Horizontal Hold Carts—Heavy Duty (CBL Style)

The Horizontal Hold Cart is a heavy-duty, ESD-conductive board storage and handling solution designed for electronics assembly, PCB labs, and high-volume production environments. Built to organize and move circuit boards efficiently, it helps teams keep up with fast-paced workflows while protecting sensitive components.

Features

• ESD-conductive construction for static control during handling
• High-density 3/8" deep slides with positive board capture
• 48 board levels with 11/16" (0.6875") on-center spacing for efficient loading
• Accommodates boards up to 22½" long and up to 1/2" thick
• Standard configuration includes 2 end panels and 1 center panel; center panel features slides on both sides
• Dimensions: 68" H × 36" W × 24" D
• Weight: 105 lb (robust, wheel-ready construction)
• Finish designed for durability in industrial settings
• Optional HTK-1 High Temperature Kit for temps over 160°F (up to 400°F): 4 high-temperature casters (2 with brakes), 2 “Caution Hot” labels, and 4 metal post caps (not included)
• Optional IDK-1V Label Identification Kit (not included) for streamlined inventory
• ESD classification: conductive for safe handling of sensitive boards

Benefits

Increase throughput and reduce board misplacement with a compact, high-capacity rack that stores up to 48 circuit boards across 48 levels. The 3/8" slides ensure positive capture so boards stay put during transport and reloading, while the 11/16" on-center spacing maximizes volume loading without sacrificing accessibility.

The center panel’s dual-sided slides double loading surface, enabling faster workflow as operators pull boards from either side. This setup is especially beneficial on crowded lines where space is at a premium and quick access matters.

ESD-conductive construction minimizes static discharge risk, helping preserve board integrity from intake through processing. The cart’s sturdy build and 105 lb weight rating ensure reliable performance in demanding environments, with easy mobility across shop floors.

For teams operating at elevated temperatures, the HTK-1 option expands usability to temperatures up to 400°F, making it suitable for hot-work areas or pre-assembly processes. The labeling kit (IDK-1V) helps teams track board lots and project IDs, reducing mix-ups on busy lines.

Who benefits: electronics contract manufacturers, PCB labs, prototype shops, and any facility needing dense, organized, and safe board storage. Compared to lighter carts, this model delivers greater capacity, robust rigidity, and built-in static control—ideal for high-volume, high-precision workflows.
