Front corner post

EC-COL-F
3D model on request

The corner post is the vertical column at each corner of a container, carrying its stacking and racking loads through the corner castings. We supply front corner posts as a left/right pair, in GP and HC heights.

Description

Every corner of a container relies on its corner post — the vertical column forming the load path between top and bottom corner castings, and carrying the stacking and racking loads. It's also one of the most common forklift and handling damage points. We supply front corner posts as a left/right pair, in both GP and HC heights.

  • Supplied as a left/right pair
  • Available in GP (2.4 m) and HC (2.7 m) heights
  • Forms the primary load path between top and bottom corner castings
