Combining strength and lightness, the 1535 Air Wheeled Carry-On Air Case with Pick-n-Pluck Foam 2017 in silver from Pelican is watertight, crushproof, dustproof, and optimized for travel. For travel by air, Pelican has aggregated available airline rules for maximum overhead and check-in dimensions with the goal of creating a case that conforms to their requirements. Of course, there will always be exceptions, so it's wise to contact your carrier before departing.
Your 1535 Air case is made of a super-light, proprietary HPX polymer (with honeycomb structural elements) that is up to 40% lighter than most other Pelican polymers. This confidence-inspiring design has been drop-tested on concrete on all sides and corners while loaded with gear. The case is also tested with a 28-pound steel dart dropped from a height of three feet, submerged for 30 minutes at a depth of 3.3 feet, and the wheels are roll tested over 1000 yards with loads at 5 mph.
The case has ABS double-throw latches that accept a user-supplied padlock, a watertight O-ring gasket, an automatic purge valve, and stainless steel hasp protectors. Users will appreciate the conic-curved lid shape, the rubber overmolded handles, and the extending trolley handle. For easy case identification, a removable polycarbonate card holder may be placed on the front or side of the case.
Organizing equipment is an easy and straightforward operation with the Pick-n-Pluck foam interior. Simply arrange the gear you wish to carry on the foam, try a variety of placements, and when you're satisfied, remove pieces of foam until items fit to your satisfaction.
