Tool box Stanley 1-97-514

The Stanley 1-97-514 tool box combines a rigid black base with a transparent lid to provide organized storage and clear visibility of contents. With external dimensions of approximately 670 mm (width) x 323 mm (depth) x 251 mm (height), this tool box is designed to store small parts, hand tools and consumables while keeping them protected and easily accessible. The robust construction resists everyday wear and is suitable for frequent transport between worksites or around a workshop.

Advantages

The transparent lid lets you identify contents at a glance without opening the box, saving time when selecting tools or parts. The durable body and secure latching system help protect stored items from dust and light impacts. The box’s size offers a balance between capacity and portability, fitting into vehicle trunks or storage shelves while still accommodating a wide range of small to medium-sized tools. The neutral black finish is low-maintenance and works well in professional and home environments.

How to use

Place the tool box on a stable surface before loading to prevent tipping. Arrange items inside so heavier tools are at the bottom and smaller parts are placed in clear view beneath the transparent lid. Use internal compartments or removable organisers if available to separate fasteners and delicate components. Close the lid firmly until the latch engages to ensure contents remain secure while moving or storing the box.

Usage recommendations

For prolonged life, keep the tool box dry and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent material ageing. Clean the transparent lid with a soft cloth and mild detergent to maintain visibility. Do not overload beyond the practical capacity—distribute weight evenly and avoid storing very sharp or heavy items directly against the lid to prevent deforming under pressure.
