Speeding the way to rugged cabinet hardware

When Argon Welding saw the need for rugged all-terrain mechanics tool cabinets in their favourite sport of motorbike speedway racing, they naturally turned to in-house argon welding capability. But they also looked to FDB Panel Fittings for specialist expertise and products to aid in quick low-cost assembly.

Steve Pickering at Argon Welding explained: "We needed a method of snap joining units and installing hardware like hinges – FDB's Snapline fitted our requirements really well, and the [range of] radial pin tumbler camlocks completed the workshop pack they supplied under the Rocfast programme." The finished toolboxes with inflatable pneumatic tyred wheels have in-built power distribution for laptops, telemetry and power tools and are suitable for bike and car service engineers in speedway, grass track, scrambling, autocross and rallying. The flexibility of the FDB product pack also aids Argon Welding in production of custom boxes in sponsor configurations where required.
