EC-BOLT-D1The ABD-D1 bolted-on dovetail twistlock fixes a container to a concrete foundation or steel structure through a 16 mm base plate, with no permanent modification to the container.
This is the bolt-down member of the dovetail family: a single casting in the 45° dovetail geometry, mounted on a 16 mm base plate that bolts straight into a concrete foundation or steel structure. It shares the same casting and heat-treatable steel as the standard dovetail twistlock, so it carries the identical 250 kN tension / 210 kN shear safe working load. It's supplied hot-dip galvanised in left-hand and right-hand versions. Where the base-plate footprint or bolt pattern needs to be different, our fabricated boltable range covers those configurations.
Permanent concrete foundations for containers; bolting to steel structures; container buildings and site offices; installations where on-site welding isn't permitted.

This manual double-ended twistlock locks ISO corner castings together for safe vertical stacking. Throw the hand lever from side to side to lock or release, with lever position giving a clear locked/unlocked indication.
EC-DMTL-01
This semi-automatic twistlock engages the moment one container lands on another, so crews only need to pull a toggle to release it — a fast, at-a-glance way to keep ship turnaround moving.
EC-SATL-01
Built for the busiest terminals, this fully automatic twistlock locks itself when containers stack and releases on lift — no operator needed anywhere near the stack.
EC-FATL-01
This horizontal twistlock couples two 20 ft containers end to end into a single 12 m unit, or side by side, and doubles as a fixing point for walkways, masts and other structures on the corner casting's side aperture.
