Buy 20/40 Extendable Container Chassis Tandem

The 20/40 Extendable Container Chassis Tandem is a high-performance, versatile solution specifically engineered for the transportation of ISO standard containers, whether 20 feet or 40-foot in size. Designed with robust construction and precise engineering, this chassis is ideal for industries requiring reliable and efficient container transport, such as logistics, shipping, and heavy-duty cargo handling.

Unmatched Versatility and Durability

This 20/40 extendable chassis is constructed to meet all critical industry standards, including DOT, AAR, ANSI, TOFC, FMVSS, SAE, and TTMA specifications. These certifications guarantee that the chassis not only meets but exceeds safety and performance standards, ensuring that your cargo is transported securely and efficiently, regardless of the conditions.

The chassis features an innovative design that allows it to extend from 29’ -11” when retracted to 40’-10” when fully extended. This adjustability provides exceptional versatility, making it suitable for transporting both 20-foot and 40-foot containers. Whether you are dealing with smaller loads that require a compact chassis or larger shipments needing a full extension, this chassis adapts to meet your specific transport needs.

High Payload Capacity for Heavy-Duty Operations

With a payload capacity of up to 67,200 lbs in the 40’ position and 44,800 lbs in the 20’ position, this extendable container chassis is built to handle the heaviest of loads. The high payload capacity ensures that you can maximize your transport efficiency, reducing the number of trips required and therefore lowering operational costs. This makes the chassis an ideal choice for businesses looking to optimize their logistics and transportation processes.

The tandem axle configuration further enhances the chassis’s stability and load distribution, ensuring a smooth and safe transport experience. The tandem location is precisely measured at 54” from the rear face of the rear bolster, offering excellent balance and control, even under heavy loads. The axle spread of 49” adds to this stability, making it a reliable option for transporting sensitive or high-value cargo.

Built for Compliance and Safety

One of the standout features of the 20/40 Extendable Container Chassis Tandem is its compliance with all major safety and industry standards. Meeting DOT (Department of Transportation) and AAR (Association of American Railroads) requirements ensure that the chassis is suitable for road and rail transport, providing flexibility in your logistics operations.

Furthermore, the chassis is designed with user safety in mind, featuring a kingpin location 24” from the rear face of the front bolster and a landing gear location 100” from the centerline of the kingpin. These measurements are carefully calculated to enhance the stability of the chassis during loading and unloading, reducing the risk of accidents or cargo damage.
