UK Cases are made from high-impact ABS plastic which is extremely tough and resists scratches, dents and corrosion. For modifications, ABS is machineable and can be solvent welded. Standard colors include black, jet grey and yellow. Custom colors and materials are available with sufficient order quantities. The Main Seal is made from a resilient blue silicone O-ring and can easily withstand submersion in 1 meter meter of water as well as seal out dust and many corrosive gasses. A pressure relief valve is provided on the cases to relieve pressure differentials from changes in atmospheric pressure.



Stainless steel twist-lock latches and spring loaded steel handles are standard on Transport Cases and optional on Dry Cases. They are designed to meet mil specs. Molded ABS latches and padded handles are standard on Dry Cases and Dry Boxes. They are designed for maximum corrosion protection and requirements nonmagnetic cases. Hinge pins and screws are 300 series stainless steel


Full width hinges with a stainless steel pin are used on all cases in order to maintain the maximum seal if a case is dropped. The pin and lid can be removed on all transit cases. User configured closed cell dice foam filling is available with all cases. Sections of foam are easily removed to cradle delicate objects. Custom cut foam is also available.
Panel mounting rings are available in Dry Boxes and Dry Cases. The ring is solvent welded in place 0.5 inch below the rim of the case. Brass threaded inserts (8-32) are embedded in the ring for rigid attachment of an instrument panel. A foamed neoprene O-ring seals the panel to the ring.



A glass fiber reinforced extendable handle is a standard option for all transport cases. Because the handle is attached to the outside of the case, the sealed interior remains protected. The length of the handle is sufficient for tall people to pull the case comfortably.

Large 3 inch wheels with stainless steel axles are used on Transport Cases for easier rolling on gravel surfaces or rough pavement. Curbs are no challenge.

SPS fibreFORM Manufacturing and Design Ltd. have finished another phase in the development of instrument enclosures.
 Presently by using a "vacuum bagging" method, SPS has been able to manufacture wall panels with up to 2-3/4" insulation, 1', 2', 3' and 4' wide by 13 foot tall, assembling with 2" to 4" @ 1/8"or 1/4" thick pultrusion posts. Pultrusion posts can now be insulated as an option to provide overall R20+ ratings for our buildings. A 4,000 lbs load test performed at SPS fibreFORM, has proved that our new panels are strong and rugged. SPS fibreFORM's engineering has performed many calculations and tests on these panels to ensure that the customer is getting the most indestructible building manufactured from fiberglass.
