Technical Narrative
The TrippNT 50116 Small Lab Box with Magnet Mount is a single-compartment white ¼″ PVC and ⅛″ clear acrylic supply storage box with a rare-earth magnet backing that mounts instantly to any ferrous steel surface without drilling, screws, or adhesives. The clear acrylic sides (three panels) provide visual inventory monitoring of box contents from multiple angles, allowing quick identification of supply level and type without opening the box. A flip-up or removable clear acrylic top lid seals the single compartment against dust, airborne contaminants, and accidental spillage — a critical feature in BSC-adjacent, fume-hood-adjacent, and pharmaceutical GMP environments where unprotected open supply bins accumulate contamination. The magnet backing repositions instantly as workspace configurations change, moving the supply box to the most ergonomically accessible position without removing hardware or repairing wall surfaces.
At 9″ W x 5⅞″ H x 6⅜″ D and 1.06 lb, the Small Lab Box holds standard laboratory consumable packages including glove box-sized supplies, tube sets, syringe packs, reagent pouches, and similar formats. The companion Large Lab Box with Magnet Mount (50358) provides a larger compartment for bigger supply categories. Backed by TrippNT’s 100% Lifetime Guarantee. MRI UNSAFE: the magnet backing is a ferrous-incompatible component.

Laboratory and Clinical Applications
The 50116 is deployed in laboratory and clinical environments requiring enclosed, dust-protected, visually monitored supply storage on ferrous steel surfaces, including BSC side-baffle consumable supply boxes for cell culture media pouches and tube sets, instrument cart upright supply boxes for syringe and needle packs, pharmaceutical GMP manufacturing area stainless-steel panel supply boxes, cleanroom gowning station supply boxes for face mask and cap sets, clinical procedure room supply boxes on cart uprights for procedure-specific consumable kits, hospital bedside cart supply boxes for small-format wound care supplies, veterinary clinic stainless-steel surface supply boxes, dental operatory supply boxes on metal cabinetry, industrial QC bench supply boxes for standard solution pouches, and any ferrous steel surface position where a closed, clear-sided, dust-protected single-compartment supply box with no-drill repositionable magnetic mounting is required.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Small Lab Box 50116 differ from the Large Lab Box with Magnet Mount 50358 — what supply formats drive the size choice?
The Small Lab Box 50116 (9″ W x 5⅞″ H x 6⅜″ D) is sized for standard small-format laboratory consumable packages: glove box-sized pouches, 15 mL and 50 mL tube sets in strip packs, small syringe packs, reagent pouches, and face mask/cap sets. The Large Lab Box 50358 (11¾″ W x 5⅞″ H x 8¾″ D) accommodates larger consumable packs, full syringe box sets, larger reagent kit pouches, and other supply categories that are wider or deeper than the Small box capacity. Measure your largest supply package before specifying to confirm which format provides the correct interior clearance.
Does the magnet hold the 50116 securely on a BSC side baffle when fully loaded, and what surface conditions reduce holding force?
The rare-earth magnet holds a fully loaded 50116 securely on 16-gauge or heavier cold-rolled steel and standard stainless steel BSC side baffles through normal laboratory operations. Holding force is reduced by: panels thinner than 16 gauge, non-ferrous coatings or thick paint over the steel, and lower-permeability stainless grades (304/316 vs. 430 ferritic). Test with a fully loaded box on your specific surface before fleet deployment. Do not use on non-ferrous surfaces such as aluminum, plastic, or glass.
