Wheel Well Toolboxes (Passenger: #FW-48-DS-P-BLK, Driver: FW-48-DS-D-BLK)
UWS wheel well toolboxes easily mount in the truck bed, integrating with the wheel well and leaving your truck bed more open to haul other cargo. Fender well toolboxes include three integrated drawers that slide open toward the rear. These drawers are perfect for storing small tools and equipment and are securely sealed behind a small lockable door. Like all UWS toolboxes for trucks, these boxes are proudly assembled in the USA. Look for these boxes on the Ultimate Work Truck!

Crossover Toolbox (#TBS-69-BLK)
The UWS crossover truck toolbox is a trusted storage solution because it features the patented UWS RigidCore™ lid, which is filled with a solid foam that strengthens it against bending or warping; it also has a self-opening mechanism for convenient operation. It is built from extra-thick, one-piece aluminum to be strong and highly resistant to corrosion. This model features a single lid with two stainless steel paddle lock lift handles. Look for this box on the Ultimate Work Truck!

Drawer Truck Toolbox (#EC20041)
The UWS drawer truck toolbox is the ultimate solution for keeping your tools organized, protected, and accessible on the job. It securely mounts into the truck bed and provides five commercial-grade, precision-injected drawers for storing tools and equipment. The drawers are sealed within the extra-thick, lockable aluminum box, and the door features MicroSeal™ stripping to keep out grime and moisture.

Adjustable Universal Legs for Truck Side Boxes (#TBSM-MK2)
Ingenious mounting legs allow for more flexibility when installing UWS truck side boxes. They securely bolt onto the toolbox (sold separately) and adjust 0°–55° to mount at an angle that accommodates your truck bed. Universal side box legs save space in the bed, maintaining a low profile and avoiding unnecessary obstructions. They are compatible with virtually all UWS side toolboxes (except topsiders). The legs are constructed from powder-coated steel for lasting strength, and they include all necessary hardware for a complete installation.

UWS: Taking the Lid Off Legendary Toolbox Toughness

John Arnaud Leave a comment

You may have heard about the patented RigidCore™ technology from UWS, but what exactly is it and how does it work?  

Through an informative new website, UWS reveals the science behind this feature and how it works to give UWS boxes unrivaled strength and integrity. In short, the process fills the extra-thick aluminum lid with a hardening foam, which prevents the warping and bending common to other toolbox brands. As the site shows, RigidCore™ boxes can withstand power saws, pressure washers, and even the weight of a full-size truck! 

See the results for yourself at www.uwsta.com/rigidcore.
