Starting with steel milled in the U.S.A. the safety flammable cabinets feature all welded double wall 18 gauge construction with 1 ½” insulating air space. The door is double walled using 14 gauge steel on the outside wall and 18 gauge steel on the inside. The use of heavy duty 14 gauge steel on the outside wall provides additional strength to the unit in the event of industrial mishaps. The door operates smoothly on 4” heavy duty weld hinges with brass pins and features a 3 point locking system and radius edges. Per OSHA and NFPA requirements the cabinet has a 2” leakproof sill to contain leaks, twin 2” flame arrester vents and grounding connector.
