Upgrade to Tougher Bags

MASONS LOOKING to upgrade their canvas tool bags for heavy duty 1000D nylon bags with reinforced points of wear, water-resistant bottoms and multiple pocket configurations need look no further than the soft-sided tool bags from Irwin Industrial Tool Company.

"We offer a wide variety of size and pocket configurations to suit the needs of most professional users," said Scott Brannan, marketing communications manager, accessories, for the company in Huntersville, N.C. "A mason, like any other professional, wants to safely store his tools in a bag that will provide protection from the elements and the rough environment of an active job site."

The company offers four tool bags ($8 to $40) that are lightweight, yet durable enough to handle a full load of tools. The 22-inch organizer has a steel reinforced frame and is large enough to hold a two-foot level and power tools. The Soft Pro Tray Tool Organizer and the Job Tote Tool Organizer feature vertical storage in multiple pockets that make each tool visible. For more information, visit www.irwin.com.
