Fabricated boltable twistlocks

EC-BOLT-FAB
3D model on request

A dovetail twistlock welded onto a 200 x 200 x 16 mm base plate as standard — the starting point for any bolt pattern, footprint or mounting arrangement a site needs.

Description

Where the standard bolted-on casting doesn't match the foundation, the same dovetail twistlock is welded to a base plate made to suit. As standard that's a 200 x 200 x 16 mm plate, hot-dip galvanised, but from there the footprint, bolt pattern and plate arrangement can be built to the job — single or double, fixed or slide-adjustable, and H-configuration sets for structural framing. Because the casting and weld detail stay the same whatever plate it sits on, the load rating matches the dovetail twistlock throughout. Non-standard arrangements are quoted on application.

Features

  • 200 x 200 x 16 mm plate as standard, hot-dip galvanised
  • Other footprints and bolt patterns fabricated to order
  • Load rating unchanged regardless of plate — casting and weld are identical throughout
  • Individually marked and traceable to a job data book

Where it is used

Container buildings and site offices; MCC and switchgear containerisation; structural framing; installations where the standard ABD-D1 footprint doesn't suit the foundation.
