Protective Cases for Defense and Military

Does Kexin offer ITAR-compliant production for defense cases?

Yes. Kexin's defense production line operates under ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations) compliance for US-destined shipments. Separate production zones, controlled access, employee background checks, end-use certificates, and US State Department registration. For non-US customers, we follow equivalent Wassenaar Arrangement guidelines. NSN (NATO Stock Numbers) available for common configurations.

What MIL-STD-810H test methods does Kexin pass?

8-series and Trolley pass MIL-STD-810H Method 514.8 (vibration), Method 516.8 (drop 26 drops from 1.2m), Method 506.6 (rain), Method 507.6 (humidity 95% RH), Method 509.7 (salt fog), Method 501.7 and 502.7 (temperature -40°C to +80°C), Method 510.7 (sand and dust). Test reports available on request for orders above 500 pieces.

Can you provide NATO Stock Numbers (NSN) for your cases?

Yes, for our most popular 8-series and Trolley configurations we maintain pre-registered NSNs in the NATO Codification System (NCS). Common NSNs include 8115-01-XXX-XXXX for transport cases. For custom orders, we assist with the NSN application process through your national codification bureau (US DOD, UK MOD, German BAAINBw, etc.). Lead time for new NSN registration is 60-90 days.

What is the minimum order for defense/military cases?

MOQ 100 pieces for standard configurations (off-the-shelf 8-series or Trolley cases for non-ITAR applications). MOQ 500 pieces for fully custom ITAR-compliant production with NSN registration, custom foam, Pantone color, and OEM logo. Sample lead time 7-10 days, bulk 25-45 days. AQL 1.0 for defense orders (vs 2.5 for commercial).

Do you offer tamper-evident seals for sensitive equipment?

Yes, optional pull-tight seals (plastic or metal) available for all 8-series and Trolley cases. Padlock hasps also accept tamper-evident seals. For ammunition and classified equipment, we integrate numbered serialized seals with chain-of-custody documentation. ISO 17712 high-security bolt seals available for international shipping under customs supervision.

Can Kexin cases survive being air-dropped by parachute?

8-series and Trolley meet MIL-STD-810H Method 516.8 (drop from 1.2m onto concrete, 26 drops) which corresponds to most low-altitude airdrop scenarios from C-130 / CH-47 (impact velocity ~7-9 m/s). For high-altitude or palletized airdrops, we recommend adding external hard-case foam cradle or skids. We have defense customer references for confirmed airdrop use, contact sales for case studies.
