Pelican 1170,WL/WF,SILVER

Moving sensitive electronics across rough sites demands a container that survives drops, water ingress and dust clouds without adding bulk. The Pelican 1170 answers that need for survey crews, drone operators and field technicians who carry GPS units, radio handsets or compact camera kits between vehicles and exposed work zones. Its compact footprint fits inside a ute tub or helicopter cargo pod while still shielding the gear that keeps a job running.

Every pelican case in the Protector line uses an open-cell core with solid wall construction that absorbs impact rather than transferring it to the contents. The 1170 continues that design with a double-throw latch system that seals tight under vibration yet releases with one hand while wearing gloves. An automatic pressure equalisation valve balances internal pressure during altitude changes or temperature swings, preventing vacuum lock without letting moisture penetrate. Stainless steel hardware resists corrosion on coastal or mine sites, and the moulded-in hinge pins eliminate a common failure point on lesser boxes. Inside, the lid organiser and optional Pick N Pluck foam let a technician configure compartments for specific instruments, reducing rattle and speeding pack-out at shift end.

The case carries an IP67 rating for submersion protection and meets military spec for transit drop testing. That level of sealing suits flood-prone construction pads, offshore platforms and dusty haul roads where equipment reliability determines whether a crew stays productive.
