Tandemloc Autoloc Spreader Container Lifting Frame
Whilst no ground crew are required to lock/unlock the twist-locks, the Tandemloc Autoloc Container Lifting Frame ticks the box for a hands-off approach to container handling. With models suitable for 20ft, 40ft, and now 24ft (available by special request) you are sure to find the perfect frame right here.
There's always more with Tandemloc!
Innovation is a core element of Tandemloc's design- these container lifting frames can connect to specially adapted Tandemloc lifting beams (available on request)Ā to enable lifting of non-containerized loads. What's more, is that the N31000C models have all been subject to Tandemloc's special paint process (watch the last video below) that provides superior protection against the harsh realities of rigging.
