Keeping tools secure, tidy and easy to transport makes every job smoother. KNIPEX understands that, and its Modular X18 Tool Backpack (00 21 50 S) and Robust26 Move Tool Case (00 21 33 S) are proven, practical solutions that combine smart design with a top-quality build, giving tradespeople dependable transport solutions for their everyday kit.

The Modular X18 has been designed with real use in mind. Its front and back panels open fully for easy access while the removable tool board keeps everything in order. A padded back makes it comfortable to carry, even when loaded with a full set of tools.
The bag’s 18-litre capacity is neatly divided into compartments for tools, measuring instruments and even a tablet or notebook. The impact-resistant waterproof base keeps it upright and clean and the outer fabric, made from recycled fibres, is splash-proof and easy to maintain. Magnetic and mechanical FIDLOCK® connectors lock fast but open instantly when needed while heavy duty MOLLE webbing keeps tools tight and secure, with one strap inside and four outside for attaching clips or accessories. With 21 loops and 37 pockets, there’s space for everything that matters.
For those who prefer to wheel their gear, the Robust26 Move offers tough protection in a practical package. Made from impact-resistant polypropylene, it’s dustproof, watertight and able to handle temperatures from -30°C to +80°C.
This 26.4-litre case has 80 insertion options (19 pockets and 61 loops) plus a lockable base tray that can be divided using aluminium separators. The extendable handle and smooth-running wheels make it easy to transport and padlock eyelets provide security on site or in transit. A built-in document compartment keeps paperwork dry and organised.
Both storage systems come stocked with 17 brand tools, including 12 from KNIPEX, many of them VDE-tested to DIN EN 60900. The selection covers essential plumbing and HVAC tools including:
- The KNIPEX TwinKey® Control Cabinet Key (00 11 01) – 10 profiles in one, ideal for standard cabinets and shut-off systems
- Two KNIPEX Cobra® Water Pump Pliers (180mm and 300mm)
- KNIPEX BiX® Pipe Cutter which cuts plastic pipes cleanly without shavings and trims sealing sleeves
- The KNIPEX Tubix® 90 31 02 BK for quick and precise cutting of copper, brass and stainless steel pipes.
The Modular X18 Backpack and Robust26 Move Case have earned their place in countless vans and workshops. Both are built to last with the durability and design detail that make daily work easier. For plumbers and HVAC engineers who expect their gear to stay organised, protected and ready for the next job, these KNIPEX solutions deliver exactly that.
