Description
Pelican 1450 Case (Black) with Pick ‘N Pluck Foam
The Pelican 1450 Case is a mid-sized, professional-grade protective solution designed to safeguard sensitive electronics, camera equipment, and industrial tools in the world’s most demanding environments. Part of the legendary Pelican Protector series, this case is celebrated for its unbreakable, watertight, and dustproof construction. Whether it’s being transported through a remote field location or stored in a rugged equipment truck, the 1450 provides a “vault-like” interior that ensures your gear remains pristine and functional, no matter the external conditions.
Legendary Protector Shell Engineering
The structural integrity of the 1450 comes from Pelican’s proprietary high-impact structural copolymer, utilizing an open-cell core and solid-wall design. This engineering approach provides a superior strength-to-weight ratio, allowing the case to absorb and dissipate kinetic energy from drops or heavy impacts that would shatter standard plastic cases. Reinforced with stainless steel hinge pins and hardware, the 1450 is designed to withstand crushing loads and extreme physical stress, making it a lifetime investment for professionals who operate in high-risk environments.
Precision Customization with Pick ‘N Pluck Foam
This model features a comprehensive three-piece foam set designed for total gear immobilization. The Pick ‘N Pluck system consists of a thick middle layer of pre-scored polyurethane cubes that allow you to manually customize the interior to the exact silhouette of your gear. By plucking out the cubes, you create a tailored, snug fit that prevents equipment from shifting or vibrating during transport. The set is supported by a solid foam base pad and a convoluted “egg-crate” lid foam, providing a complete 360-degree shock-absorption barrier.
Atmospheric Management and Waterproof Integrity
The Pelican 1450 is IP67-rated, ensuring it remains bone-dry even when submerged in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes. A high-performance neoprene O-ring gasket creates a hermetic seal against moisture, dust, and sand. To facilitate easy opening after flights or significant climate changes, the case includes an Automatic Pressure Equalization Valve. This valve balances internal air pressure while utilizing a hydrophobic membrane to block water molecules, ensuring that “vacuum lock” never prevents you from accessing your gear.
Professional Ergonomics and Security
Every aspect of the 1450 is built for comfortable, long-duration use. It features a large, rubber over-molded handle that provides a secure, cushioned grip even when the case is fully loaded. The double-throw latches provide massive closing leverage to maintain the seal under impact but remain easy to operate with a light touch. For added security, the case is equipped with stainless steel reinforced padlock hasps, providing an extra layer of protection against unauthorized access or theft while in transit or on set.
