Choose the Pelican 1600 for a large, flat case you carry by hand; the Pelican 1650 for the biggest kit in a wheeled case one person can roll; and the Pelican 1750 for long items such as rifles, tripods and survey poles. All three are Protector cases with a watertight seal, a pressure purge valve and double-throw latches. The difference is shape and mobility.
| Model | Approx. interior (in) | Wheels | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pelican 1600 | 21.4 x 16.5 x 7.9 | No | Camera kits, instruments, EMS gear, tools |
| Pelican 1650 | 28.6 x 17.4 x 10.6 | Yes, with pull handle | Large production kits, drones, test systems |
| Pelican 1750 | 50.0 x 13.5 x 5.3 | Yes | Rifles, tripods, light stands, long instruments |
Dimensions are approximate. Always confirm interior sizes on the product page before buying foam or planning a layout.
The 1600 is wide and relatively shallow, with handles on two sides so two people can lift a heavy load. It is popular for camera and lighting kits, field instruments and medical gear, and a 1600 EMS version is also available.
The 1650 adds polyurethane wheels and an extendable handle to a deeper, longer interior. It is the pick when one person has to move a big kit through airports, job sites or venues.
The 1750 is built for long items. Hunters and shooters use it for scoped rifles, and production and survey crews use it for tripods, stands and poles. If you are flying with firearms, read our TSA firearm travel guide and hard gun case buying guide.
Measure the longest item
Anything over about 28 inches long points to the 1750.
Weigh the full kit
If the loaded case is heavy and one person moves it, choose the wheeled 1650.
Think about storage
The 1600 is shallow and stacks well on shelves and in vehicles.
Plan the foam
Custom-cut foam outlasts pick-and-pluck for gear that travels often.
Still deciding? Browse all large Pelican cases or Pelican rolling cases, or compare against the lighter Pelican Air line.
Does the Pelican 1600 have wheels?
No. The 1600 is a hand-carry case with handles. Choose the 1650 for a wheeled case with a pull handle.
Is the Pelican 1650 airline checkable?
It can be checked, but it is a large case. Loaded weight and size may trigger oversize or overweight fees, so check your airline’s limits.
Will a scoped rifle fit in a Pelican 1750?
The 1750 has roughly 50 inches of interior length, which fits most scoped rifles. Measure your rifle with the scope mounted first.
Can I replace the foam in these cases?
Yes. Replacement foam sets and pick-and-pluck inserts are available, and AllCases can cut custom foam to your gear.
AllCases carries the full Pelican Protector lineup and designs custom foam for every model, shipping nationwide from Oldsmar, FL. Shop Pelican cases or ask for help choosing.
