Milwaukee 48-21-8040 PACKOUT Rack System Drawer

The Milwaukee 48-21-8040 PACKOUT™ Rack System Drawer is a modular drawer built to expand the capabilities of your existing PACKOUT™ Rack or Rack Kit. Made from durable steel and rated for 50 lbs of weight in transit, this drawer delivers reliable, customizable storage for tools, parts, or accessories on the move or in the shop. It’s part of the PACKOUT™ Modular Storage System—one of the most versatile setups available, now with over 125 compatible solutions—offering sliding drawer access without unstacking other units, a major time-saver for tool users working on fast-paced jobsites or out of service vehicles.

This drawer is designed for use with the Milwaukee PACKOUT™ Rack (48-21-8000) and Rack Kit (48-21-8070) and can be adjusted in height to suit your ideal layout. Its easy-install rail system makes repositioning drawers simple, whether you’re reorganizing gear, accommodating oversized items, or expanding your system vertically. The drawer mechanism only allows one to open at a time for added safety during transport, and each drawer locks securely closed to keep contents in place. As part of Milwaukee’s system-wide modular design, this drawer connects seamlessly with all PACKOUT™ components, including toolboxes, organizers, and totes.
