Know before you buy
No, this specific foam set is precision-engineered exclusively for the Pelican 1535 Air case. It will not provide a secure fit for other case models due to the specific dimensions of the 1535 Air interior.
The base layer is pre-scored into small, removable cubes. You can easily pull these cubes out by hand to create a custom cavity that matches the exact shape of your equipment, ensuring a snug and secure fit.
The set includes a 2.03-inch thick eggcrate foam lid insert, a 3.75-inch thick Pick-n-Pluck base layer for your gear, and a 1.44-inch thick padded bottom layer to provide a shock-absorbent foundation.
Once you pluck the foam cubes to fit a specific item, the shape is permanent. If you change your gear, you would typically need to purchase a new foam set to ensure your equipment remains properly supported.
Yes, the combination of the eggcrate lid and the dense base layer is designed to cradle sensitive items and minimize movement during transit. It is a standard solution for protecting cameras, lenses, and other delicate electronics during travel.
