Description
Pelican 1400 Case (Black) with Pick ‘N Pluck Foam
The Pelican 1400 Case is a compact, ultra-rugged transport solution designed to safeguard small-to-mid-sized sensitive equipment in the most punishing environments. Part of the legendary Pelican Protector series, this case is the go-to choice for professionals needing to secure handheld electronics, high-end optics, or critical field instruments. Engineered to be virtually indestructible, the 1400 provides a watertight, crushproof, and dustproof environment that ensures your gear remains functional and pristine, whether it’s stored in a marine vessel, a cargo plane, or a rugged equipment truck.
Legendary Protector Shell Engineering
The structural integrity of the 1400 is derived from Pelican’s proprietary high-impact structural copolymer, featuring an open-cell core and solid-wall design. This specialized construction provides a superior strength-to-weight ratio, allowing the case to absorb and dissipate massive kinetic energy from impacts and heavy drops that would shatter standard plastic cases. Reinforced with stainless steel hinge pins and hardware, the shell is designed to withstand crushing loads and extreme physical stress, making it a lifetime investment for professionals in the field.
Customizable Pick ‘N Pluck Foam Interior
This model comes equipped with a comprehensive three-piece foam set, headlined by the classic Pick ‘N Pluck system. The interior consists of a thick layer of pre-scored polyurethane cubes that allow you to manually customize the cavity to the exact silhouette of your equipment. This ensures a “glove-like” fit that prevents internal movement and provides 360-degree shock absorption. The set is completed by a convoluted “egg-crate” lid foam and a solid base pad, providing total protection against vibration and incidental shock.
Hermetic Seal and Pressure Management
The Pelican 1400 is IP67-rated, meaning it is completely dust-tight and can be submerged in water up to one meter for 30 minutes without a single drop reaching the interior. A high-performance 0.25″ neoprene O-ring gasket creates a perfect hermetic seal against moisture, sand, and dust. To facilitate easy opening after significant changes in altitude or temperature, the case includes an Automatic Pressure Equalization Valve. This valve balances internal air pressure while utilizing a hydrophobic membrane to block water molecules, preventing “vacuum lock” and ensuring the case is always accessible.
Professional Ergonomics and Security
Every detail of the 1400 is optimized for reliable field use. It features Pelican’s iconic double-throw latches, which provide massive closing leverage to maintain the seal under impact while remaining easy to open with a light pull. For manual carry, the case includes a large, rubber over-molded handle that provides a secure and comfortable grip even in wet conditions. For added security, the case features stainless steel reinforced padlock hasps, providing an extra layer of protection against unauthorized access or theft while in transit or on-site.
