Tool chests
Power Team’s security chests help protect tools from theft and weather. They are made from 16-gauge steel with arc-welded seams. Full-length piano hinges secure chest cover to body. Single or double latch security tabs allow padlocking.
The chests include mechanical cover supports and two four-cm skids. Each chest is pre-drilled to allow optional casters. Fold down carrying handles are located on each end. Sizes ranges from 0.14 to 0.7 cubic metres (five-25 cubic feet).
