Advantages

The polypropylene shell offers a robust, yet lightweight exterior that resists impact and environmental factors. The removable pre-cut sponge insert allows tailored protection for delicate items while the egg crate lid foam enhances shock absorption. The automatic air pressure compensation valve prevents vacuum build-up during altitude or temperature changes. The case is watertight, dustproof and stackable, and includes practical handling features such as a padded handle, transparent name plate and secure latches. A 30-year guarantee underscores long-term reliability.

Suitable for

How to use

Open the case and remove any protective film from the pre-cut sponge insert. Use the pre-scored sections of the SI insert to cut or pop out foam pieces that match the shape of your equipment for a snug fit. Place delicate items into the custom cavities and close the lid so the egg crate foam in the lid contacts the items for additional shock protection. Ensure the latches are securely fastened and the name plate is filled for identification. For transport, use the padded handle or attach the optional carrying strap (CS/500). When changing altitude or temperature, the automatic pressure compensation valve will equalize internal pressure.

Usage recommendations

For best protection, test-fit items after customizing the SI insert and re-check fit before each trip. Clean the case with a damp cloth and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to preserve the polypropylene shell. Use specified optional accessories (CS/500, LP/1000, PF/1000) for improved carrying convenience and organization.
