Overview of the NANUK 980 Case with Cubed Foam | 980S-010

NANUK 980 Protective Case with Cubed Foam, Black | MPN 980S-010

The NANUK 980 Case with Cubed Foam is a mid-size, long protective case built to keep valuable equipment secure during transport, storage, and hard use. This model is identified by MPN 980S-010 and uses a crushproof NK-7 resin shell designed to handle impact and continuous vibration. You get a long interior footprint without stepping up to an extra-long case, which makes it a practical pick for sensitive gear that still needs room to breathe.

Images show a rigid, ribbed exterior for stable stacking, plus four PowerClaw latches that clamp the lid tight to help prevent accidental opening. You also get an oversized, spring-loaded carry handle for comfortable carry when the case is loaded.

Inside, the included cubed foam lets you fit your gear precisely. The lid foam helps control movement during travel. NANUK also includes an automatic pressure release valve to reduce vacuum lock after altitude or temperature changes, so you can open the case without a fight.

The NANUK 980 is commonly used by law enforcement, first responders, military teams, industrial crews, and field techs who need reliable protection in tough conditions.
