ABSTRACT:
Members are provided for securing together a pair of freight containers having corner fittings which abut one another, the abutting walls of the corner fittings each having formed therein aligned, elongate apertures. The members comprise an elongate locking member in the opposed sidewalls of which are formed opposed grooves each of generally tapering configuration. On passage of the locking member through the aligned apertures to bring the grooves into axial alignment with the abutting walls, and on subsequent rotation of the locking member about its central longitudinal axis, the edge regions of the walls bounding the apertures are received within the grooves to be urged into locking engagement with one another by the sidewalls of the grooves.
