Tank Container Chassis & Iso Tanks Containers

Tank Container Chassis & ISO Tanks Containers: Background

Tank container chassis & ISO tanks containers were invented to help facilitate the transport, storage and handling of bulk liquids. Tank container chassis are used to hold ISO tanks containers, and are designed specifically for liquid cargo. The lower height of tank container chassis provides a lower center of gravity, to compensate for the constantly shifting weight of containers holding bulk liquids. Today’s tank container chassis & ISO tanks containers are lighter, safer and more space efficient than ever.

Tank Container Chassis & ISO Tanks Containers: Description

Tank container chassis are typically much longer than the average 20ft container chassis, and have a drop-frame design to lower the center of gravity. Drop frame tank container chassis are available in spread and tandem axle configurations. Storage chassis are used for in-plant storage of ISO tanks. Tank container chassis usually measure 40-43ft in length by 8 x 4ft wide x tall. Instead of straps or chains, specially designed locks hold ISO tanks containers securely in place during transport. ISO tanks containers are designed to make loading, cleaning and re-loading safe and economical, saving time and reducing environmental effects.
