Whether you’re looking for spacious drawer units, tool boxes, organizers, and more, we have your back with their dimensions. When it comes to shopping online the frustrating part is that you can’t actually see what you’re buying; that’s why having these dimensions helps so much with optimizing your ToughSystem storage space. Don’t stress about how each piece is going to fit together, let’s walk through each section of DeWalt’s ToughSystem storage together.

Adaptor
The DeWalt ToughSystem 2.0 Adaptor is made to bridge the gap between the DeWalt ToughSystem Storage units and TSTAK, ToughCase, and Pro organizer products. Since the ToughSystem really only connects with itself (including 1.0), you’ll need this adaptor.
