marine-sealed-case ODM process Buyer's Guide: What We Wish We Knew in 2014

If you have been burned by a marine-sealed-case ODM process supplier before — wrong dimensions, fake IP rating, lead time that doubled mid-order — this page is for you. It is the buyer's guide we wish someone had given us in 2014.

The WL Series: 9 Standard Sizes for marine-sealed-case ODM process

For your reference, here are the WL series models we typically use for marine-sealed-case ODM process applications. Outer dimensions (OD) are measured to the outside of the case; inner dimensions (ID) reflect the usable cavity after subtracting wall thickness. All in millimeters; imperial dimensions in our catalog PDF.

ModelOuter (mm)Inner (mm)Weight (g)MaterialSize Class
WL1204 120×90×40 mm 115×78×32 mm 100 g PP Phone / Wallet
WL2005 195×170×46 mm 190×135×40 mm 175 g PP Action Camera / GoPro
WL2808 275×230×82 mm 265×190×76 mm 480 g PP Tablet / E-reader

The most common model for "marine-sealed-case ODM process" buyers is the WL1204 (120×90×40 mm OD, 100 g empty weight, PP body).

Material and Foam: What marine-sealed-case ODM process Is Made Of

All marine-sealed-case ODM process cases use engineering-grade polypropylene (PP) or PP+glass-fiber composite (PP+GF) for the shell, with CNC-cut closed-cell PE foam inside (density 25 kg/m³). The foam density is calibrated to absorb 1.2m drops on concrete while keeping your equipment from shifting.

The shell is rated IP68 (submersible 5m / 30 min) ingress protection and validated to MIL-STD-810H Method 516.8 (26 drops at 2.0m). Temperature range is -30 ~ +80 °C. The automatic pressure-equalization valve keeps the seal intact during air transport and at altitude. Latch is a double-throw design rated for 5,000 open/close cycles. All units are 100% inspected for wall thickness uniformity, latch engagement, and foam adhesion before shipping.

Real Use Cases: How Buyers Use marine-sealed-case ODM process

In 2024, we shipped marine-sealed-case ODM process for: (1) Film production — ARRI Alexa Mini + accessories in custom foam. (2) Drone operators — DJI Mavic 3 + RC + 6 batteries. (3) Broadcast — RED Komodo + 2 lenses + monitor. (4) Military — rifles + scopes + ammo. (5) Medical — first aid kits + AED.

How to Choose marine-sealed-case ODM process: Decision Framework

For marine-sealed-case ODM process, the decision comes down to: equipment dimensions (always measure with 5-10mm foam clearance), IP rating (IP65 indoor, IP67 outdoor, IP68 water), and certification (FCC for USA, CE for EU, MIL-STD for military). Beyond that, it is foam layout and quantity discount.

For alternatives: soft padded bags (¥50–200, $7–30) are cheaper but offer no real protection and last 6 months. Aluminum hard cases ($80–300) are heavier, prone to denting, and 2–4× the price. Carbon fiber cases ($300+) are overkill for 95% of B2B use cases. Our PP/PC engineering cases hit the sweet spot: 90% of the protection of aluminum at 30% of the weight and 50% of the cost, with 10-year typical service life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between OEM and ODM for marine-sealed-case ODM process?

OEM: you design, we manufacture. ODM: we design (based on your use case), you brand. OEM requires 3D model / spec sheet from you. ODM requires usage description only. OEM MOQ 500, ODM MOQ 200. Both lead time 25-30 days for tooling.

Can I get a sample before ordering marine-sealed-case ODM process?

Yes. Free samples for standard WL series (you pay shipping, $30-80 via DHL). 5-day sample lead time. Custom samples: $200-500 fee (refundable on order >2,000 units), 7-15 day lead time.

What about the foam — do I have to use yours?

No, you can supply your own foam. We can ship the case without foam (15% cost reduction) or with custom foam (your spec). Our standard foam is 25mm base + 10mm convoluted lid, CNC-cut to 0.5mm tolerance.

How long does marine-sealed-case ODM process last?

PP case body: 10+ year typical service life with normal use. Foam set: 5+ years before showing compression set. Latch: 5,000-10,000 open/close cycles. Hinge: 10,000 cycles. Replace foam when it no longer rebounds; replace case when latch or hinge fails.

What if my equipment dimensions change?

We can re-cut foam for the same case. Cost: $20-50 per foam set depending on size. Lead time: 5-7 days. We keep your foam layout in our database for 3 years for easy re-order. If equipment changes significantly, you may need a different WL series.
