For added convenience, the 127 is equipped with new attachment points for securing tools and supplies in the truck bed. New ³Easy Find² organization includes an adjustable metal tray, a new removable parts bin and a level holder.

³Our flagship truck box has always been very popular with larger, commercial contractors,² said Bill Zbylut, VP Marketing. ³We think our customers will appreciate all the enhancements along with the industry leading Limited Lifetime Warranty.²

A durable and attractive truck box, the 127¹s heavy-duty construction features a reinforced aluminum body and powder-coat finish. Latch linkage protection, gas spring guards and lock guards shield against shifting cargo.

Another innovative detail is the saddle box¹s 12V pass-through that allows for recharging power equipment securely. A full weather seal protects contents by keeping out moisture and dust even in extreme conditions.
