ABSTRACT:
A twistlock for locating and locking a freight container on a container-supporting deck of a vehicle. The twistlock is designed to be welded-in to its operating location on the vehicle deck. The twistlock has a register and a mounting boss which are separate components, such that the mounting boss can be welded-in to a pre-cut hole in the deck as an initially separate component, thus obviating welding-heat-induced distortion of the twistlock. The mounting boss is axially self-aligning in the deck, and the remaining components of the twist lock drop into place.
