PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The 1730 heavy-duty transport case from Pelican is as heavy duty as they come watertight, crush proof and dust proof, this case is made with an open cell core and solid wall design, so it is extremely strong but also lightweight for its size. The 1730 features an extra-deep stackable design and easy-open double throw latches and can roll on its strong polyurethane wheels with stainless steel bearings. All of this and an O-ring seal, automatic pressure equalization valve and stainless steel Hardware and padlock protectors make the Pelican case the King of the cases. FROM THE MANUFACTURER FROM THE MANUFACTURER ANATOMY OF A PELICAN CASE ULTIMATE EQUIPMENT PROTECTION For over 30 years Pelican has built a reputation for manufacturing the toughest cases in the world. As a matter of fact, we invented the category. Over these years we've seen our cases used for some fairly crazy activities...and important ones too. Pelican Cases have been thrown out of helicopters in Iraq, floated through frigid fjords in Norway and rolled over by SUVs in Tanzania. With only a few scratches to show on the outside, contents inside are left unscathed. These are minor details for major bragging rights. And that is really what it's all about. Getting your gear from point A to point B in the condition it's meant to be in: intact and functional. Because it might contain a large format camera that will shoot next month's magazine cover or a heart defibrillator that could save a person's life, you can't put a price on it. STRONGER BY DESIGN Pelican Cases are made with a proprietary combination of homo co-polymers, using an open cell core and solid wall construction, which is stronger and lighter than a solid core wall. Stainless steel pins are used in hinges and handles. WATERTIGHT The secret is the tongue and groove fit with a polymer o-ring acting as a waterproof seal. COOL UNDER PRESSURE 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. EASY ROLLER Stainless steel ball bearing wheels last longer and ride smoother. The nylon hub adjacent to the stainless steel is made to resist heat. The result is less wear and tear on the polyurethane wheel. DOUBLE-THROW LATCHES Stainless steel hasp protectors are a Pelican exclusive. The 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. NAMEPLATE Custom engraved nameplates are available for a nominal fee. REINFORCED PADLOCK PROTECTORS Stainless steel reinforced padlock protectors provide added strength and extra security against cutting and theft.

An absolute beast

This thing is a beast, and shows exactly why Pelican dominates the market. Sturdy shell, heavy duty wheels, big durable handles, and high quality customizable foam. The latches have metal reinforced slots for locks, so nobody is cracking this thing open without extreme effort. Couldn’t find a single thing not to like if I tried.

Heavy case, but otherwise perfect.

Wonderfully designed case with wheels to make moving it a one man job. The case is fairly heavy (see description for exact weight) and can be a hassle to move up stairs or across terrain where wheels cannot be used. This makes moving it a two man job, especially if it has equipment weighing more than 10 or 20 lbs inside. It is too bulky to carry single-handed and anyone who does it may run the risk of injury. There is a reason they show forklifts moving it in the promotional videos. I do not recommend taking this as luggage on a flight - consider a lighter, smaller (possibly carry-on) model unless you are hauling large equipment that ABSOLUTELY requires this level of protection. These things are designed to be on pallets in C-130's, not necessarily to be hauled around commercial airports. This thing has kept moisture out of it in the toughest of humid conditions in various portions of the North and Middle Georgia terrain. Not once have I had any issues with humidity when changing environments. With that said, however, I do recommend the desiccation kit if you are using it in very humid conditions, as condensation may be an issue. I personally haven't had this problem storing it outdoors for long periods, but I have not had to open the case in outdoor humidity over maybe 50% due to the limited times I check it throughout the year. So I defer to others on this issue. The case is sturdy enough for me to stand on it without it giving way in the slightest. The promotional videos show a truck running over it and, after my experience with dropping it, standing on it, etc, I can believe the fact that it may be able to withstand that. This thing will probably outlast me by a few millenia. Haha. Overall, it's a dang fine case that truly is military grade. I use this to store my most valuable items that are sensitive to the environment and I am seriously contemplating buying a few more for the other valuables that I need to put in long term storage. With these cases, you can literally bury them in a desert and not have issues.

The case is 5 Stars out of 5. The foam ... not so much for heavy loads.

The case is 5 stars out of 5. The foam ... not so much for heavy loads. I should have purchased Kaizen foam for this. CONTENTS: - Celestron CGX German Equatorial Mount - Celestron Tripod Legs - Celestron Counter Weights - Counterweight Shaft - Various odds and ends (cables control pad etc.) Sizing is perfect for this. This is a large box and HEAVY once loaded. But it is a beauty! I do not expect the Pelican Pluck foam to last very long for these heavy loads and wow was it expensive. I will cut up some Kaizen foam (about 25 wild bucks a sheet) when the time comes. NOTE: I had to cutoff about 2.75" of each outer tube tripod leg, about 2.25" of each inner leg, remove the tripod foot tips with a hand held torch (just heat the cut off tube and pull off from the tips .. the glue will give to the heat.) This was a simple procedure. I sanded the cut offs with an orbital sander. Ohh and this case was purchased because it is the largest that will qualify as oversized luggage through the airlines. Hence the tripod surgery.

Rugged and great for frequent shipments

This is the third Pelican case of this size we have bought to use for shipping trade show supplies to/from events where we exhibit. Very sturdy and works great for frequent shipments. One of the two we purchased about 18 months ago had a handle break off from frequent use. We purchased this one to replace the one with the broken handle. Foam inserts are very handy and work well. We customized one to fit around our tv monitor and it protects it well while in transit. Latches open/close easily and there is a place to insert a travel lock to secure contents while in transit. Very rugged case. Even though the handle broke on one of our previous cases, I still decided to purchase another one of the same brand for its replacement. A little pricey but well worth it.

Blemished item is absolutely fine

This case was over $150 off because it was returned in good condition. The case arrived pretty much perfect with one scratch on the cover that was purely cosmetic. Doesn’t change function of durability. Try to get one of these on Amazon Warehouse deals, great value.

Foam does not encompass wheel molds.

To begin, Pelican makes fantastic cases, and this won't be an exception for the majority of consumers. HOWEVER, a pretty critical design flaw keeps this model, and likely all models with wheels, a case I can use. In the photo attached the solid bottom layer and the bottom "pull and pluck" layer are shown. The case is molded to suit the wheels obviously. However, the foam does not cover the mold entirely. As a result, fragile items will be left with no support. As mentioned likely not a major defect to most consumers, but for storing a telescope, renders the case unusable. Four stars because the case is still very good for most uses just not for mine. Great case, I'll just have to choose a different model.

The case is sturdy and all the clips work great

The pelican 1730 case is above and beyond what I expected when I ordered the product. During my time in the military I have had long and rough travels, all of our equipment is stored in these exact cases. I knew I needed a case of this caliber to protect my electronics in my soon to be move. The foam is extractable to fit whatever you may need in. The case is sturdy and all the clips work great. The delivery aspect was just as expected in a nice large cardboard box to provide a scratch free product to the door step. Over all 5/5 stars.

La mejor

Justo lo que necesitaba, con lo enorme que es cupo todo mi equipo, con la espuma pre-cortada es muy fácil personalizarlo dependiendo las necesidades para finalizar tiene un diseño super resistente. La recomendaría sin dudarlo.
