The tray is made from anti-static black conductive polypropylene.  The grids are stored in a 10x10 individual storage compartments, a flat on one corner to act as a reference. There is a choice of clips to hold the FSB-100 tray and cover together:

  • single piece slide-on clip (100S) which holds the cover on two sides; easy one hand operation intended for storage.
  • pair of band clips (100D) which are pushed over the tray and cover to give more pressure on the centre. This pair of band clips is preferred for shipping and transport
