Product Details
Ford F-150 Fleetside 2001, Single Lid 5th Wheel Tool Box by Highway Products®. Material: Diamond Plate Aluminum. Diamond plate, also known as checker plate or tread plate, is a regular pattern of raised diamonds on one side which combines the looks of toughness and durability. Sharp and Clean! In 1980 Highway Products invented the 5th Wheel Tool Box because customers wanted a box that they could place against the truck cab and still be able to open it. The back of the box is notched so the back of the lid has a place to go as you open it. This space-saving flush mount truck tool box secures to the bed of your truck and sits flush with the side rails. The low profile design increases visibility and allows your fifth wheel to swing freely without hitting the lid during sharp turns. Constructed from 1/8 inch thick marine grade aluminum, this corrosion-free box keeps your tools secure and dry.

1/10" 3003 & 5052 Aluminum
Aluminum's strength-to-weight ratio is far more superior than steel. Steel is twice the weight of aluminum, and no matter what you do, steel will rust. All Highway Products Inc. tool boxes are made from the same material used by the military. This thick, lightweight material is the perfect solution for reducing the weight of your work truck.
Stainless Steel T-Handle Lock
Highway Products ergonomically designed T-Handle locks are the most secure locking mechanism on the market. These locks are constructed from a stainless steel alloy that resists corrosion and rust. As you turn the T-Handle, a 3/4" stainless steel rod locking mechanism secures the lid to the box. Available only at Highway Products.
BOTTLE OPENER — Built in!
For those hard to open beverages at break-time or after work, we've included a convenient bottle opener built inconspicuously into the underside of the lid. Enjoy responsibly.
Gas Assisted Shocks - Keep your lid open
Nitrogen-driven gas shocks are used on all toolbox lids. This counterbalancing action raises the lid for you and keeps it open while you access your tools. The shocks are strategically placed so you can close the lid with one hand.
Fully Welded Hat Stiffeners
Every 6 inches is a fully welded hat stiffener that helps strengthen the cover, and guarantee a zero flex topper.
Full-Length Lid Design
The full-length lid design allows you to access all of Highway Products tools without obstruction. Highway Products add an overlapping lip to the front of the lid so it deflects water and rode grime. This over built lid is strong enough to stand on, making it the strongest 5th wheel box on the planet. Highway Products use 1/10" 3003 & 5052 aluminum, twice the thickness of Highway Products competitors, and weld a stiffener on the underside.
Removable Tool Tray
Tool trays made of plastic will crack, bend and break. These durable aluminum tool trays sit high on the toolbox for easy access. The easy-to-grip handle enables you to remove the tray or you can slide it to the side. This simple, yet functional design allows you to organize smaller items that would normally get lost on the bottom of your toolbox.
Watertight Seal - Keep your cargo dry
Nothing is more frustrating than opening your toolbox and seeing your tools in a puddle of water. Highway Products use Clean Seal™ automotive stripping around the edges of each toolbox to ensure a watertight seal. The stripping is made of closed-cell rubber with a hollow core. This allows the rubber to conform to curves, corners and varying cross sections without bridging or creasing.
Welded Rope Hooks
Adding rope hooks to your toolbox adds extra contact points when you are securing your load. These cast-aluminum rope hooks are welded from the inside of the box for a clean look. These hooks have a closed eye and an open eye for easy and convenient tie-downs.
Half the Weight of Steel
Aluminum is half the weight of steel; allowing a heavier load which gives better fuel economy while carrying additional cargo.
Alcoa Aluminum
Highway Products proudly uses premium Alcoa aluminum to build the highest-quality American-made metal products available.
Lifetime Warranty
All of Highway Products standard products come with a Lifetime Warranty against defects in workmanship. Your warranty includes locking mechanisms, hinges, gas props, weatherstripping, and any other materials Highway Products use.
