Specifications
NoteLifting height limited to 250 mm — heights above this may cause instability

Load ratings are as published in the TLA 2026 catalogue. Site-specific ratings and certification: on request.

Features
  • Built from standard scaffolding components
  • Used on-site to level containers after placement
  • Must be used in combination with a crane or reach stacker to install
  • Typically installed at the time of container offloading
Typical applications

On-site container levelling; short-term height adjustment at the time of placement.

Description

A simple corner jack built from standard scaffolding components, used to level a container on uneven ground once it has been placed on site. Because the trestle relies on the container corner casting for stability, its lifting height is limited to 250 mm — going higher risks instability. Fitting a trestle requires a crane or reach stacker to lift the corner while it is positioned, so it is normally installed at the time of container offloading rather than retrofitted.
