Does anyone have a Titan socket rail (organizer?)

[MechanicNamedJohn]

I think I want to get a few of these. I can only seem to find them red or blue online. I know there is a gold, and green also available, but it looks like you have to purchase those with sockets/bits.

Anyway, does anyone have one? They have the sizes etched on the front, does anyone know if the back side is blank? Thanks.

I've never seen those but they might take up too much space depending on how many sockets you have and how big of a drawer you keep them in.

They have a magnetic base with padding underneath.

Here are canadian tire rebranded ones:

Ooooo i like those, except the 1/4" doesn't seem to go high enough.

I like those, black and silver is better than blue and red in my opinion. However the Titans cost less, but worth it to me. It does not say what size though, but it appears to use the standard clips, so I think I am going to order up a few of these. Thanks for posting the link.

EDIT: I do see where you you click the size you want, what I do not see is a shopping cart?
EDIT AGAIN: I guess LIST is CART

Agreed, that's why I wanted to know if the backside is blank.

I dont like those pegs. The socket tends to fall off them. they get worse after you use them as well. They aren't that bad if you keep them stationary like in a stationary toolbox or on a bench but if you plan on moving them at all the plastic craftsman rails with the square pegs are awesome.

They may run a bit more cost wise, but the Gearwrench rail's are the best IMO. I do wish they made one about 2" longer though.

Hansen trays, or if you want to be able to move it out of your box, the snap-on magnetic trays are great. They cost a lot, but once you have them....well worth it

I hate the springy metal clips no matter what brand-they **** IMO I replaced all of mine with Ernst and have removed all the frustration of removing a socket without feeling I was in a wrestling match 90% of the time- or having them fall off the other 10%. Yes the Ernst rails are not cheap...

I also have one aluminum rail that's magnetic with round plastic pegs. Titan? This would probably be ideal but is more expensive than Ernst

 

[MechanicNamedJohn]

So, back to the original question... Does anyone know if the backside of the Titan rails are blank?

 

[rmsg0040]

what do you mean blank. They have a soft padding underneath so it doesnt marr or scratch surfaces

I reckon he wants to know if the back side, meaning directly opposite the front, labeled side is blank so that he might be able to custom-label or add pegs for sizes not included.

I could be wrong, though.

I have the 1/4" rail, the are no markings on the back side. I will double check at work in the morning. If you want I can snap some pictures.

Thank you!

I looked long and hard at buying titan on a value for price basis and in the end decided to buy the older version of the magrails vim were clearing out at $5 per rail (60 rails)

I got mine at tool king. I like shorter length.

I bought them two years ago for the shorter length and aluminum base, but the clips are pretty bad. They're just flat bent spring steel sections, and tend to catch on the sockets. Although I've had bad plastic holders on other rails, of course (too large or too small). The spacing of the etched numbers can be odd, and they tend to leave out the commonly used one-size larger socket!
