TLA-LSH-ROD-18 / -47 / -73
Operating rods
Long-reach rods for releasing semi-automatic twistlocks from deck level — three lengths covering tiers one through four, so a lashing gang works the whole stack from the ground.
Operation 09 · Lashing
Midlock — automatic fixing cone
TLA-LSH-MIDL-01
Automatic fixing cone that locks the corner castings of two containers stowed side by side, closing the gap between stacks so a bay behaves as one block under a rolling sea.

Features
- Automatic fixing — engages as the container lands, no operator at the stack
- Locks adjacent stacks together across the gap between bays
- Same 250/210 kN rating as the semi-automatic twistlock range
- Classification-society approved — GL, BV and CCS
Typical applications
Side-by-side container stowage on vessel decks and in holds; rail wagon stowage where adjacent stacks must act together.
Description
The midlock sits between the corner castings of two containers stowed side by side and locks them to each other, so a bay of stacks resists rolling as a single block rather than as independent columns. It engages automatically on landing, which keeps operators out of the stack. Rated to the same 250 kN tension and 210 kN shear as the semi-automatic twistlock range it works alongside.
