Products Description
Shipping container caster towbar
How do Tow Bars work?
A tow bar connects the front of the container to the back of the tug or forklift to tow the container. The container must be
equipped with wheels, ISO castors, or placed on a platform for mobilization and stock . To manoeuvre and navigate corners in narrow spaces, we recommend installing the container with ISO castors as these offer the most options to position the container.

1. Ease of use
This towbar approach is extremely user-friendly and can be put to use in a matter of seconds. This towbar is as easily accessible as it is tucked away behind the bumper. This retractable approach offers two significant advantages. Unlike the detachable towbar, you would not have to dismount and stack this towbar anywhere else. Furthermore, when stored behind the bumper, this towbar is invisible in almost any kind of vehicle.
2. Safety
A fixed towbar is commonly assumed to be a more robust and secure solution than a retractable towbar. This is untrue. The foldable towbar is as secure and robust as the fixed towbar. The ball to which you attach your forklift truck, tractor, or tug stays attached to the container at all times. This means it will never come loose while driving.
Step by Step Tow Bar Setup
Step 1: Park on a level surface
Begin by putting your container on wheels and make sure it is on a level, flat surface with enough room to pull and manoeuvre.
Place the tow vehicle (tractor, tug or forklift) in the park and use the emergency brake.
Step 2: Mount the tow bar on the container
Place the two tow bar arms inside the shipping container. Then, use a pin and clip to protect it. Some tow bars have two or more pinholes in the arms, allowing for additional clearance if necessary. It is best to use the tow bar in the shortest position possible.
Step 3: Park your towing vehicle ahead of the container.
Slowly move your towing vehicle ahead of the container, keeping them as parallel as possible. When the towing vehicle is in the approximate tug spot, come to a complete stop, place the towing vehicle in the park, and apply the emergency brake.
Step 4: Attach the Shank to towing vehicle
Connect the tow bar shank to the towing vehicle. If in place, use lynchpins to protect the shank and tab connections.
