FAQ – Bridge Clamps

What sizes of bridge clamps do you supply?

We supply 260 mm and 380 mm bridge clamps designed to span the side apertures of adjacent containers’ corner castings for horizontal restraint in side‑by‑side or end‑to‑end configurations.

How do bridge clamps integrate with twist locks?

Bridge clamps provide horizontal coupling via the side apertures of the corner castings, while double ended twist locks provide vertical coupling between stacked containers; both are required for multi‑container assemblies that need restraint in both axes.

Do you offer heavy duty bridge clamps?

Yes, heavy duty bridge clamps are available where higher lateral loads are anticipated; selection should follow an engineered load case and risk assessment.

Are installation instructions and drawings available?

Yes, we provide operating instructions and drawings, including connection details, to support correct placement, torqueing, and inspection procedures for safe operation.

Are bridge clamps suitable for vertical stacking alone?

No, bridge clamps are for horizontal restraint; vertical stacking requires rated double ended twist locks engaging the top and bottom apertures of the corner castings.
