Rousseau 62” R-Series Multi-Drawer Tool Cabinet Cart

The Rousseau 62" R-Series multi-drawer tool cabinet cart is the largest and most complete mobile storage format in the R-Series lineup. At 62" wide and 46-1/2" tall, every model on this page includes a steel work surface on top, making these full mobile workstations rather than pure drawer carts. The steel top creates a durable work area on the cart for layout, assembly, inspection, or staging tasks alongside stored tools and parts, eliminating the need for a separate bench at the job site.

Two configurations are offered. The 14-drawer format (R5GHE/G-3803/3804) features 14 drawers, a door section at the top, and a steel work surface. The 8-drawer format (R5GHG-3807/3808 and R5GHE-3807/3808) reduces the drawer count in favor of a door section with two enclosed shelves, suited to operations where some items need organized shelf access alongside the drawer positions in the same mobile unit.

Two depths are available: 24" (R5GHE) and 27" (R5GHG). All carts run on 6" polyurethane casters rated at 900 lb each with full-extension slides and 400 lb per drawer capacity. All are manufactured in North America.

Selecting the Right Cart:

♦ Depth, 24" (R5GHE) vs. 27" (R5GHG): The 24" depth provides a slightly smaller footprint for tighter aisle clearance. The 27" depth adds drawer and shelf interior space for longer tools, wider trays, and items that need more front-to-back room. Note that the 27" models (R5GHG) include two shelves in the door section, while the 24" 14-drawer models (R5GHE-3803/3804) may not be verified before ordering whether shelves in the door section are required.

♦ 14-drawer format (3803/3804 series): Maximum drawer count in the 62" mobile format. Four 3" shallow positions for inserts, small tools, and gauges; seven 4" positions for mid-size tools and organized parts; two 6" and one 8" for larger items and heavy tooling. Suited to operations where a highly organized drawer count is the priority, and the door section provides enclosed storage for overflow or documentation.

♦ 8-drawer format with shelves (3807/3808 series): Fewer drawers in exchange for two enclosed shelves in the door section. The shelf positions accommodate items that are too large or irregularly shaped for drawers -- manuals, larger fixtures, bulky components, or equipment that benefits from open-shelf access within a locked-door section. Suited to operations where the working set is a mix of drawer-appropriate and shelf-appropriate items.

♦ Partitions: Models marked "Yes" include drawer divider partitions. Models marked "No" have open interiors.

Where Commonly Used:

♦ Mobile Tool Workstations for Large Bays: Rolling a complete mobile workstation with a steel work surface, organized drawers, and enclosed storage to the machine, vehicle, or assembly position being worked on, eliminating the need for both a stationary bench and a separate tool cart at the job site.

♦ Aerospace and Defense Program Support: Program-specific mobile workstations where the steel top provides a layout and inspection surface, the drawers hold all program tooling and instruments, and the door/shelf section stores documentation, calibration references, and larger items not suited to drawers.

♦ Heavy Manufacturing and Maintenance: Moving a full-capability mobile workstation to large equipment or production lines where work occurs over extended periods, keeping all tools, parts, and a work surface in a single mobile unit at the job site for the duration.

♦ Die Shop and Press Support: A mobile workstation that holds dies, punches, inserts, and associated tooling in organized drawers at 62" width, with the steel top available for setup inspection and layout work directly at the cart before the tooling goes into the press.

♦ Technical and R&D Environments: Supporting prototype and development work where the steel work surface and highly organized drawer count make the cart a self-contained mobile workstation for technicians moving between benches, test stations, and assembly positions in a large facility.

♦ Tool Crib Mobile Dispensing with Work Capability: Issuing tools and providing a controlled work surface at the point of use in facilities where tool crib mobility is important, and workers benefit from having a flat work area at the cart rather than relying on the nearest available bench.
