Designed to mount on top of our standard 30- and 45-gallon (114- and 170-L) safety cabinets, these Piggyback cabinets create a safe storage space without taking up any valuable floor space. Cabinets can also be used independently as a wall-mount unit or on a countertop.
Justrite blue steel Piggyback safety cabinets for corrosives have the same quality safety features as the cabinets for flammables. All models come with double-wall construction, dual vents, grounding wire connections, adjustable shelves, leakproof sills, three-point self-latching doors and leveling feet. Manual-close door(s) opens to a full 180 degrees and self-latches when pushed closed.
Additionally, they include polyethylene trays attached to galvanized steel shelves and a separate polyethylene liner for the bottom sump resist aggressive chemicals. Easily remove the liner for quick cleaning of drips and leaks. An all epoxy baked-on powder-coat finish, inside and out, provides increased chemical resistance.
Manual close models meet OSHA and NFPA 30. Cabinets are FM approved and come with a ten-year warranty.
Research environments using many different types of chemicals have special storage requirements. Whether using acids, bases or solvents, it is critical that incompatible liquids are segregated to avoid disastrous explosions or fire. The SDS (Safety Data Sheet) should be reviewed to determine chemical characteristics and recommended storage practices.
