Short Description:
The Pelican™ 0550 Protector Transport Case is an extra-large heavy-duty waterproof transport case engineered for transporting oversized equipment in military, industrial, aerospace, and government environments. Featuring over 11 cubic feet of storage capacity, reinforced honeycomb construction, dual automatic pressure equalization valves, and forklift-compatible handling, this professional-grade transport case provides exceptional protection for high-value equipment in demanding operations.
Product Overview
The Pelican 0550 Protector Transport Case is designed for professionals who need maximum storage capacity and uncompromising equipment protection. Built in the USA using Pelican's proven open-cell core with solid wall construction, this transport case offers outstanding durability while remaining lighter than traditional solid-wall designs.
Its reinforced honeycomb lid and deck provide exceptional structural strength, allowing secure stacking during transportation and storage while supporting heavy equipment loads. Dual integrated automatic pressure equalization valves prevent vacuum lock during altitude changes while keeping moisture out, making the case ideal for global shipping, military logistics, and industrial field operations.
Designed for versatile transportation, the 0550 can be moved by forklift, optional caster wheels, or by hand using its ergonomic double-wide grip handles. Locking metal lid stays securely hold the lid open during loading and unloading, while stainless steel hardware, double-throw latches, and an IP55-rated O-ring seal help protect valuable equipment against rain, dust, and harsh working conditions.
