Container Locking System

Galbreath, a Wastequip brand, has launched the ROC-LOC roll-off container locking system, with a patent pending. DOT-compliant, it’s said to offer a simple, low-maintenance method for securing roll-off containers for transport.

Galbreath ROC-LOC container locking systemCompatible with most brands of cable hoists, hook hoists, and trailers, ROC-LOC has air-actuated, auto-system airbags that ensure contact with the container and are claimed to need less maintenance compared to similar products on the market. The driver doesn’t have to secure the container manually, saving time and money.

It requires only 60 psi of air pressure and has two single-acting airbags — rather than air cylinders — to keep each arm in the ‘hold’ position. It’s mounted to the side of the hoist frame, below the top of the side rollers, and has independent hooks to ensure contact with the container’s long sills. It’s said to work well in cold climates. It’s designed to work with standard air-shift PTOs.

Included in the ROC-LOC kit are one air-brake protection valve, one air regulator, one pilot-operated check valve, one 12V solenoid, two ROC-LOC hook assemblies, all required air lines and fittings, and comprehensive installation instructions.
