Tool boxes

A toolbox is intended for storing and transporting items required for car repair and maintenance. This is a spacious accessory with a large number of compartments which allows to keep the equipment in order and use the space efficiently.

Types

In the catalogues of modern manufacturers, there are toolboxes of various shapes and sizes. Apart from that, they also differ in the material they are made of. In particular, such items are offered:

• Plastic. They are lightweight, corrosion-resistant and available at an affordable price. Their disadvantage is brittleness.
• Metal. Robust items usually made of steel or aluminium. Feature high durability and resistance to mechanical damage. Their drawback is that they are rather heavy.

Manufacturers produce regular and open-top tool boxes. The latter (referred to as tool totes) do not have a lid and provide a quick access to all the items inside. The disadvantage is that if the tote is transported carelessly, things can fall out. Regular toolboxes are fitted with a lid and securely protect the tools from moisture and dust. Besides, in online shops, you can find items equipped with wheels or a shoulder strap.

Toolboxes: usage tips

1. Do not exceed maximum carrying capacity specified in the manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Lubricate joints and other fasteners regularly using a small amount of motor oil.
3. Clean occasionally the product both inside and outside without any chemicals.
4. Metal items shouldn’t be kept in high humidity conditions.
