Why Choose the ConFoot CFU 45T?

Its reinforced construction, extended operating temperature range and advanced locking system provide exceptional strength, stability and reliability, allowing containers to be lifted and positioned safely without relying on heavy lifting machinery.

How does the ConFoot CFU 45T differ from the CFU 30T?

While the ConFoot CFU 30T Container Lifting System provides up to 30 tonnes of lifting capacity with adjustable positioning up to 1.5 metres, the CFU 45T is designed for applications requiring maximum lifting capacity. With a 45-tonne capacity, reinforced steel construction and an extended operating temperature range of -30°C to +50°C, it’s the preferred choice for handling fully loaded shipping containers and operating in the most demanding environments.

If your business regularly handles heavier containers or operates in extreme conditions, the CFU 45T offers the additional strength and durability required for professional container handling.

How does the ConFoot CFU 30T differ from the CFU 20T?

While the ConFoot CFU 20T Container Lifting System is designed primarily for lifting and positioning ISO shipping containers, the CFU 30T offers the added benefit of continuous height adjustment from ground level up to 1.5 metres. This allows containers to be positioned at the exact height required, making it ideal for loading bays, uneven ground, temporary installations and applications where greater flexibility is needed.

Shipping Container Adjustable Levelling Pad https://universal-containers.com/shipping-container-adjustable-levelling-pad/ https://universal-containers.com/shipping-container-adjustable-levelling-pad/#respond Mon, 10 Mar 2025 09:15:54 +0000 https://universal-containers.com/?post_type=product&p=7332

Our adjustable levelling feet are designed to keep your shipping container perfectly aligned, ensuring trouble-free operation of doors for opening, closing, and locking. Designed for quick and secure stabilisation on uneven terrain, these pads protect both your container’s structure and its foundation.

Features:

  • Adjustability: Height can be set from 75mm up to 260mm
  • Customisable: The pole can be trimmed to achieve a lower height if needed
  • Finish: Galvanised
  • Anchoring: Base plate features four holes for ground anchoring
  • Load Capacity: 12,000KG
  • Dimensions: 300mm x 150mm x 35mm
  • Design: Specifically engineered to fit in the bottom corner caster position of a container
  • Weight: 5KG

Importance of levelling your container:

  • Maintaining Structural Integrity:
    Shipping containers feature a robust, rectangular design where the corners bear most of the load. If these points are not level, the container can twist or warp, which may be evident through cracked panels or misaligned doors.

  • Ensuring Optimal Door Function:
    A container’s door is essential for access and protection against theft, pests, and weather. An unlevel container may cause the door to misalign, making it difficult to open, close, or lock securely.

  • Preventing Foundation Issues:
    An uneven container can settle unevenly into the ground over time, leading to foundation problems. This imbalance may eventually require costly repairs to re-level or reinforce the foundation, in addition to addressing structural damage.

  • Securing Long-Term Stability:
    Consistent levelling prevents the container from shifting over time, protecting both the foundation and the container itself. Proper stabilisation also minimises potential safety hazards associated with unexpected movements.

Installation Instructions:

  1. Mark Placement:
    Precisely measure and mark where each corner caster will contact the ground.

  2. Prepare the Surface:
    Ensure that the levelling pads are installed on a solid, even surface. In certain situations, they may also be permanently fixed to the ground.

  3. Adjust Height:
    Twist the mechanism to set the pad to the required height. If necessary, trim the pole to achieve a lower height.

  4. Position the Container:
    Carefully manoeuver the container onto the levelling pads, ensuring proper alignment.

This unique solution provides a reliable method to keep your shipping container level, ultimately safeguarding its performance and longevity. For those looking for additional solutions, check out our Shipping Container Levelling Slab & Hydraulic Jack Set.
