  • NANUK 938 Protective Case - 21.5" x 12.5" x 11.6"

    The NANUK 938 offers substantial protection for sensitive equipment in a wheeled form factor weighing just 14.7 lb (6.7 kg) empty. Its lightweight NK-7 resin shell is IP67 rated, ensuring it remains dustproof and waterproof, while the material is rated for a temperature range from -67°F to 158°F.

    IP67 Waterproofing and -67°F Resilience in an NK-7 Resin Shell

    The case's primary defense is its shell, molded from lightweight NK-7 resin that provides impact resistance without excessive weight. This material is certified with an IP67 rating, guaranteeing the case is fully sealed against dust ingress and can be submerged in water. The operational temperature range of -67°F to 158°F ensures your equipment is protected from extreme cold storage to hot vehicle interiors.

    Dual PowerClaw Latches for Fail-Safe Security

    Security is handled by NANUK's dual PowerClaw latching system, which uses a two-stage closing mechanism to prevent accidental opening during transit or from impact. The case is also engineered with an integrated bezel system, allowing for the installation of custom instrument panels without drilling, which preserves the IP67 waterproof seal. An automatic pressure release valve equalizes pressure during air travel or altitude changes.

    Wheeled Transport: Navigating a 14.7 lb Case with Ease

    Despite its large capacity, the NANUK 938 is designed for mobility, starting with its 14.7 lb empty weight. It features durable polyurethane wheels that handle rough surfaces smoothly and a one-handed retractable handle for easy navigation through airports and venues. For lifting, three soft-grip handles with stainless steel hardware provide secure and comfortable carry points.

    NANUK 938 vs. 935: Maximum Capacity vs. Airline Carry-On

    The NANUK 935's primary advantage is its compliance with most airline carry-on size restrictions, making it ideal for essential gear you cannot check. The NANUK 938 is significantly larger, offering much more internal volume for bulkier items like telescope mounts, multiple camera bodies with long lenses, or extensive industrial equipment that would be checked as baggage anyway. Choose the 935 for air travel where gear must stay with you; choose the 938 for maximum protected volume when checking your equipment is the plan.

  • What kind of equipment is the NANUK 938 designed to protect?

    The NANUK 938 is ideal for a wide range of sensitive equipment, including photographic and video gear, audio equipment, portable telescope mounts, industrial tools, and medical devices. Its large interior volume is suitable for items that won't fit in smaller, carry-on-sized cases.

    How does the NANUK 938's IP67 rating protect my gear?

    The IP67 rating signifies that the NANUK 938 is completely dust-tight and can be submerged in up to 1 meter of water for 30 minutes without leaking. This ensures your equipment is safe from rain, splashes, and accidental immersion, making it suitable for field use in harsh weather conditions.

    Can I fly with the NANUK 938 case?

    Yes, but due to its size, the NANUK 938 must be checked as baggage and does not meet airline carry-on size limitations. It features an automatic pressure relief valve to handle air pressure changes in the cargo hold, and its rugged construction is designed to withstand the rigors of baggage handling.

    What is the benefit of the NANUK 938's NK-7 resin material?

    The lightweight NK-7 resin offers a high degree of impact protection while keeping the case's empty weight down to 14.7 lb. This proprietary material is shock-absorbent, UV-resistant, and can withstand extreme temperatures from -67°F to 158°F, ensuring the case won't become brittle in the cold or warp in the heat.

    I need to transport a Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer GTi mount. Is the NANUK 938 a good fit?

    Yes, the NANUK 938 is an excellent choice for a portable mount like the Star Adventurer GTi. Its large interior provides ample room for the mount head, counterweight shaft, counterweights, and other accessories like a battery pack and cables, keeping the entire system protected in a single, easy-to-transport case.

    Can the NANUK 938 handle being left in a car in Arizona during the summer?

    Absolutely. The NANUK 938 is rated for a maximum temperature of 158°F (70°C). This makes it more than capable of protecting its contents from the extreme heat that can build up inside a vehicle during a hot day, preventing damage to sensitive electronics or optics.
