Carried on expeditions across all seven continents, AluBox cases are the choice of serious overlanders, emergency services, and military logistics teams who need reliable protection without the weight penalty of steel or the fragility of plastic. Long, narrow, and deep — one of the most distinctive shapes in the lineup. Built for tall, narrow gear: precision rifles, antenna masts, survey equipment, or communications hardware that must be stored upright.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 163L (5.8 cu ft)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 46.46\" L × 14.96\" W × 15.75\" H (1180mm L × 380mm W × 400mm H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20.28 lbs (9.2 kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLoad Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 220 lbs (100 kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN AW-5754 (AlMg3) aluminum, 1mm wall thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandles:\u003c\/strong\u003e (2) Sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLatches:\u003c\/strong\u003e (2) Front\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e S163\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote: All listed dimensions include handles, latches, and hinges.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEN AW-5754 Marine-Grade Aluminum:\u003c\/strong\u003e The same alloy used in shipbuilding and food processing — non-reactive, non-hardening, and highly resistant to seawater corrosion and industrial atmospheres.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDust and Water Resistant:\u003c\/strong\u003e A rubber gasket seal keeps dust and water out — resistant to the elements but not submersible.
