FAQ – Corner Castings

Which orientations of corner castings are available?

We supply Top Left (TL), Top Right (TR), Bottom Left (BL), and Bottom Right (BR) corner castings; these correspond to ISO orientation conventions and must be placed correctly for device engagement.

Are your corner castings compatible with ISO 1161?

The products are intended to conform to the ISO 1161 interface so that twist locks, spreaders, and bridge fittings can engage correctly; fabrication should preserve ISO face thickness and aperture tolerances.

Do you provide drawings and documentation?

Yes, detailed drawings and catalogue documentation are available on request to support fabrication, QA, and approvals; please request the latest revision set for TL, TR, BL, and BR.

Can these be welded into non‑container frames?

Yes, the castings are weldable and commonly used in fabricated frames and modular skids to create an ISO‑compatible handling and securing interface.

How do corner castings integrate with twist locks and bridge clamps?

Twist locks engage the top and bottom apertures of corner castings for vertical stacking; bridge clamps engage side apertures to horizontally connect adjacent containers; both rely on ISO 1161 geometry for safe operation.

What checks are required after installation?

Verify orientation (TL, TR, BL, BR), face trueness, and aperture dimensions against ISO 1161 tolerances to ensure correct engagement and load transfer during lifting and restraint.
