Extending its line of 51 cases, Pelican Products, manufacturer of advanced lighting systems and virtually indestructible cases, has introduced the 1170 Case.

Designed as watertight/crush-resistant armor for handheld electronics and any small, delicate items, the case sports a high-impact, heat and chemical resistant polymer shell that will stand up to some of the harshest conditions known to man.

As additional protection, the case features stainless steel hardware and double-throw latches that can stand up to 400 pounds of pull force, yet open with a light pull. The case's tongue-and-groove lid construction and polymer o-ring creates a watertight seal and its built-in, automatic pressure equalization valve keeps moisture out and makes it easier to open the case at any altitude.

With an MSRP of $57.95 with manually customizable Pick N Pluck foam, the 1170 Case is available in black, silver, orange, yellow, and desert tan. OD green is available by request. Like all Pelican products, the case is backed by a lifetime guarantee.
