the company I work at to ship computers around. They have never let us down. |
