{"product_id":"uws-tote-box-bright-aluminum-0-8-cu-ft-ec20101","title":"UWS Tote Box, Bright Aluminum, 0.8ft³ (EC20101)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe UWS tote box is the small, genuinely portable end of the UWS range: a welded aluminum chest you can carry to the job by its top handle and padlock shut when you leave it. It holds 0.8ft³ in a 21\" x 12.25\" x 7\" footprint, with a stainless twist latch that accepts your own padlock. The tub is a single piece of 0.058\" aluminum and a MicroSeal gasket runs the full perimeter of the opening to keep rain and dust out. This body style uses a plain lid with a padlockable twist latch rather than UWS's RigidCore foam-filled lid. The finish is bright aluminum diamond plate. This is the heavy-packaging version of the box: mechanically identical to the standard part, but crated for parcel carriage so it can ship without freight. UWS designs, fabricates and welds it in Florida and backs it with a limited lifetime warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUWS Tote Box in Bright Aluminum, part EC20101\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless twist latch, ready for a padlock of your choice (padlock not supplied)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUWS installation sheet, product literature and warranty information\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"embed-container\" style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;max-width:100%;\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nyJX-ub0xac\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePortable and Lockable\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSmall enough to carry and lock down wherever it lands, which makes it as useful in a garage or a van as it is in a truck bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExtra-Thick 0.058\" One-Piece Aluminum Tub\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe tub is formed from a single piece of 0.058\" aluminum rather than welded up from thinner panels, so there are fewer seams to leak or split and the box keeps its shape when it is loaded with heavy hand tools, cordless kits and chain. Aluminum also means it will not rust out from the inside the way a painted steel box does once the coating is chipped, which matters on a box that lives outdoors and gets road salt thrown at it every winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-Opening Lid\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRelease the twist latch and the lid lifts and stays up on its own, close to a full 90 degrees.

It is now part of the Lippert and CURT Group family, which is what gives a box at this price a real dealer network, real parts support and a warranty that means something years later. What has not changed is where the boxes are made: UWS designs, fabricates and welds them at its own plant rather than importing finished bodies, and that is visible in the details that cannot be fixed after the fact, such as square lids, consistent welds and gaskets that meet cleanly all the way around the opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tote box is not one of the RigidCore lid models, because it does not have a lid: it is built around a plain padlockable lid. What it shares with the rest of the range is the part that matters most, the 0.058\" one-piece aluminum tub, thicker than most of the competition and immune to the rust that eventually kills a painted steel box, and the MicroSeal full-perimeter gasket that keeps rain, road spray and fine grit out of your tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrestige Truck is an authorized UWS dealer. Every box we ship is new, factory-packed, covered by the full UWS limited lifetime warranty and supported by UWS's US-based parts and service team.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48935885734132,"sku":"UWSEC20101","price":241.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0805\/4784\/0244\/files\/uws-ec20101-tote-box-bright-aluminum-studio-a.webp?v=1785304137","url":"https:\/\/prestigetruck.com\/products\/uws-tote-box-bright-aluminum-0-8-cu-ft-ec20101","provider":"Prestige Truck","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
