B&W Outdoor Cases Type 5500 – Divider system included, waterproof and dustproof (IP67)

The B&W Outdoor Case Type 5500 protects your gear on demanding backcountry expeditions or out on the open seas. It comes with a variable padded divider insert and provides a secure, weatherproof shell to keep equipment safe and dry in all weather conditions.

Designed for rugged use and easy handling

With three carry handles, the Type 5500 gives you flexible carrying options when moving heavy or bulky loads. The case shell is made of polypropylene, which delivers a sturdy exterior. In addition, the case is stackable, so you can organize multiple cases efficiently during transport or storage.

Interior protection and divider system

The case includes an insert with variable padded dividers. This divider system lets you adapt the interior layout to fit cameras, lenses and other equipment. Because the insert is padded, it cushions gear from shocks and vibrations during travel.

Weatherproof features and pressure compensation

The Type 5500 is strong, dustproof and waterproof with an IP67 certification. It also includes an automatic air pressure compensation valve that equalizes pressure differences—helpful during altitude changes or temperature shifts. The case remains temperature resistant from -30° up to +80° C.

Security and handling details

The case has two eyelets for padlocks so you can secure the lid when needed. A rubberized handle improves grip and comfort when carrying. For added versatility, optional accessories are available, including a carry strap, backpack system, lid pocket, mesh bag and panel frame.
