Stellar Industries launched what it calls the industry’s first bale-style pull handle for steel toolbox systems. This option will be in addition to the previously available aluminum constructed toolbox systems.

“When we first introduced this handle style to the market last fall, our goal was to make our operators’ lives easier,” said Tim Davison, vice president of sales and marketing at Stellar. “We’ve been able to double down on that goal by now including the bale-style pull handle for steel toolbox systems. This gives the customer more options to design the ideal toolbox system for their needs.”

Just like aluminum toolbox systems, Stellar said the steel option features an easy-to-use design that offers a more ergonomic and user-friendly experience. The unique dual-action handle design allows users to activate the latches by grabbing the handle from either above or below. Stellar was the first to introduce this handle style to the market late in 2023 and showcased the bale-style pull handles at NTEA Work Truck Week earlier this year.

The bale-style pull-handle can integrate into an existing Stellar toolbox system effortlessly. The drawer front assembly on a T-handle toolbox system can be directly replaced with a pull-handle front assembly. Additionally, the new toolbox system will continue to carry Stellar’s lifetime warranty, ensuring peace of mind.

The Stellar toolbox systems are designed with all metal components, including the latches and handles, ensuring durability and longevity. In addition, drawer fronts are given a standard gray powder-coated finish, but customers will have the option to customize the color to suit their individual preferences and styles.
