Key Features
Eight-drawer configuration offers a substantial 18,197 cubic inches of storage space, featuring a specialized layout designed to maximize vertical organization for diverse tool sets.
Double-wall steel construction reinforces the entire cabinet frame using 14, 16, and 18-gauge steel, ensuring it remains rigid and square while protecting the ball-bearing slides from external impacts.
Full-extension ball-bearing slides provide smooth operation and support a load capacity of 125 pounds per drawer, with adjustable detents ranging from 12 to 24 pounds of pull force.
Gas spring lid assists enable the top compartment to open smoothly and stay securely in place, allowing for easy access to frequently used tools.
Gloss black powder coat finish delivers a professional, high-performance aesthetic that is resistant to scratches, chips, and common industrial chemicals.
Recessed aluminum extruded drawer pulls span the full width of each drawer, providing a secure, comfortable grip while maintaining a low-profile design to prevent snagging.
Professional-grade weight of 360 pounds reflects the heavy-gauge steel and extensive internal bracing necessary for high-capacity, long-term industrial durability.
