Weather Guard Saddle Box Aluminum Full Low Profile Gloss Black

Description

Tired of blind spots when backing your pickup truck up to jobsite trailers? The Weather Guard Gloss Black Saddle Box drops low on bed rails to clear your rear window line-of-sight. It locks up hand tools, drills, and cords behind the cab. The shallow tub will not swallow tall five-gallon buckets. Push buttons unlock the lid from either side.

Formed 0.058-inch diamond plate aluminum forms the exterior body pan, side walls, and heavy reinforced lid. A deep gloss black powder coat finish resists harsh road chemicals, motor oil, and sun fading. Dual industrial gas struts push the cover open. The empty unit weighs 78 lbs and measures 71.5 inches long, 20.25 inches wide, and 18.5 inches deep.

Deadbolt Retention Torsion Testing

Bench tests show the automotive deadbolts hold tight against 1100 lbs of upward prying force along front corners. Off-center lid lifting tests show less than 0.050 inches of diagonal twist across the aluminum frame. The bulb weather seal blocks moisture during fifty minutes of driving rain tests. Gas dampers maintain smooth lifting force across temperatures from minus 20 to 140 degrees.

Truck Rail Fitment Space Limits

Lifting this 78-lb box onto truck bed rails requires two workers to prevent scratching truck body paint. Do not buy this low-profile saddle box if you need to haul tall grease tubs or portable generators inside. The lower box body intrudes eighteen inches into upper bed cargo length. Tighten rail clamps with standard hand tools.

• Lubricate dual lock cylinders with dry graphite spray every six months to prevent jamming.
• Inspect under-rail J-bolt clamp torque after running over severe washboard gravel roads.
• Wipe down automotive door seals with silicone protectant before winter freezing temperatures hit.
