Aluminum Housing PGYTECH P-57C-020 for Insta360 X5 Camera, protective metal case

The PGYTECH Aluminum Housing P-57C-020 for Insta360 X5 camera is a lightweight metal protective case designed to shield the camera from mechanical damage and scratches while maintaining access to all controls and ports. It provides a durable exterior, integrated mounts for accessories and includes a silicone lens cover and wind-noise dampening foam to preserve audio clarity during motion.

Advantages

Constructed from aluminum alloy, the housing offers robust impact and scratch resistance with a low overall weight. Precise cutouts and full metal bezels allow uninterrupted use of buttons, battery compartment and microphone openings. Built-in expansion ports and compatibility with Insta360 quick-mounts and standard 1/4" mounts increase versatility. The package also includes a silicone lens cover and wind-noise foam for added protection and improved sound quality during windy or fast-moving situations.

Suitable for

• Outdoor action and adventure filming
• Motorcycling, cycling and driving captures where wind noise is a factor
• Use with tripods, mounts and accessory rigs requiring 1/4" threads or Insta360 quick mounts
• Situations needing extra protection from bumps and scratches

When it may not be suitable

The aluminum housing is not waterproof and does not replace a dedicated underwater housing; it should not be used for submersion. Its metal construction may slightly alter the camera's thermal behavior in prolonged high-temperature use or restrict access to internal components that require removal of the case for full servicing.

How to use

Slide the camera into the aluminum housing and align the cutouts with the camera's buttons, battery compartment and microphone openings. Secure the case according to the manufacturer's instructions and attach any required accessories via the side expansion ports, 1/4" mounts or Insta360 quick-mount interface. Fit the included silicone lens cover when the camera is not in use, and install wind-noise foam in microphone openings as needed to reduce ambient noise during motion.

What to consider before purchase

• Not waterproof—do not use for underwater recording
• Check that Insta360 X5 is your camera model
• May require case removal for battery changes or internal servicing

Usage recommendations

For best audio results when recording on moving vehicles, install the wind-noise foam in microphone openings and keep the silicone lens cover on when transporting the camera. Regularly check mount screws and accessory connections to maintain secure attachment during high-vibration activities.
