It also features an inner lead organizer for storing drills and bits.
The durable 4mm thick structural foam box has a robust structure and foam construction which ensures your tools are safe inside the box.
Open tote case
This is an open structural foam box you can stack on top of each other like the other tough system boxes.
Its major purpose is storing bulky items like hammers, cordless drills, chisels, etc. In addition, there are internal slots where you can insert dividers to organize the large space for smaller tools.

There are 4 larger and 8 removable cups for organizing smaller parts and accessories such as nails, nuts, bolts, screws, screw anchors, washers and so on. An integrated water sill ensures everything stored inside is protected from moisture and rust.
Radio player
Equipped with 4 full range tweeters, 1 sub-woofer, and 1 assisted bass resonator, this Dewalt tough system radio player is not your regular job site radio player.
It’s a tough, top-quality radio that produces the premium sound you need to feel groovy while on the job site.
The radio player allows connectivity to any Bluetooth-enabled smartphone or music device for up to 100 feet away. You can power it using Dewalt 12V Max or 20V Max battery, or you can just plug it into a wall outlet.
I own 12 boxes different sizes . I ripped the handle of a two of them, keep breaking the clips, and the weather seals don’t line up half the time
This system is really great. Really detailed review.
