Corstat 1849 Open Bins In Plant Protection 18 x 4 x 9 in, 25/cs
Corstat 1849 — ESD Open Bin, In-Plant Protection, 18 x 4 x 9 in, 25/Case
The Corstat 1849 (SKU: 1849) is a permanently ESD-safe open bin measuring 18 x 4 x 9 inches, sold in cases of 25. Designed for in-plant protection of DIP tubes, ICs, and other static-sensitive components, Corstat open bins eliminate the need for ESD bags in storage and in-process handling applications. They clean up storage areas, reduce labor costs associated with bagging and unbagging components, and provide a permanently conductive ESD-safe environment without the ongoing cost of consumable bags.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Corstat open bins permanently ESD safe?
Corstat open bins are manufactured from a permanently conductive material — the ESD protection is built into the material itself, not applied as a coating or treatment that can wear off over time. This means the bins maintain their ESD-safe properties throughout their service life without requiring replacement or re-treatment, unlike some dissipative coatings that degrade with use and cleaning.
How do Corstat open bins replace ESD bags?
In many in-plant storage and handling applications, components are stored in ESD bags simply because no better alternative is available. Corstat open bins provide the same ESD-safe environment as a bag but in a rigid, reusable, open-top format that allows immediate access to components without opening and resealing bags. This eliminates the labor cost of bagging/unbagging and the ongoing material cost of consumable bags.
What components are the Corstat 1849 bins designed for?
The 1849 (18 x 4 x 9 in) is sized for DIP tubes, IC tubes, component reels, and other elongated or medium-format static-sensitive components. The open-top design allows DIP tubes to be loaded and unloaded quickly without removing the bin from the shelf. Contact MTE Solutions for help selecting the right Corstat bin size for your specific components.
Are Corstat open bins stackable?
Corstat open bins are available in open and stackable formats. Contact MTE Solutions to confirm whether the 1849 is available in a stackable configuration and to explore the full range of Corstat bin sizes and formats for your storage system.
Is the Corstat 1849 available in other sizes?
Yes. Corstat open bins are available in a wide range of sizes to accommodate different component formats and storage configurations. Additional sizes are available without tooling charges. Contact MTE Solutions for the full size range and volume pricing on cases of 25.
