"There are various jobsite needs that our users are constantly reaching for, like hand tools or batteries. These tool box attachments will provide easier access to tools like this, transforming our user's stacks into more of a mobile workstation," says Matt Vargo, vice president of product marketing at Milwaukee Tool. "While working in the field alongside professionals, we have seen a a need for innovation that helps users transport larger tools, like levels, conduit benders, or other longer handled solutions that don't fit inside of toolboxes. The toolbox attachments will store these on the outside of stacks, reducing the number of trips back and forth between the van."
The attachments include:
- The M18 battery rack attachment and the M12 battery rack attachment provide quick battery access and clip-in battery storage. Both racks fit all M18 and M12 batteries storing up to three batteries each.
- The three-hook attachment has a 30-pound weight capacity designed to store and access power tools and more. The three hooks adjust save space by allowing hooks to be adjusted to the left or right when not in use.
- The long tool holder attachment will include an upper and a lower tool box attachment that directly locks onto the metal reinforced corners. The attachment features spring-looaded gates to store and retrieve longer tools. It can hold three long tools with a 35-pound weight capacity.
- The caddy attachment stores hand tools, accessories and more. The adjustable dividers allow for customization and can be stored on the back of the attachment with on-board storage when not in use. The metal reinforced belt clip rack provides another level of storage for belt clip tools and maintains shape when fully loaded.
- The tool box tray attachment stores bins, bit cases and more to quickly access parts and materials commonly used on site.
- The tool box compact plate delivers the capability to store organizers, hooks, racks, holders and more on the side of the Packout stack. It has a 30-pound weight capacity.
The Packout storage system has more than 100 solutions for users to choose from.
