Peli Air 1607 Photography Equipment Case

There are cases that carry your gear — and then there's the Peli Air 1607. Built for photographers, drone operators, field scientists, and everyone else who refuses to leave expensive equipment to chance, this deep-rolling hard case delivers Peli's full protection envelope at a weight that catches first-time owners off guard. Checked luggage on a transcontinental flight, strapped to the roof rack of an off-road vehicle, or stacked dockside at a dive resort — the 1607 handles it without drama.

40% Lighter, Zero Compromise

The shell is moulded from HPX²™ Polymer — Peli's proprietary super-lightweight material that keeps the case up to 40% lighter than comparable hard cases, with no reduction in structural rigidity or impact resistance. For frequent travellers who've been stung by airline overweight fees, that weight saving pays for itself over time.

Key Features

• Waterproof, crushproof, and dustproof — rated IP67 and MIL-SPEC certified, tested to the standards used by military logistics and emergency response teams.
• Waterproof O-ring seal combined with an automatic pressure equalization valve — the valve releases pressure build-up during altitude changes while preventing water entry.
• Press and Pull™ latches — one-hand operation, yet firm under impact, external pressure, and rough baggage handling.
• Quiet stainless-steel bearing wheels on a retractable extension trolley handle — rolls smoothly through airport terminals, rough pavement, and uneven terrain without rattling.
• Fold-down over-moulded carry handle for lifting and navigating tight spaces.
• Stainless steel padlock protectors for TSA-compatible locks, plus a built-in business card holder for quick identification at check-in and cargo collection.

Interior: Three Configurations

Choose the setup that matches your kit:

• No Foam — bare interior for custom-cut inserts, equipment in factory packaging, or gear that arrives in its own cases.
• Pick N Pluck™ Foam — pre-scored foam cubes you pull out by hand to create a precise, form-fitting bed for each item. No cutting tools needed, fully reversible if your kit changes.
• Padded Dividers — soft adjustable fabric panels ideal for photographers and videographers who reconfigure their layouts regularly between assignments.

The deep interior fits full-frame camera systems with lenses attached, cinema cameras, drone bodies, dive regulators, broadcast equipment, or scientific instruments — gear that has no business travelling in anything less robust.

Available Colours

Available in black, yellow, silver, and orange. The black shell is the professional standard; yellow and orange offer high-visibility identification on luggage carousels and crowded staging areas.

Warranty

Backed by Peli's limited lifetime guarantee. If the case fails under normal use, Peli repairs or replaces it — no receipt required, no conditions. The Peli Air 1607 is built to outlast the equipment inside it.
