This range of Twistlocks has been designed to secure ISO and special containers to rigid vehicles, trailer chassis and rail wagons in environmental conditions ranging from tropical to sub-zero.
This Twistlock offers the user the following advantages:
- Simply fitted to the vehicle/chassis, usually by welding
- Weldable cast steel body and forged steel stem to ensure rugged strength and durability.
- Securing head retracts below deck level to allow the carriage of non-containerized loads.
- Head can be engaged with container in position, an advantage to swop-body builders.
NB not recommended for tipping applications. See BLR 149 NRS 3HTS.
