A 10-gauge steel mounting plate that secures Klein® MODbox™ toolboxes to a van floor, truck bed, trailer, garage wall or jobsite rack. Choose Half Width for single MODbox organizers and components, or Full Width for one full-width MODbox toolbox or two half-width boxes side by side (compare the Full Width to Klein P/N 54879MB). Compatible with Klein MODbox 1.0 and 2.0. At 10 gauge (about 0.135"), it is thicker than common 1/8" and 16-gauge plates, and boxes seat tightly in the plate, which helps cut down on rattle.

Why steel instead of plastic
-
Walk on it, roll over it: 10-gauge steel stands up to foot traffic and to toolboxes or equipment rolled in and out of a truck bed or trailer, and resists denting.
-
Tight fit, less rattle: boxes seat snugly in the plate, which helps reduce rattle and shifting on the road.
-
Built for vibration: designed for high-vibration spots like truck beds and van floors.
-
Bolt it, weld it or paint it: uncoated versions can be welded in place or painted to match.

10-Gauge Mild Steel (0.1345" | A Little Over 1/8 Inch)
- Best For: Our Heavy-Duty plates: vehicle floors, truck beds, shop workbenches, and heavy modular tool stacks.
- The Advantage: Our stiffest steel. The extra thickness resists flexing, twisting, and rattling under heavy loads and daily job-site use, and it carries the highest load ratings we publish.
12-Gauge Mild Steel (0.1046" | About Two Stacked Dimes)
- Best For: Locking mounts for Husky Build-Out, Bauer, and DEWALT DXL, plus service vans, enclosed trailers, and standard shop layouts.
- The Advantage: A strong middle ground between strength and weight. It handles constant road vibration without adding unnecessary bulk to a mobile rig.
14-Gauge Mild Steel (0.0747" | About the Thickness of a Nickel)
- Best For: Light-Duty Packout plates, battery organizers, accessory mounts, and lightweight shelf accessories.
- The Advantage: A rigid, low-profile mount for lighter gear that keeps your layout clean and your weight down.
1/8-Inch Aluminum (0.125" | Light and Rust Resistant)
- Best For: Open truck beds, roof racks, exterior trailer sides, and wet or salty environments.
- The Advantage: Naturally rust resistant and about one third the weight of steel. It saves weight on a mobile rig and stands up to rain, snow, and road salt.
11-Gauge 304 Stainless Steel (About 0.125" | About 1/8 Inch)
- Best For: Exposed truck bed brackets, marine use, premium shop builds, and wet or corrosive environments.
- The Advantage: Strong, rigid 304 stainless that resists rust without paint or powder coat, even in road salt and harsh outdoor conditions. Available on select plates, made to order.
Note: Sheet metal gauge numbers run inversely. The lower the gauge number, the thicker and more rigid the metal.
What is Proposition 65?
Proposition 65 (officially the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986) is a California law. It requires businesses to warn California consumers if a product can expose them to chemicals that the State of California lists as causing cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
These warnings are required even when a chemical is present in very small amounts that may not pose a significant health risk.
California Proposition 65 Warning
⚠️ WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm. Products sold on this website can expose you to chemicals including lead, nickel, chromium (hexavalent compounds), titanium dioxide (airborne, unbound particles of respirable size), toluene, ethylbenzene, and formaldehyde, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
What our products are made from
Depending on the product, our items may include steel, aluminum, powder coat or paint (including spray paint), threadlocker, lithium grease, and plastics such as acrylic and acetal (Delrin). Metals and coatings can contain or release trace amounts of the chemicals above, especially during cutting, welding, sanding, or coating.
Why is this warning on my order?
BOCO Custom LLC ships products nationwide, so we include this warning to comply with California law. A Proposition 65 warning does not mean a product is unsafe or defective. It means a product may contain a trace amount of a listed chemical. We provide this information so you can make an informed purchase.
