help Pelican 1040 Micro Case FAQ

What can actually fit inside a Pelican 1040 Micro Case?

Its interior is approximately 6.5 by 3.87 by 1.75 inches. It can hold filters, memory cards, batteries, a small recorder, or similarly compact equipment, but many camera bodies and flashes are too thick.

Is the Pelican 1040 safe to take kayaking or hiking?

The 1040 carries an IP67 rating when correctly closed, so it is built to resist dust and temporary immersion. It is suitable for wet outdoor use, although valuables should be checked for fit and the gasket kept clean.

Does the Pelican 1040 come with pick-and-pluck foam?

Standard 1040 configurations commonly use a rubber liner rather than a deep block of pick-and-pluck foam. The liner provides basic cushioning and can be removed for cleaning or to gain a little space.

Should I buy the Pelican 1040 or the deeper 1050?

The 1040 is only about 1.75 inches deep internally, while the 1050 provides substantially more depth. The 1040 suits thin accessories; the 1050 is more practical for bulkier electronics.
