DESCRIPTION:Bulk containers (or bulk cargo) have three loading hatches in the roof, each with a diameter of approx. 455 mm (1 3/4'). The distance between the hatches (center to center) is 1.83 m (6'). On the port side, there are two discharge hatches, which are sometimes equipped with short discharge tubes to guide the bulk cargo. Alternatively, two discharge hatches can be mounted on the doors to empty the containers.
These containers can also be used for general cargo. Lashing rings are mounted on the upper side rails to secure cargo. Some bulk containers are equipped with forklift bags that allow forklift handling.
USE:Bulk containers are used mainly for the transportation of bulk cargo such as grain, animal feed, spices. However, they can also be used for the transport of general cargo.
