Hello,
It’s my first time on this group.
Does anyone know if the clips that are on the tough system boxes used for clipping stacked boxes together are strong enough to hold a box securely to another box whilst carrying them stacked using the top box handle? Or are the clips designed for stationary storage usage only? thanks
it works for me

Thank you Gatorb888
i have never had one fail yet. I use my boxs every single day to and from the truck to the site. My bottom box caries my 20 volt saw’s all, my 18 volt metal saw, and my 12 volt mini saws all, with spare batterys for each, its cliped to my top box which has my 20 volt impact and 20 drill, plus a couple chargers and my flash light, so ya there strong
I don’t think you have too much to worry about. I doubt you will be trying to load the boxes with 100 pounds and then trying to lift them by the handle. I imagine once they got above 40 pounds, you will find yourself using the cart or making multiple trips…
Where the clips fail is when they get knocked over when they’re clipped.
They could of made those a lil more heavy duty but like Gator said it hasn’t failed me yet either
can you buy those clips separate if they would break off ?!
I tried looking but I don’t think so
Yep, you can buy all the parts from a Toughsystem box. Look at this page (for a DS150) http://servicenet.dewalt.com/Products/Detail/DWST08201

that’s pretty good that you can repair it / buy the parts

I there a uk/euro version of this site?
Yep. Just go to www.dewalt.co.uk (or any other country) and click on the “service” tab. It will forward you to the service site of your country where you can look up manuals, diagrams and parts.
when you can buy the tool in your country, there is always a page too 😛
