Milwaukee® 48-22-8438 PACKOUT™ Low-Profile Crate
Compact Storage Flexibility. Full 50 lb. Weight Capacity. Effortless Tool-Free Layout Customization.
The Milwaukee 48-22-8438 PACKOUT Low-Profile Crate drops ultra-responsive organization, instant tool access, and uncompromised structural toughness directly into your service van setup or warehouse shelves. Purpose-built to eliminate the clunky deep bins, wasted vertical space, and unorganized part migration common with oversized storage setups, this low-profile modular utility bin optimizes your layout. It arms commercial contractors, residential installers, maintenance crews, and mechanics with a shallow open-top base optimized to keep hand tools, electrical fittings, fasteners, plumbing couplings, and PPE items organized.
Advanced interior customization and complete layout freedom form the mechanical backbone of this elite PACKOUT Low-Profile Basket. Molded using heavy-duty, impact-resistant jobsite polymers, the frame holds an impressive 50 lb cargo weight capacity without bowing under stress. Its core configuration benefit centers on a comprehensive 11-piece quick-adjust divider system consisting of short, long, and center dividers, allowing users to partition specialized compartments for different assignments instantly. It features comfortable integrated side handles for balanced transport, while bottom-molded weep drainage holes ensure external moisture leaks out safely.
