Custom LeatherCraft (CLC Work Gear) is excited to announce the launch of a brand-new line of Molded Base tool bags and carriers specifically made for trade professionals.

These new CLC Molded Base Bags are reinforced for more wear and tear. Constructed with durable 1680D ballistic polyester and extra webbing around the pockets and handles, these bags and carriers offer more strength to hold heavy tools. The molded bottom base is attached with double-stitched tape binding, designed to keep tools safe and dry, while light enough to carry fully loaded to the jobsite. All bags include a padded shoulder strap, ergonomic carrying handles, large metal zipper pulls, heavy-duty hardware, and multiple pocket arrangements for tool organization within reach.
“The addition of the new Molded Base Bags completes our full-range of CLC tool storage solutions,” said Harry Karapetian, Vice President of Sales for CLC Work Gear. “Since 1983, we’ve offered the largest breadth of line in tool bags, backpacks, combos, belts, aprons, and pouches. And now our tradition continues by offering the best in class, quality-built, heavy-duty molded bags to our product family. We are definitely more rugged than ever.”
Each new tool carrier consists of different configurations of sizes, zippered compartments and pockets depending on trade specific needs. The new Molded Base Backpack can be used across all-trades due to its multi-functional zippered compartments and holders. Its design not only offers enough space to carry tools, but it contains a padded compartment to store necessary electronics such as a laptop or tablet and keeps valuable tools safe. The molded base on the backpack differs slightly from the other models. Its square bottom allows it to lay flat when placed on the ground and consists of softer material for extra back comfort. Plus, this backpack provides more carrying support with three large foam back pads and a 2-way adjustable sternum strap.

The Electrician’s/HVAC Open Top Tool Carrier is designed with a divided main compartment for ample room to store power tools and accessories. A variety of pockets have been constructed to hold testers, meters, pilers, tin snips, screwdrivers and so much more. If more space is needed, upgrade to the Heavy-Duty Open-Top Toolbox, ideally for plumbers and commercial installers. This 15” carrier features a wide-open main compartment with a sturdy handle that rotates from side to side for full access to frequently visited tools. Both Open-Top Carriers include an electrical tape strap, measuring tape clip and closed pockets to prevent smaller parts or valuables from falling out.
The last three CLC Molded Base options are premium quality closed top tool bags. The Technician’s Closed Top is built with 54 vertical pockets to organize a variety of pliers, wrenches, knives, and other hand tools stationed in two zippered compartments that fold all the way down for quick retrieval. Its wide-open center provides enough room to haul power tools, batteries, levels, and other valuables. The 16” CLC BigMouthTM Tote consists of an internal metal frame that allows the main section to stay open for easy access. This tote offers functional space to arrange necessary tools and has many similar features to the largest option in this category, the Contractors Closed Top Tool Bag. This 19” ultimate Contractor’s Tool Bag is designed with a spacious main compartment that pops-up for more vertical room for your power tools, circular saws, accessories, and hard hat. It includes dual heavy-duty metal zipper pulls, a large front closed pocket, and multiple deep reinforced pockets throughout the bag.
No matter the Trade, CLC has a durable tool bag with the right configuration to organize and carry tools to the jobsite. To find out more information on CLC Work Gear’s new Molded Base Tool Bags visit goclc.com. CLC, Work Gear that is built to last.

When it comes to jobsite efficiency, contractors know having the right tool for the specific application makes all the difference—and saving time means saving money. Now, a simple new product for the toolbox can help pros do both: T-Rex® Brute Force™, a ferociously strong, high-performance duct tape.
Traditionally, ropes or chains have been the only option for contractors and installers when they encounter jobsite tasks that require intense strength and durability. Until now as one 36-inch loop of new T-Rex® Brute Force™ can hold more than 700 pounds of weight and offers superior adhesion, so you can quickly secure, fasten and hold loads that you wouldn’t dare attempt with other tapes.
The high-bond, double-thick adhesive allows the tape to stick to rougher, dirtier surfaces and offers a durable, waterproof backing suitable for all-weather performance. Brute Force™ represents the next generation of high-performance duct tapes with patent-pending Forge-Link™ Technology.
“The unmatched holding power and strength of T-Rex® Brute Force™ fundamentally changes what you can do with a duct tape. Where regular duct tape is the go-to for everyday fixes, Brute Force™ is truly an engineering solution,” says Stephen Wagner, product marketer, ShurTech Brands, LLC, the marketers of T-Rex® brand. “The unique technology of Brute Force™ forges the way for the next generation of high-performance tapes.”
T-Rex® Brute Force™ is sold in 25-yard rolls and is available at national mass and hardware retailers. For more information, visit https://www.trextape.com/contractors.
