Tool Box Container (Type 2)
Tool Box Container (Type 2) by MKAP Container Sdn Bhd is a marine tool/storage container intended to secure equipment during transport and shipboard handling. It is a structural enclosure with doors or lids, locking hardware and designated lifting/lashing points where approved for those functions. On deck or offshore service it is exposed to saltwater, impact, repeated lifting and water ingress at closures and floor joints. Serviceability depends on intact structure, sound welds, functioning closures, legible identification and preservation of the approved lifting/lashing arrangement. Type 2 distinguishes this execution from other container variants in the maker's range, but the supplied record does not define the detailed dimensional or load differences. Use the manufacturer documentation and certificate data to confirm whether a specific installed unit is approved for lifting, transport, storage or a combination of these duties.
Inspector Detail
▸
Common issues
- Corrosion of the container structure and locking mechanisms in a marine environment if coating maintenance is neglected
- Door seal or gasket degradation affecting weather-tightness
- Lashing point and lifting lug wear from repeated use
- Loss or illegibility of the DNV Type Approval nameplate, making certificate traceability difficult
Inspection checklist
- Visual inspection of structural welds, corners and lifting/lashing points for cracks or deformation
- Door seal and locking mechanism operation check
- Confirmation that the DNV Type Approval nameplate is legible and matches certificate TAS000047U
- Corrosion inspection of the floor and lower structure
Service intervals
| Visual inspection | at each use or at minimum during scheduled maintenance rounds |
| Formal structural or load review | follow the interval stated on the DNV Type Approval certificate and the operator's cargo securing equipment maintenance plan - confirm against the specific certificate conditions |
Critical spares
- Door seal/gasket set matching the container's weather-tightness design
- Locking mechanism and hinge hardware
- Lashing point and lifting lug hardware (matching the original rated fittings)
- Touch-up corrosion protection coating for the steel structure
Safety
- Falling or dropped object hazard if lifting or lashing points are worn or damaged and used beyond rated capacity
- Container weight and working load must be verified before lifting - do not exceed the certified rating
- Sharp edges and corners present a hazard during manual handling
Class survey
Held under DNV Type Approval certificate TAS000047U; condition and certificate validity are typically checked as part of the vessel's cargo securing and lashing equipment inventory review rather than a machinery survey - confirm current certificate status with DNV before relying on it for cargo securing calculations.

Common failures & inspection points
Service & Maintenance
Inspect structure, welds, doors/lids, seals, hinges, locks, floor and approved lifting/lashing points. Keep drains clear and repair coating damage before corrosion becomes structural. Do not weld, drill or modify lifting points or structural members without an approved repair procedure. Where the container is part of a certified lifting system, include it in the applicable lifting-gear inspection and certification regime. Use maker documentation for exact load limits, repair criteria and examination intervals.
