S&S Hard Case 10” - Compression Member

* Prevents external pressures from damaging the packed bicycle. 
* Made of 1/2" PVC plastic.
* Approximate weight is 130 grams. 
* Made in the USA.

* Recommended for use in sets of 4.

* Recommended for use with S&S cases. For checked baggage travel, backpack cases can be enclosed in a cardboard box for the compression members to work more effectively.

* How they work: "Pressure is kept away from the packed bicycle by transferring loads from one side of the case to the other side through a 1/2" PVC plastic pipe which is held in place by two plastic disks. The disks can move sideways in the case to avoid added pressure against the bike if it shifts. To use this device, the first plastic disk is either placed in the bottom of the case before packing or once it's packed, the disc is slipped between the paced items to the bottom. After the bike is completely packed, a plastic pipe is inserted into the socket of the disk lying on the bottom of the case. The final step is to slip the second disk onto the top end of the pipe."

* Use with the TSA Security Net to prevent compression members from shifting during airport inspection.
