Technical Narrative
The TrippNT 50981 Chart Holder is a single-station clear 0.100″ shatterproof PETG open U-bend wall holder engineered to keep paper charts, clipboards, binders, tablets, and files immediately accessible at the point of care or point of use without clipboard hooks that fall, shelf pockets that obscure content, or enclosed holders that require a lid-open operation before access. The U-bend channel design supports any document package up to 1″ depth across its 9¼″ W opening — wide enough for standard letter or A4 chart formats, standard-format clinical clipboards, ring binders up to 1″ thick, and consumer tablets in landscape orientation. Curved PETG corners eliminate sharp edges at the document-to-holder contact points, preventing paper damage and providing a smooth grip surface during insertion and removal. Keyhole slots with included hardware mount directly to gypsum board, wood-panel, or tile walls above or beside clinical workstations.
At 9¼″ W x 7¼″ H x 1″ D and 0.46 lb, the 50981 is the lightest unit in the TrippNT wall-holder line and the lowest-cost permanent chart access solution in the catalog. Ships fully assembled. Backed by TrippNT’s 100% Lifetime Guarantee.

Laboratory and Clinical Applications
The 50981 is deployed across laboratory and clinical environments requiring point-of-use chart and document staging, including hospital bedside chart holder stations, clinical exam room paper chart staging, nursing station individual patient chart holder positions, laboratory SOPs and logbook staging adjacent to instruments, pharmaceutical GMP batch record staging at processing stations, dental operatory treatment chart staging, veterinary clinic exam room patient chart staging, physical therapy room patient chart holder positions, ambulatory surgery center pre-op chart staging, academic laboratory safety sheet staging adjacent to chemical storage, industrial QC workstation procedure document holder positions, and any fixed workstation where paper or binder-based documentation must be immediately accessible without occupying bench space and without a case or sleeve that requires opening before access.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the 50981 securely hold a loaded clipboard with a stack of multi-page chart forms, and what is the maximum content depth that sits securely without tipping forward out of the U-bend?
The U-bend channel supports loaded clipboards and document sets up to 1″ total thickness. A standard metal clipboard with 20–30 pages of chart forms (approximately ⅜″–½″ combined thickness) sits securely in the channel. The U-bend geometry keeps content upright through normal wall-proximity airflow and light incidental contact, but the design is not a closed enclosure — content that extends significantly above the 7¼″ holder height (e.g., a very tall binder held near its top edge) may lean forward in high-traffic airflow environments. For tall binders over approximately 10″ H, the chart holder provides the bottom-support channel; the binder leans against the wall above the holder frame, which is the standard use-case for wall chart holders of this design.
Is the 50981 compatible with tablet devices for point-of-care digital chart access, and what tablet formats fit within the 1-inch depth limit?
The 9¼″ W x 1″ D channel accommodates tablets in landscape orientation for most standard consumer and healthcare tablet formats. Tablets in a thin case (under ¾″ combined case+device thickness in landscape) sit in the channel. Standard bare tablets (iPad, Surface Pro, Android equivalents without case) fit without difficulty. Tablets in heavy-duty rugged cases exceeding approximately ¾″ total case thickness may exceed the 1″ depth channel capacity; verify your specific case thickness before deploying bare-count institutional purchases. The 50981 is not a locking tablet holder — it provides open-channel resting access; do not use for unsupervised high-value device storage.
