Technical Narrative
The TrippNT 51817 MRI Core DX Extended Top Cart with Sliding Door is the wide-format variant of TrippNT’s MRI Core DX cart line — a 28⅞ × 33⅜ × 19¼″ (W × H × D), 75 lb non-ferrous HDPE cart that adds a 28⅞ × 19⅝″ extended flat work surface to the standard MRI Core DX feature set: three drawers, six side compartments (two dispensing, four enclosed), PETG sliding-door bulk storage, and a tool holder. The 6-inch wider format and extended work surface accommodate procedure tray setup, tablet staging, and supply preparation tasks that the narrower 22⅞-inch MRI Core DX cannot. All metal components are limited to stainless steel fasteners and aluminum composite drawer fronts — no ferromagnetic hardware. The 2-inch non-ferrous casters provide suite mobility. Ships fully assembled via LTL freight. Always verify MR Conditional status with your facility MR safety officer before deploying near the scanner room.
Constructed from ½″ HDPE, ⅛″ ABS, and ⅛″ PETG, the cart withstands IPA, dilute bleach, and standard MRI suite decontamination protocols. Two comfortable built-in handles in the extended top allow two-hand control during repositioning. Drawer slides use plastic detent rather than steel ball-bearing races for MR compatibility. No drawer lock is provided.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the MRI Core DX Extended Top (51817) and the standard MRI Core DX (51728), and when is the extended top the correct specification?
The 51817 Extended Top (28⅞″ wide, 75 lb, LTL) and the 51728 standard (22⅞″ wide, 65 lb, small parcel) share the same non-ferrous HDPE construction, 2-inch casters, three drawers, six side compartments, PETG sliding-door bulk storage, and tool holder. The Extended Top adds a 28⅞ × 19⅝″ flat work surface with two built-in handles and is 6″ wider. Specify the Extended Top when procedure tray setup, tablet staging, or supply preparation tasks require more usable flat surface than the 22⅞-inch cart can provide. The standard 51728 ships small parcel; the 51817 ships LTL at $339.37 more.
What is the institutional pricing structure for the 51817, and can it be ordered alongside other TrippNT MRI products?
