Mann Co. Supply Crates are tool items obtainable only through the item drop system. They are shown as open-style wooden shipping crates, wrapped in chains held with a comically large padlock. Mann Co. Supply Crates can be opened with the use of a Mann Co. Supply Crate Key.

When a crate is opened, a five second timer ticks down, alongside a sound effect of chains jangling and wood creaking. The player will receive one of a set of items, which are listed in the crate's description and are dependent on its series. This item is announced to the server in a similar format to regular dropped Items. The crate and key are removed from the player's inventory and replaced with the uncrated item.

Notes

*Drop rate is the observed drop rate.

**Estimated drop rate is an estimate as to what Valve has set the drop rate to be.

Notes

• As of the November 19, 2010 Patch, Series #1 and Series #2 crates no longer drop in game. People with Series 1 and 2 crates still have the attributes set to 1 and 2, but they take on the schema ID of Series 3 and 4 crates, respectively.

Trivia

• Although Valve modeled the padlocked chain for the icon, the padlocked box can't be found in the game files; its textures, however, can be found. The crate itself uses a model that appears to be the same as models/props_hydro/barrel_crate_half.mdl .
