Vertical spacer

EC-VSP-01
3D model on request

Made-to-order vertical spacer setting a uniform 400–1000 mm gap (100 mm increments) between stacked containers for services and equipment clearance; rigid, hot-dip galvanised.

Description

This spacer locks onto the lower container's corner castings, and the upper container then sits on top secured with standard double-ended manual or semi-automatic twistlocks — giving a rigid connection suited to exposed, wind-loaded installations. The clear gap it creates makes room for cable trays, pipework, walkways and plant. Lugs, gussets and brackets can be added as options to suit the design. Fits all ISO 1161 corner castings on standard 20 ft and 40 ft containers.

Features

  • Locks to the lower container's corner castings
  • Upper container secured on top with standard twistlocks
  • Creates a clear gap for cable trays, pipework, walkways and plant
  • Optional lugs, gussets and brackets to suit the design

Where it is used

Container buildings needing a services gap, cable-tray, pipework and plant installation below the top container, and exposed, wind-loaded multi-container structures.
