Not sure it fits?

Fitted by you, to your case, following the steps below. A part that comes loose, or damage caused by fitting a part incorrectly, is not a product fault.

How it is built

A 4 mm padded cover, a cross strap and four corner guards, for a mid-size case. The cover adds the layer, the cross strap keeps it and the case closed, and the guards go under it at the corners.

Suits these shells

Hard shell, polycarbonate
Flexes under load and springs back. Takes surface scuffing more than cracking.
Hard shell, ABS
Stiffer and more brittle than polycarbonate. Corners are the usual failure point.

Where those figures come from

Foam layer thickness
Measured on the panel centre of the finished cover with a dial thickness gauge at 1 N contact force, five points averaged per sample, three samples.
Rated working load
Straight pull on a 50 mm webbing sample at 23 °C on a bench tensile rig, three samples, the lowest value of the three reported. Rated working load, not breaking load.
Corner impact test
Free fall from 1.0 m onto a rigid steel plate, case loaded to 15 kg, impact on the lower shell corner, five repeats per sample, three samples, conducted at 23 °C.

Fitting

Three steps, no tools.

  1. 01Clean and dry the area of the case the part sits on. Room temperature, indoors.
  2. 02Line the part up dry first and check the fit before you commit any adhesive.
  3. 03Seat it, press it home along its full contact area, and leave it 24 hours before the case is handled.

What is in this kit

  • Cover Padded 24

    The one with material in it. A measured 4 mm foam core, quilted so it stays where it was sewn.

    USD 52

  • Strap Cross

    Two directions instead of one. The single strap slides on a smooth shell; a cross does not.

    USD 24

  • Corner Set 4

    Four pieces on the four points that meet the floor first. The cheapest place to add material.

    USD 16
