Includes the label tab (36°, 15.85 mm), the finger scoop, the 0.95 mm wall and the standard stacking lip. No magnet holes in this file, so it prints without supports; add 6 × 2 mm magnet or M3 screw holes in the customizer.

What fits in a 2×4×6

Counted lying flat in one layer, below the stacking lip, so bins still stack. Real parts vary, so allow a little slack.

Questions

What are the exact dimensions of a Gridfinity 2×4×6 bin?

Outside it is 83.5 × 167.5 mm (2 and 4 grid cells of 42 mm, minus 0.5 mm clearance) and 45.5 mm tall including the stacking lip. The body is 6 × 7 = 42 mm; the lip adds 3.5 mm. The open compartment is 81 × 165 mm and 33.8 mm deep below the lip.

How tall a drawer do I need?

On a standard 5 mm baseplate the bin's top is 50.5 mm above the drawer floor, so you need at least 52 mm of clear height. Without a baseplate (bin straight on the drawer bottom, feet only) it needs 47 mm.

How many fit on a 4×4 baseplate?

2 of them, in the 2×4 orientation; rotated you get 2. A 4×4 baseplate is 168 × 168 mm.

How long does it take to print?

1 h 55 min and 76.6 g (25.67 m) of PLA, measured by slicing this exact STL in OrcaSlicer with Bambu Lab P1S profiles: 0.4 mm nozzle, 0.2 mm layers, 228 layers, no supports. Other printers and profiles will differ.
