Pelican 1557AirNF Hard Carry Case with Liner, No Insert (Black)

Built for strength and portability, the black Pelican 1557AirNF Hard Carry Case is designed to be dustproof, fully watertight, and crushproof to protect your valuable gear against the harshest handling, shipping, and environmental conditions on the planet. This edition of the 1507Air comes lined, but without foam or other inserts, allowing you the freedom to completely customize the 17.3 x 13 x 9.8" interior to your specific needs and to your specific gear.

Your case is made of a super-light proprietary HPX2 polymer, with honeycomb structural elements, which is up to 40% lighter than most other Pelican polymers and has newly designed dual push-button latches that provide ease-of-use versus previous iterations. Case design features include an O-ring that seals it to an IP67-rating to be dust and waterproof, dual 5/16" (8mm) diameter stainless steel reinforced padlock holes, and a pressure relief valve. This valve regulates the internal pressure, keeping your gear and the case from getting crushed and allowing you to open the case without having to break a tough pressurized seal that may develop. A polycarbonate card holder may be placed on the front or side of the case.

Pelican 1557 Air Reviews

Large Format Carry Case

By Michel
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2022-12-22

This hard case is not cheap, but it is the best solution by far for large format photography equipment. It is durable, waterproof, and can handle rough situations while coddling your gear. The Trek Pak dividers are easy to configure and install and don't move around like softer dividers - essential for larger bodies and lenses.

question

Which Trekpak Insert Kit fits this case when purchasing the items seperately?
Asked by: Travis
Sorry, but for some reason Pelican, the exclusive distributor of TrekPak, does not sell the TrekPak for the 1557 separately. Here are all the TrekPak kits we sell. https://bhpho.to/2IQ72lr You migh find one that works for you.
