EC-HITCHC-01A folding ISO tow bar for moving containers on castor wheels — its twistlock ends plug straight into any ISO 1161 bottom corner casting for towing around yards and depots. Choose 18 t or 30 t capacity, with 20° articulation to absorb height differences between vehicle and container.
This is the standard tow bar for moving containers on castors across flat, prepared surfaces. Its twistlock ends connect directly to the bottom apertures of the corner fittings, with no adapter needed, and a 20° rotation range takes up any height difference between the towing vehicle and the container. It's rated to tow a fully loaded standard ISO container up to 18.1 t (40 000 lbs), and folds down compact for storage between jobs.
For towing containers on castor wheels around depots, workshops and yards, and repositioning them on flat ground.
