Overview

Pelican Air 1646WF Wheeled Hard Case with Foam Insert (Black)

Made from lightweight HPX2 polymer, the black Pelican Air 1646WF Wheeled Hard Case protects sensitive gear during transport-even if your baggage handlers aren't as gentle as you'd prefer. This iteration of the Air 1646 comes with a pick-and-pluck foam insert that lets you customize the storage to your specific gear and a convoluted foam lid insert. Carry your case using one of the three overmolded handles or if it's too heavy, extend the pull handle and tow it behind you on its two low-profile, quiet-running wheels.
