A kind of tool for which the container is normally intended.
—
For hand tools. Products intended primarily for hand tools — hammers, screwdrivers, pliers, etc. Such a tool has a relatively small size and, most often, a standard shape; so for such boxes it makes no sense to indicate compatibility (see below). Note that such products are not suitable for small items — so if you plan to work with a large amount of “little things”, you should find a container that was originally designed for this (see below).
—
For tools and small things. Containers designed both for hand tools (see above) and for storing numerous small parts. The specific design of such products may be different. So, in classic boxes (see "Type") for little things, a lid with an organizer is most often provided (see below); individual organizers for this purpose have compartments of different sizes; in vests and fanny packs, pockets differ in size, respectively, etc.
—
Only for small items. Containers designed only for small parts — fasteners (bolts, nuts, screws, nails), some types of working attachments (drills, bits), etc. The vast majority of such containers are organizers (see "Type"), although there are and exceptions.
—
For power tools. Containers for this purpose are highly specialized, they are usually made for specific models of
...power tools (see "Compatibility"). This is due to the fact that similar tools (even those of similar purpose and level) differ markedly in their general structure and arrangement of various structural elements. And even if compatibility is not indicated for such a container, most likely it is intended at least for equipment from a certain brand.The number of compartments and/or pockets provided in the design of the tool container (with the exception of organizers, including those built into the lid — for them the number of cells is indicated separately, see below).
The more compartments or pockets, the easier it is to keep numerous items in the container at the same time. On the other hand, more compartments (for the same product size) usually means smaller individual compartments. The most modest models have
up to 10 compartments / pockets, in the most capacious this number can
exceed 30. Of course, when choosing by this parameter, you should take into account the type of container (see above). So, for traditional boxes, the maximum value is actually
20 compartments, and among backpacks there are models with
20 – 30 compartments.
