If the problem is simply that there is nowhere to hook a ratchet strap over the box, this is a much cheaper answer than a bed rack. They are molded from black UV-stabilized, glass-filled nylon, so they hold their strength in sunlight and cannot corrode against an aluminum lid, and each rail measures 18-1\/4\" long, 2-3\/4\" wide and 3-1\/2\" tall. The mounting hardware is rubber-coated, which matters more than it sounds: it seals the holes you put through the lid so a weather-tight tool box stays weather-tight. UWS rates the rails at 50 lb and states plainly on its own drawing that they are not to be used as a hand rail. They fit UWS tool boxes with a 3\/4\" x 45° chamfered lid and a minimum width of 18-1\/2\", so check your lid's edge profile before ordering. Unlike UWS's aluminum boxes, which are welded in Florida, these rails are made in China, and they carry the same limited lifetime warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo UWS fascia tie-down rails, black glass-filled nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix well nuts, 1\/4-20 x 9\/16\", the rubber-sleeved fasteners that seal the lid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix flanged button-head screws, 1\/4-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUWS installation manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUWS limited lifetime warranty\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\u003eAdds Tie-Down Points to a Box You Already Own\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe UWS-TBTD is a pair of molded rails that bolt to the lid of an existing UWS tool box and give you anchor points where there were none.

The company builds at its own plant in Perry, Florida, and it has been supplying the truck accessory trade long enough that the diamond plate box with the blue UWS badge is a familiar sight on job sites. UWS is part of the CURT Group, which in turn belongs to Lippert, so behind a fairly specialized Florida welding shop sits a full national parts and warranty network.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo pieces of engineering separate a UWS box from a generic aluminum one. The first is the patented RigidCore lid: instead of a hollow shell, the lid is a pair of aluminum plates completely filled with a hardening, expanding foam, which sets into a solid structure and stops the lid bending, warping or binding after a few years of being leaned on. The second is the MicroSeal gasket, which lines the entire seam where the lid meets the tub and keeps water, dust, grit and insects out of the box rather than merely slowing them down. Both are backed by a limited lifetime warranty on the box, with one year on the finish and one year on the parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrestige Truck is an authorized UWS dealer. Every item we ship is new, in the original UWS carton, and covered by the full UWS factory warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48935878459636,"sku":"UWSUWS-TBTD","price":38.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0805\/4784\/0244\/files\/uws-uws-tbtd-truck-tool-box-tie-down-side-rails-hero-front-three-quarter.webp?v=1785337682","url":"https:\/\/prestigetruck.com\/products\/uws-truck-tool-box-tie-down-side-rails-black-nylon-50-lb-limit-uws-tbtd","provider":"Prestige Truck","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
