Peli Ruck Case R60
For a while now I’ve been posting a lot of photos of my Peli 1650 Protector case on social media, because they have become an integral part of our life here at Muddy Towers. Another Peli product that that has remained in constant use is my R60 Ruck Case, so much so, I’ve got myself another.
Available in three sizes - R20, R40 and R60, the Ruck case has a rubberised exoskeleton and an ABS/PC outer shell that is designed to be dropped, thrown around, and even submerged. Yes, submerged. Peli have designed the Ruck to offer your contents protection from mud, dust, snow and water, and with an IP68 rating it can be dunked down to two meters for up to 30 minutes.
Have I mentioned they are crush proof, and like all other Peli products have a lifetime guarantee?
Open it up via the huge one-piece clasp, and on the inside of the lid there is a sturdy rubber webbing that hooks onto all four corners, handy for keeping things secure.
In the base you have a removable divider tray with a MOLLE style loop system with three velcro straps that let you customise your gear stowage, as well as a cable routing hole for your mobile phone or Go-Pro. The inside of both the base and lid has a cushioned lining for extra protection.
Weighing in at just 1.1kg the external dimensions of the R60 are: 283 x 174 x 99 mm and internal 226 x 136 x 75 mm.
Over the years my old R60 has kept electrical and photography equipment safe, spare camera batteries, chargers, Go-Pros, as well as multitools. My new one will either be for a variety of fire starter kits, or water purification and survival kits, depending on our adventures.
