Anchor twistlock

EC-ANTL-01 / -02
3D model on request

An anchor twistlock designed to fix an already-landed container to concrete, guarding against wind uplift and deterring theft by upliftment, built around a Hilti chemical anchor.

Description

We designed this twistlock specifically for anchoring a container that's already been set down onto a concrete slab. Its main job is to stop wind uplift; a useful side effect is that it makes lifting the container away far harder, deterring theft. The design lets the Hilti chemical anchor rod go in after the twistlock is already seated, and a through-hole allows adjustment once that anchor is in place. It's supplied in sets of two or four for full corner coverage. A Hilti M20 × 240 mm anchor rod and chemical anchor are required, confirmed at quotation. Two derivatives are stocked, each with its own SKU: a locally manufactured unit and an imported equivalent.
