Typical applications

Relocating containers on mine sites, farms and construction sites without heavy lifting plant; moving over rough or unpaved ground.

Description

Purpose-built for sites where containers must cross unpaved or uneven ground that defeats standard castors: each bracket hooks into the side aperture of a bottom corner casting and is cinched tight with its heavy-duty ratchet strap — no drilling, welding or modification. The kit suits 20 ft to 40 ft containers, empty only; the rear pair carries the container while the front tows on the ISO tow bar. The standard 6-stud hub keeps wheels, bearings and studs serviceable from any parts shop.
