Snap-on Tools has built its new Heavy Duty Mobile Workstation to provide the nearly indestructible strength of a stationary workstation with the portability of a shop cart.

"The biggest challenges of heavy duty repair work are actually getting the tools to the job and then having a strong work surface to stage heavy duty components," said Jay Serpe, product manager for Snap-on. "Our heavy duty mobile workstation is extremely strong and portable, allowing you to get the right tools where you need them, when you need them."

The 38-inch by 26-inch stainless steel top work surface holds over 1,000 pounds, Snap-on claims. It's equipped with two 30.25-inch by 24-inch InPulse drawers, both with a secure round key locking system. It also comes with one 6-inch deep utility drawer for in-process work.

The workstation has raised edges on the top work surface to prevent objects from sliding off. Double-latched InPulse drawers not only hold more weight, but are built to ensure they never drift open in transit. Each corner of the mobile workstation is lined with soft, vertical bumpers to protect nearby surfaces.

Other features include spot-welded fabrication of the one-piece frame, a handle with extra large diameter, casters that can hold loads of more than one ton, and a dual function switch for going from swivel mode to rigid.
