What kind of connectors do I need to combine FPUs and configure for a load out and movement?
There are two type of connectors used in the FPU combined systems. One is the Universal Bridge Clamp and the other is the Horizontal Connector. The Universal Bridge Clamp (part # 15150118) is used with the two FPU-8-2 and Boh Cargo 6 combination in order to maintain a 20-ft envelope and allow for use of the ISO pins on trailers and M-1077 Flatracks and eliminate the need for tie down chains. The Horizontal Connectors are used with the FPU 8 and Boh Cargo 12 combination to also maintain the 20-ft envelope. These connectors provide longitudinal and latitudinal restraint for movement only. REMEMBER, do not try to lift combinations while connected together. These specific combination systems were designed for individual loading using unit level MHE or Flatracks. The fully intermodal ASLMS System (currently being developed by BOH for PM- FSS, SBCCOM-SSC) consists of a combination FPU-8-3 and Boh Cargo-12-2 and can be lifted using the appropriate MHE while connected. The ASLMS system will be
