How to use

Step-by-Step Installation

Step 1: Align the Containers

  1. Place your two shipping containers side-by-side, ensuring they are as close together, level, and flush as possible.
  2. Locate the adjacent cornerstones (corner castings) where the two containers meet.

Step 2: Insert the Connecting Clamp

  1. Take the connecting clamp and position it between the two containers.
  2. Insert the clamp hooks into the cornerstones of both containers simultaneously, bridging them together.

Step 3: Tighten the Main Bolt

  1. Spin the main bolt by hand to get the threading started and take up any loose slack.
  2. Once the clamp is hand-snug, use a wrench to crank the bolt down firmly.
  3. Pro-Tip: Tightening this securely pulls the containers tightly together, keeping them flush and perfectly aligned.

Step 4: Secure the Lock Nut

  1. Locate the built-in lock nut on the clamp assembly.
  2. Spin and tighten the lock nut firmly against the main clamp body using your wrench.
  3. CRITICAL STEP: Do not skip the lock nut. Tightening it ensures that the main bolt cannot vibrate loose or unscrew over time, keeping your containers permanently locked together.

  • Amanda W.

    Super solid construction with absolutely no welds to worry about. They stabilized our job site storage units perfectly, even through a massive storm.

  • Robert L.

    The hot-dip zinc coating is the real deal for corrosion resistance. After weeks in a harsh, damp environment, there isn't a single spot of rust on them.

  • Chloe V.

    We bought these for a high-capacity transport job and they held up beautifully under heavy pressure. The breaking strength gave our crew total peace of mind.

  • Carlos M.

    Outstanding heavy-duty quality and they are surprisingly simple to lock down and remove. I’ll definitely be ordering another batch for our next cargo shipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do shipping container connectors do?

They lock two shipping containers together so they sit as one stable, aligned unit. The connectors join containers side by side or end to end, which is what you need when you are setting up a multi-container layout and want the units held tight rather than sitting loose next to each other.

How do the connectors attach to the containers?

The connectors and bridge clamps fasten at the containers' corner fittings to draw the units together and hold them in alignment. Because they work with the container's existing corner castings, there is no welding or drilling required to join the containers.

Can these connectors align containers that are sitting unevenly?

Yes, that is a big part of what they are for. As you tighten the connectors they pull the containers into alignment, closing small gaps and offsets so the tops and sides line up cleanly. For the best result, set the containers as close and level as you can first, then use the connectors to draw them together.

How many connectors do I need to join two containers?

It depends on your setup and how the containers meet (side by side or end to end), since you secure them at the corner and bridge points where the containers join. Plan the connection points along the seam where the two containers meet, and confirm the quantity in this listing covers the points you need before ordering.
