The Pelican Protector Case uses an open cell core and solid wall construction, which is actually stronger and lighter than a solid core wall. Travel light with heavy protection. And you know it's a Pelican Case by the distinctive dual band top surface. Stainless steel pins are used for hinges and handles. The new Double-Throw latches are smarter and easier to open: it's the classic "C" clamp design with a secondary movement that works like a pry bar to start the release and offers plenty of leverage to open with a light pull.

The secret is the tongue-and-groove fit with Polymer o-ring acting as a waterproof seal. Also, the new Automatic Pressure Equalization Valve releases built-up air pressure while keeping water molecules out, resulting in a watertight case that is even easier to open.
