Drop Frame Chassis and ISO Tank Chassis

Tank container chassis (also called drop frame chassis or tank chassis) are heavy duty equipment used for the intermodal transportation and storage of tank containers which haul bulk liquids, gasses and sometimes powders. Tank chassis offer the flexibility to transport tank containers to locations which are inaccessible by rail. Tank container chassis are designed for bulk liquid loads that are prone to shifting during transport. They have a lower deck height than box container chassis in order to lower the center of gravity which improves stability and reduces the chance of a roll-over.

When you lease a durable, lightweight, heavy duty ISO tank chassis from Penn Intermodal Leasing, LLC you lease a cutting edge chassis on the leading edge of safety.

Drop frame chassis enable the safe, stable transportation of bulk liquid tank containers. ISO tank chassis are available in axle configurations which include: spread axle, closed tandem and tri-axle configuration. Hi-Lo models are also available for moving one (1) full or two (2) empty ISO tank containers.

Modern, lightweight drop frame tank chassis from Penn Intermodal Leasing, LLC are used for hauling  ISO tank containers and  come equipped with all required safety features and certain units also include popular safety features for ease of loading, unloading and maintenance. Depending on the model, chassis safety features may include a full-frame walkway with exits on the side and in the rear, and a rear step. In addition, lift-kits are included on most chassis to elevate the rear of the tank during loading and unloading in order to facilitate emptying of the tank container.
