H-Type Modular Beams, Frame Beams & Container Spreaders

Designed for large tower sections, boxed equipment, bridge precast units and standard 20 / 40 ft containers, sharing the load on four or more points to prevent deformation of thin-wall and long parts.

Key Features

  • I-beam / H-type spatial four-point structure for balanced load sharing across four or more points
  • For large tower sections, boxed equipment, bridge precast units and other long thin-wall parts; prevents lifting deformation
  • DL-01 container spreader covers 20 / 40 ft standard and high-cube containers, 8 ranges from 6 – 40 t
  • Floating twistlock mechanism (40Cr surface hardened, remaining parts in 45# quenched and tempered steel); wide floating range for easy alignment
  • Gear-linkage and intermittent crank-slider transmission; fixed / movable guide plate devices
  • FEM strength verification and weld NDT available against the load profile (as contracted)

Before use, confirm the container corner castings are intact and all four twistlocks are seated and locked; advise us of eccentric load cases in advance so that the beam can be balanced accordingly.
