New Milwaukee® 13” Work Box delivers jobsite versatility

Words: Katherine O'tooleMilwaukee Tool continues to provide solutions that maximize jobsite productivity with the introduction of the new 13” Jobsite Work Box. Designed with versatility in mind, the new storage solution features a 16” seat height for repetitive tasks that are close to ground level, such as wiring an outlet, and innovative organization options like vertical tool storage dividers.

“With all of the tool storage solutions that are available on the market today, many users still utilize a simple bucket for tool storage, as they are a good height for seated work and easy to carry from one work area to the next,” says Bobby Shaw, Director of Product Marketing for Milwaukee Tool. “Seeing this trend, we knew there had to be a better, more durable solution that could keep users organized and provide a functional seating option for those that needed it.”

Built for extreme durability, the 13” Jobsite Work Box is made with a proprietary high impact resistant polymer, and features reinforced corners for impact resistance, allowing it to survive over 1,000 drops with a 25lb load. An Integrated Drip Ledge Lid also protects the user’s tools from water, debris and contamination.

More than a tool box, the new storage solution also delivers innovative features that will increase productivity including a box divider, floating tray and large capacity interior to securely organize tools. An innovative vertical tool storage tray is also included, allowing users to hang an entire tray of tools near their work area for easy, organized on-task tool access. For maximum user versatility, the 13” Work Box also features a wide grip locking handle, indexing squares for secure stacking, and a cut groove on the lid for cutting small diameter material.

Made in the USA, the new 13” Jobsite Work Box (48-22-8010) is the second in a growing line of storage solutions from Milwaukee, and will be available at select retailers in August of 2014. Dedicated to delivering advanced solutions to increase productivity, Milwaukee’s line of storage solutions will continue to grow and offer innovative solutions for the trades.
