Zarges cases are the pinnacle of protection and organization. Our versatile 40678 affords best-in-class protection, no matter the environment. Configurations (including custom foam and the KōR Vacuum Rigidized Structure) and accessories add to its unmatched utility.
For 90 years, Zarges has protected what matters most, offering luxuriously rugged military grade protection. No matter whether you’re battling the elements, on location far from home, transporting gear from peak to peak, scoping out overaggressive baggage handlers, or even encountering a grizzly bear in the wild—those who need the best in protection have learned that there’s no substitute for ZARGES.
Precision-crafted with a jeweler’s finesse, the Zarges 40678 is a monument to German engineering. With use, its striking aluminum body shows an unmistakable patina.
The 40678’s compact size and perfect design effectively protect what’s inside from the elements, brute force, and even grizzly bears. Its stacking corners withstand over a ton of pressure, protecting the items inside like nothing else. It can be found on a professional soccer pitch, nestled within the cabin of an Airstream, as a trusted companion on an overlanding expedition, and even in high-tech aerospace environments.
As with all other Zarges cases, they are rated to operate in extreme temperatures from -112°F to 302°F, offering durability plastic cases just can’t match. And their light weight and single wall construction means that they just hold more than the leading plastic case.
For those who are seeking an additional layer of protection, there are countless configurations customizable to the customer. And our ever-evolving lineup of accessories can change your case’s color, turn it into an aprés-adventure tailgate table, or keep it locked until what’s inside is needed.
No matter whether you’re in the carpool line or above tree line, camping under the stars or nestled in a camper, Zarges sets the standard for protection. In the world of exploration, there is no greater ally than the legendary Zarges case.

Additional Options
Foam Options We utilize only the highest quality industrial-grade extruded polyethylene foam. Our chosen foam is strong, lightweight, resilient, flexible, and water-resistant. A medium density closed cell product, it is ideally suited for shock absorption, vibration dampening, insulating, and general cushioning. 100% recyclable, the foam is free of CFC and HCFC compounds. All foam parts for Zarges cases are cut on a high-precision CNC waterjet to ensure an exacting fit.
KōR Vacuum Rigidized System (VRS®) VRS® (Vacuum Rigidizing Structure) technology shields valuable assets by encapsulating contents so that movement does not occur during transport. VRS® will also absorb impact or vibration energy, further protecting your gear while also reducing weight by 40% and tripling interior volume when compared to foam. The KōR option for the 40678 case comes with 6 single VRS® panels, providing protection for up to 5 layers of gear, and a KōR pump.
