Why Use This Product

Loose hardware in drawers, shared boxes, and unlabeled containers is the most common cause of wasted pick time and inventory errors in a stockroom. The Akro-Mils 30224 solves that by giving every small part its own dedicated, labeled location. Sold in cartons of 12 bins, it is the practical choice when you are setting up a shelf, rack, or workstation at once rather than buying bins one at a time.

The 30224 is the long, narrow bin in the 30 Series, with a 10-1/4-inch interior length and a 9-inch bottom, which suits longer parts such as extrusions, dowels, bar stock offcuts, hand tools, and cable assemblies that will not fit a shorter bin. It keeps the same compact 4-1/8 inch width so it fits standard shelf spacing while holding items most small bins cannot. The hopper front keeps contents visible and within reach, and the heavy-duty polypropylene body resists chemicals and physical stress through repeated daily use. Because the bin is autoclavable to 250 degrees Fahrenheit, it also works in sterile and laboratory settings where most plastic bins are not suitable.

Key Features Explained

Long, Narrow Profile
With a 10-1/4 inch interior length and a 9-inch bottom, the 30224 is built for longer parts that do not fit the shorter 30210 or 30220 bins. The narrow 4-1/8-inch width keeps the bin compatible with standard shelf and rack spacing, so you gain length without sacrificing shelf density.

Durable Polypropylene Construction
The bin is molded from heavy-duty polypropylene that resists water, rust, corrosion, weak acids, and alkalis. This allows it to withstand harsh chemicals and physical stress in industrial environments where lighter bins crack or degrade over time.

Autoclavable to 250°F
The bin withstands autoclave temperatures up to 250 degrees Fahrenheit, which makes it suitable for sterile and laboratory environments. This is a feature most small parts bins do not offer, and it opens up medical, pharmaceutical, and lab applications that require sanitized storage.

Reinforced Ribbing
Molded ribbing along the walls prevents the bin from spreading or bowing under a heavy load of dense parts. This keeps the bin in shape and protects its contents, even when fully packed.

Stackable Design with Built-In Stop
An extra-wide stacking ledge with a built-in stop lets bins stack securely on top of one another for stable vertical storage. This conserves bench and shelf space and lets you build upward when floor space is limited.

Hopper Front and Curved Front Edge
The sloped, open front and curved edge allow workers to reach in and retrieve parts quickly without removing the bin from the shelf. In high-frequency pick areas, this lowers handling time per pick and keeps contents visible at a glance.

Ergonomic Finger Grips
Built-in finger grips make the longer bin comfortable to carry and easy to pull from a shelf. This matters in point-of-use storage where workers handle bins repeatedly throughout a shift.

Large Labeling Slot
A wide front label slot holds barcodes or ID cards for accurate inventory tracking. Clear labeling reduces part mixing and picking errors, especially when similar parts have different sizes, finishes, or part numbers.

Seven Color Options
Available in Clear, Black, Stone, Green, Yellow, Red, and Blue. Color coding supports visual management and 5S programs, while clear bins let workers check stock levels without opening or removing the bin.

Best-Fit Use Cases

♦ Manufacturing and Assembly Cells: Store longer components, such as extrusions, dowels, and bar stock, at the point of use, so workers spend less time searching for parts.

♦ Automotive Repair and Service: Holds longer fasteners, trim pieces, hoses, and cable assemblies in a labeled, stackable format that keeps the bench organized.

♦ Warehousing and Stockrooms: Give long, narrow SKUs a dedicated bin for fast sorting and accurate picking, complementing shorter bins on the same shelving.

♦ Aerospace MRO: Holds longer precision parts for maintenance and assembly in a durable, labeled system that supports traceability.

♦ Medical and Laboratory Environments: The autoclavable polypropylene body allows sanitized storage of longer tools and instruments where most plastic bins cannot be used.

♦ Maintenance and Repair Departments: Keep longer spare parts, fittings, and consumables sorted and within reach during planned and reactive maintenance.

♦ Electrical, Plumbing, and Utilities Work: Organizes conduit fittings, longer connectors, and cable runs for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing applications.

Related Bin Sizes in the 30 Series

The 30224 is one bin in the Akro-Mils 30 Series, which lets you build a complete storage system from a single product family. Common companion sizes include the 30210 and 30220 for shorter parts, the 30230, 30234, and 30237 for wider or deeper loads, and the 30235 for the largest items in the series. Standardizing on one series keeps shelf layouts consistent and makes replenishment easier as inventory grows.
