Product Description
Twenty boxes in one rack, and every one of them within reach. The Crystal Technology & Industries UFD-452 Upright Freezer Drawer Rack holds twenty standard 2" freezer boxes, four boxes deep by five boxes high. Its five full-depth pull-out drawers each slide a row of four boxes forward, so you never have to unload the front boxes to reach the back of a deep freezer shelf.
The UFD-452 is made from pharmaceutical-grade stainless steel with double welds, so it stays rigid when fully loaded and holds up to years of -80°C storage. Smoothed edges make it safe and comfortable to handle with cryo gloves. The compartments fit standard 2" cardboard, fiberboard, and polycarbonate freezer boxes, and the 11 13/16" height matches the shelf spacing in many full-size upright freezers.
The 4 x 5 layout is one of the most common configurations for deep -80°C freezer shelves. For Panasonic/PHCbi freezers, Crystal offers a dedicated version, the UFD-452-S. Stock up on the UFD-452 and the rest of the Crystal drawer rack line at LIGHT LABS.
