DEWALT TSTAK
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about DEWALT TSTAK from 3G Electric.
What is the maximum load capacity of a DEWALT TSTAK rolling tool box?
The DEWALT TSTAK rolling tool box (model DWST17820) is designed to support a stack of TSTAK units. While DEWALT does not publish a single static load rating for the entire stack, the rolling box itself is constructed from high-impact plastic and includes a telescoping handle and wheels rated for job-site transport. The system is intended for hand-tools and accessories, not for heavy power tools or bulk materials. For specific weight limits, refer to the manufacturer's documentation for each component in the stack.
Are DEWALT TSTAK tool boxes waterproof?
DEWALT TSTAK tool boxes are not advertised as waterproof. They are constructed from high-impact plastic with latches that provide a secure closure, but they are not sealed against water ingress. The system is designed for job-site organization and transport, not for submersion or exposure to heavy rain. For wet conditions, consider using a weather-resistant cover or storing the stack in a dry area.
Can I lock a DEWALT TSTAK tool box with a padlock?
Yes, many DEWALT TSTAK tool boxes, including models DWST17820, DWST17804, and DWST17814, feature padlock-ready hasps. These hasps accept standard padlocks (not included) to secure the lid or drawer. The latch mechanism also provides a basic closure without a padlock. For maximum security, use a padlock with a shackle diameter that fits the hasp opening.
What is the compatibility between DEWALT TSTAK and other modular storage systems?
DEWALT TSTAK uses a proprietary interlocking system with a 17-inch by 17-inch footprint. It is not directly compatible with other modular systems such as ToughSystem or Sortimo. However, TSTAK components are designed to stack and lock together across different generations and product types (boxes, drawers, bags, rolling units). Adapters are not available from DEWALT for cross-system compatibility.
What materials are used in DEWALT TSTAK tool bags?
DEWALT TSTAK tool bags, such as models DWST17623 and DWST17624, are constructed from ballistic nylon. This material is chosen for its durability and resistance to abrasion. The bags feature a black and yellow color scheme and include a rigid base that allows them to interlock with other TSTAK components. The bags are not waterproof but offer protection against dust and minor moisture.
