Moving shipping containers without help from a crane is challenging! But fortunately, the NEVA shipping container wheels come into the picture.

What are Shipping Container Wheels?
Shipping or ISO container tow castor is a Heavy-duty wheel system specially designed to mobilize shipping containers, tanks, equipment or structures with ISO 1161 castings on the corners. The wheels are normally equipped with polyurethane treads to carry the heavy loads, also cast nylon or Pneumatic tyres are used depending on the surface.
What is unique about shipping container castors?
To connect a shipping container wheel to the ISO 1161 corner casting of an intermodal shipping container, the top plate of the castor wheel is equipped with a twist-lock mechanism. This allows the clamping and unclamping of the castor to the container. As shipping containers are used for shipping goods all around the world, the castor wheel systems need to be robust and heavy-duty.
