Metal 8 Outlet Mountable Power Strip 2Pack - Wide Spaced Heavy Duty

In this review of the Metal 8 Outlet Mountable Power Strip 2Pack, the bottom line is simple: these strips are built for workspaces that need heavy-duty, wide-spaced outlets and reliable surge protection. The strongest reason to buy is the combination of a sturdy metal shell and eight 0.55in spaced sockets that accept large plugs without blocking adjacent outlets, making them especially useful on a workbench or in a garage. The pair comes with mounting hardware and a long 15 ft cord so they can be placed exactly where power is needed.

Key Features

• Wide spacing: Eight outlets with 0.55in spacing keep bulky adapters from blocking neighboring sockets so more devices fit at once.
• Durable metal housing: A metal shell provides rugged protection for use in a garage, workshop, or other demanding areas.
• Built-in surge protection: The integrated 1200J MOV surge module helps protect connected equipment from transient spikes.
• Mountable design: Includes screw holes and four screws to mount the strip to walls, workbenches, or furniture for a tidy setup.
• Long power cord: Each strip uses a 15 ft SJT 14AWG cord so it reaches distant outlets without extension cables.
• Switched control: A master switch makes it easy to cut power to multiple tools or devices in one action.

Who It's For

This product suits hobbyists, tradespeople, and small workshop owners who need a compact, resilient power distribution solution with room for large plugs and power bricks. The metal construction and mountable layout make it a good addition to a workbench, garage wall, or a standing desk setup where durability and organized power access matter.

Those who need rack-mount power or high-density server distribution should look elsewhere, because the design is not compatible with rack equipment. Also, if a very large footprint or dozens of outlets are required, a larger commercial power system would be more appropriate.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Sturdy metal construction that stands up to workshop use.

• Built-in 1200J surge protection and a convenient power switch add safety and control.

Cons

• Not compatible with rack equipment so it is not suited for server cabinets.

Our Verdict
