Product Description
Pull a single box from the side of the rack without unloading the boxes around it, and spend less time with the freezer door open. Crystal's UF series covers standard 2", 3" and 5" boxes in layouts from 2 deep x 2 high up to 4 deep x 7 high, so one rack family can outfit an entire upright freezer.
This listing is for Crystal catalog number UF-425, the Upright Freezer Rack for 5" Boxes. Every rack is made of pharmaceutical-grade stainless steel, double welded and finished with smoothed edges, and most models share a 5 1/2 in (140 mm) width. The 6-high 2" models (UF-262, UF-362, UF-462) use 2 1/16 in compartments and are ideal for cardboard boxes, as Crystal notes they do not fit plastic boxes; versions supplied with boxes and 81- or 100-cell dividers are also offered, and lock devices for the 3" racks are ordered separately. LIGHT LABS can help you match Crystal racks to your freezer shelves and storage boxes.
Key Features

- Smoothed Edges – deburred edges protect gloved hands and box corners during loading and retrieval
- Side-Access Design – boxes slide out from the side so individual boxes can be reached without unloading the rack
- Wide Range of Layouts – 2 to 4 deep and 2 to 7 high for 2", 3" and 5" boxes
