Abstract
A casket includes a casket shell and a handle bar. The casket includes a side wall with a plurality of external hardware bosses formed integrally and contiguously with the side wall and protruding outwardly therefrom. Each hardware boss is generally hollow and formed to define an interior region that is at least partially bounded by a respective protruded wall offset outwardly from the side wall. A respective first transition wall integrally connects the side wall and respective protruded wall, and a respective second transition wall spaced from the first transition wall and integrally connects the side wall and respective protruded wall, each of the first and second transition walls being formed to include a handle-receiving void, and a handle bar extending through the voids.
