The Cut and Peel Foam Solution to make Tactix toolbox organisers

There's little worse than investing a bunch of money into your Tactix tool storage system to find that it’s still not as organised as you'd like. Our Tactix toolbox organisers are super easy to use. All you need to do is just cut and peel. But that that's far from the only benefit of our inserts. Here is what else our inserts can do for you and your tools:

Keep Your Tools Protected

Quality tools from brands like Tactix are expensive to repair or replace. Therefore keeping them protected should be a top priority. And that's just what our inserts are best at.

The tools are cut into the foam by you. Once that's done you’ve created a protective home for your tools to live in whenever not in use. That’s any tool at all, be it smaller hand tools or bigger items and power tools.  

Organise Your Tools Just the Way You Want

As you're creating your own custom tool organiser, the layout can be just how you'd like it to be.

Many Tactix toolbox dividers, compartments or pre made inserts come in a pre-defined shape, which dictates where you can fit your tools, rather than being suited to your needs. Whilst any level of organisation is better than none, life would be much simpler letting you work more efficiently when it's customised to your own needs.

Since our Shadow Foam inserts are simply cut and then peeled, you're in full control of the layout and accessibility of your tools. The result being that you can work more efficiently, and achieve much faster results whenever you work with your tools. 

Easy to Keep Clean

Our Polyethylene material is renowned for being super easy to clean. Any build-up of dust or dirt can be easily wiped away, making the cleaning of your toolbox much easier. Keeping it looking as professional and slick as when you first made it. 

Resistant to UV, Water and Common Chemicals

One unique benefit of our polyethylene material is that it's resistant to most common chemicals, UV, and water. That means you can work in most conditions without worrying that your Shadow Foam insert might lose its shape, strength, or aesthetic appeal.

No Odour and HCFC Free

Many Klein toolbox organisers can be made out of materials that aren't HCFC free, therefore can be considered harmful to the environment or when the odours they ommit are breathed in. Our Shadow Foam inserts are completely odourless and HCFC-free, so they're much safer for indoor use.

Strong and Durable, Yet Affordable

Custom made Tactix tool box inserts can be expensive. In some instances, you might need to spend hundreds of pounds just to keep your tools and equipment safe.

However, Shadow Foam inserts arn't just strong and durable, but they're also much more affordable. As a result, thousands are now using Shadow Foam inserts as a cost-effective means of keeping their tools safe and protected during use or whenever in transit. 

Suitable For Anyone With Tactix Storage

Whether you're an electrician or network engineer with thousands of tools or a hobbyist who enjoys a little DIY at home, you'll still benefit from investing in Shadow Foam inserts for your Tactix tool case.

Many  neglect their toolboxes, finding them frustratingly messy and unorganised when they come to need them. This not only increases the risk of losing and breaking tools, but will shorten the lifespan of those items.

FAQs

The inserts re designed and shaped to fit the footprint of your DeWALT case or drawer

Check the product description for each DeWALT item listed, where we give a breakdown of all the cases that each insert will fit.

This is really up to you as it depends what you want to store in your DeWALT case and how deep the container in question is. You might even want to build up multiple layers of inserts. For small hand tools you might want to consider a 30mm depth of foam which would then allow you to cut down to a depth of around 20mm in which to house the items. Power tools might be better with a 50mm insert, giving you 40mm workable depth in which to cut them into the foam.

We do have more stock arriving all the time. So if what you’re looking for shows as out of stock, it’s worth checking again at a later date. If you need something more quickly for your DeWALT storage, and an alternative colour or depth of foam won’t work for you, perhaps consider making your own insert. We’ve created this easy guide to help.

Unless specified in the product description, no. The depth of foam for your DeWALT foam inserts will be as you select at checkout and the colour of the inserts in the pack would be the same.

Yes absolutely. You can get a sample of Shadow Foam here.

Our range of ready made inserts is growing all the time. But because there are so many models of toolboxes out there, we aren’t always able to make inserts for all of them. In these cases, we have standard sheets and packs of foam that you can cut down to create your own custom inserts for your DeWALT storage cases, check out this video tutorial.

Absolutely! Shadow Foam is reversible – either use the coloured side or the black side in your DeWALT storage – it's your choice.
