What's the difference between Protector, Storm, and Air?
Pelican Protector cases are moulded from ultra high-impact polypropylene, the original range. Storm cases use HPX® resin and feature Press & Pull™ latches, making them lighter at the same size. Pelican Air cases use HPX²® resin and are up to 40% lighter than equivalent Protectors. All three are IP67 waterproof, MIL-STD-810 certified, and covered by Pelican's Lifetime Guarantee.
Are Pelican cases actually waterproof? What does IP67 mean?
Yes. All Protector, Storm, and Air cases are IP67 rated: fully dustproof and submersible in 1 metre of water for 30 minutes. This is achieved through a continuous silicone O-ring gasket and an automatic pressure equalization valve that balances internal air pressure without allowing water ingress.
Can you fit custom foam inserts into Pelican cases?
Yes. This is one of our specialties. We design precision CNC-cut foam inserts engineered around your specific equipment. Send us your gear or sample and we'll design a custom foam layout that prevents movement, absorbs shock, and looks professional.
Do Pelican cases come with a warranty?
Every Protector, Storm, and Air case is backed by Pelican's Lifetime Guarantee of Excellence. If it breaks under normal use, Pelican repairs or replaces it, forever. As an Authorised Pelican Dealer, Protectapack handles warranty claims locally so you're not stuck dealing with overseas distributors.
Which Pelican cases work as airline carry-on?
The Pelican 1510 Protector and 1535 Air are both designed to meet most international carry-on size restrictions and are TSA-compliant. Always check current airline requirements before travel.
How do I choose the right size case?
Measure your largest item (L × W × D) and add roughly 25–35mm clearance on each side for foam walls. Match that to Pelican's internal dimensions. Call us on (03) 9720 5300 and we'll help you pick the right model, range, and insert configuration.
