Tandemloc Container Casters are designed to rigidly clamp to ISO 1161 Corner Fittings, commonly found on Intermodal Freight Containers and many Military Shelters, generator set-ups and communication vans.
Once installed, they provide an efficient way of mobilizing at low speeds (non-highway use). The common uses are moving containers in and out of a facility for maintenance, alterations, upfits or for complexing and loading shelters. Towbars are also available and these fit the end hole of the corner fitting. The Container Casters are very rugged products, available in a wide range of capacities and wheel types for different surfaces. The pneumatic casters are recommended for uneven surfaces or when floor damage is a concern. All casters are swivel type with a swivel lock, locking at 90° increments. This offers the user the most flexibility by allowing all to swivel for tight turns or to lock two (rear) if desired when towing.
- FINISH: Top Casterloc is galvanized, bottom caster is painted.
- CALCULATED WEIGHT: See chart below.

Cautions
- When placing or removing casters from corners, use a fork truck, as shown below, to raise or lower the Casterloc. Personnel are to stand clear of adjacent areas to avoid injury if accidentally dropped.
- Casters can allow loads to move on unlevel surface & crush personnel. Lock swivel casters in towing direction & chock before detaching tow vehicle. When towing, swivels on tow end should be unlocked after connecting tow vehicle & before starting tow.
