  • NANUK 963 Protective Case - 29" x 18.1" x 10.5"

    The NANUK 963 provides a substantial 29" x 18" x 10.6" of interior space within a lightweight NK-7 resin shell that weighs only 22.5 lb empty. This case is IP67 rated, ensuring protection against water ingress for up to 30 minutes when submerged at 1 meter, and is engineered to operate in temperatures from -67°F to 158°F. Because of its 32.5" x 21" x 12.3" exterior dimensions, this case is not certified for airline carry-on and is designed for checked baggage or ground transport.

    IP67 Rated Protection from -67°F to 158°F

    The NANUK 963's exterior is constructed from impact-resistant NK-7 resin, providing a rigid defense for sensitive astronomical equipment. Its IP67 rating signifies it is fully sealed against dust and sand and can withstand submersion in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. Five PowerClaw latches create a compressive seal that remains secure during transit, while the automatic pressure release valve equalizes pressure during altitude changes, preventing vacuum-lock.

    A 29" x 18" x 10.6" Adaptable Storage Volume

    With interior dimensions of 29" x 18" x 10.6", the NANUK 963 is built to hold large optical tube assemblies, complete camera and lens kits, or multiple pieces of scientific equipment. This model is available with several interior configurations to match your specific needs, including high-density cubed foam for custom-fit pockets or padded dividers for adjustable compartments. This adaptability allows you to organize and protect your gear without wasted space, regardless of its shape or size.

    Wheeled Transport for a 22.5 lb Case

    At an empty weight of 22.5 lb, a fully loaded 963 case requires a robust transport system. It incorporates polyurethane wheels designed to roll smoothly over rough terrain, from uneven pavement to dirt paths at a dark sky site. A one-handed retractable handle provides easy navigation through airports and venues, while three spring-loaded, soft-grip handles offer comfortable and secure lifting points for loading the case into a vehicle.

  • Is the NANUK 963 suitable for airline travel?

    The NANUK 963's exterior dimensions of 32.5" x 21" x 12.3" exceed standard airline carry-on limits. It is designed as a checked baggage solution. Its durable NK-7 resin construction and lockable hasps are built to withstand the rigors of baggage handling.

    What kind of astronomy equipment can I fit in the NANUK 963?

    The 29" x 18" x 10.6" interior is large enough for a mid-sized refractor or Schmidt-Cassegrain optical tube, a portable mount head, or a comprehensive imaging setup including a camera, filter wheel, guide scope, and cables. Always measure your equipment to ensure a proper fit.

    How waterproof is the NANUK 963 case?

    The case has an IP67 waterproof rating. This means it is certified to be completely dust-tight and can withstand being submerged in up to 1 meter (about 3.3 feet) of water for 30 minutes without leaking, offering excellent protection against rain, splashes, or accidental immersion.

    How does the NANUK 963 perform in extreme cold or heat?

    The NANUK 963 is designed to function within a temperature range of -67°F to 158°F (-55°C to 70°C). The NK-7 resin material is engineered to resist becoming brittle in extreme cold or deforming in high heat, ensuring the latches and shell remain functional.

    How do I transport a fully loaded NANUK 963 that weighs over 60 lbs?

    The case is designed for heavy loads. You would use the one-handed retractable handle to pull the case on its smooth-rolling polyurethane wheels. For lifting, the three soft-grip handles (one on top, two on the sides) allow for a secure, two-person lift if necessary.

    Can I lock the NANUK 963 case?

    Yes. The case features integrated padlockable hasps molded into the shell, allowing you to secure the contents with standard padlocks for shipping or storage. This is one of the key Lockable features of the case.
