Flat spanner holder, school laboratory equipment programme is a holder made of 1.5 mm steel sheet, hung on a pegboard. It is designed to store thirteen flat spanners from size 10 to 22 . Every tool has a fixed place, so a missing item is obvious at once, without counting.
This is the version offered to schools purchasing equipment under the school laboratory equipment programme. The finish is identical to the standard version.

Panel system — how it fits together
This item hangs on a pegboard 647 mm wide, which forms the tool wall of the workbench. The perforation is common to the whole range, so hooks, holders, bins and shelves can be rearranged freely.
In practice this means you adapt the layout of the tool wall to the workstation, not the other way round. A change in the scope of work does not require replacing any equipment — you simply rehang the items.
Why a tool on the wall rather than in a drawer
A tool hung in plain view is picked up and put back without opening anything. For repetitive work this saves a few seconds on every movement, which adds up to real time over a shift.
The second effect is tidiness: an empty space on the wall immediately shows what is missing. In a drawer, a missing spanner only comes to light when it is needed.
school laboratory equipment programme
The school laboratory equipment programme is a government programme for equipping primary schools with equipment for practical classes. The designated version does not differ from the standard one in finish or price — it simply makes it easier to describe the item in purchasing documentation.
Eligibility of the expenditure is determined by the school and its governing body, not by the product designation.
Construction and finish
The steel elements are powder coated with epoxy-polyester paints. The coating is heat-cured, so it withstands rubbing by tools and cleaning with workshop agents without dulling — unlike wet-applied paint.
The standard body colour is RAL 7035 (light grey), and for hanging accessories RAL 6033 (mint green). This contrast is not accidental: the green element stands out against the grey tool wall, so the empty space left by a removed tool is easy to spot.
Furniture and accessories come to you straight from the manufacturer, with no intermediaries — hence a lead time measured in weeks rather than days, and hence the option of matching the colour to the equipment you already have.
Why accessories are bought separately
The workbench is sold with a worktop and frame, without a tool wall fitted. This is deliberate: two workshops with the same floor area need a completely different layout of holders because they work with different tools.
By buying accessories individually, you pay for what you actually use and expand the workstation gradually. The elements are interchangeable within the system, so the order of purchases does not matter — nothing has to be planned in advance.
Where it works well
- School workshops — technology classes and practical vocational training
- Car workshops and service centres — tool organisation at the workstation
- Maintenance — repair and assembly workstations
- Production and assembly — repetitive tasks at the workbench

Will it fit my workbench?
