36 or 45 tonnes safe working load.
The Hammar 153 model is a combination of the Hammar 155 and Hammar 151 model, with two different support legs, the 155 Step-Over support leg and the 151 Precision support leg.
The Step-Over support leg unfolds and extends 3.2 meters outward in a ”step-over” motion. This allows fast and easy transfer operations by placing the support leg at ground level on the opposite side of the companion chassis, while also giving extra stability. The second "Precision" support leg" is extending and tilting, making its positioning very flexible.
Combined this allows for fast and efficient transfer operations, while retaining a lot of versatility during more complex operations compared to only using one type of support leg. The Hammar 153 is an excellent choice when you have multiple transfer operations but want to retain the versatility of the precision support leg.
Lifting from/to ground
The Hammar 153 Sideloader handles containers to/from the ground easily and with high stability. A full handling cycle only takes 3-4 minutes.
Transfer from/to another chassis
The Hammar 153 Sideloader can easily transfer to/from another chassis, including many rail wagons. Using the Step-over leg tunnel the truck can drive away safely without needing to wait for the Sideloader to finish the operation. A transfer operation can also be performed from a companion chassis to the ground, while the Sideloader is already loaded with another shipping container.
Stacking option
The Hammar 153 can be equipped with 30 tonnes stacking capacity, enabling stacking of two high cube containers. Two extra support legs are mounted on the non-lifting side for extra stability and safety.
The two different support legs
The StepOver support leg can be placed at ground level on the opposite side of the companion chassis, or in a folded position on top of the chassis. The precison support leg can be placed behind/in front of the companion chassis, or on top or under it depending on the situation. When handling a lighter load, the precision leg can also be placed vertically down.
When buying a Hammar Sideloader you always get a high quality Hammar designed chassis, optimized and made for Sideloader operations. We have a number of models to fulfil our customers’ requirements, which are then adapted to suit local regulations and the customer’s needs.
Fixed Chassis, Sliding Cranes - 153 S
The S-chassis is a fixed length, and has sliding cranes meaning it can handle multiple container sizes. It has a straight forward design and the lowest tare weight of all Hammar chassis. It is the most common model used world-wide. Also available with fixed cranes for single size containers upon request.
Truck mounted, 153 B
The Hammar 153 can be mounted directly on a truck chassis. This provides the Sideloader with unbeatable manoeuvrability where 20’ container handling is required.
Axle configurations
We offer different axle configurations to your Hammar chassis; different numbers of axles, optimized weight distribution and more. All conforming to local regulations and your needs.
Road train options
A Hammar chassis can be built with a 5th wheel/turntable or a drawbar coupling for towing another semi-trailer or trailer behind. This allows you to have a road train that you can load and unload with the Sideloader.
Load & container size adaptions
Hammar can adapt your Sideloader to carry various sized containers or other loads. We can build the chassis to fit containers from 5' to 60' and have wide range of other solutions for other loads or containers requiring additional equipment.
Low bed chassis
A Hammar trailer chassis can be built as a low bed chassis, giving a significantly lower overall height when loaded. Excellent for extra high loads or other situations that restrict the height of the vehicle.

Choose what, when and how you can lift with your Hammar Sideloader.
2x20' capacity
A centre container beam with 4 twist locks is mounted. With the 2 twin-locks (joiners) included you can connect and lift 2 lightly loaded 20' containers simultaneously. Heavier can be transported.
Extendable cranes
Equip the cranes with extendable over arms. Choose the short, medium or MegaReach model. The MegaReach can stack two empty containers in the 2nd row.
Dangerous goods
The Hammar is equipped and adapted for handling of dangerous goods according to local regulations.
Composite foot plates
Two foot plates of recycled composite material. Placed under the support legs or trailer landing legs, they drastically reduce the ground pressure. Comes with storage brackets on the Hammarlift.
Stacking capacity
Equip your Hammarlift with the capacity to stack two containers high, from ground level. N/A for model 130 and 140.
Make operations and maintenance smoother and more efficient
Automatic container twist locks
Automatic crane twist locks for more efficient operations and less room for human error. Connected to automatically open/close when the crane power is engaged/disengaged.
Hammar Optical positioning equipment
“HOPE” - Optical sensors reading the position of a container next to the Sideloader when lining up, alerting with a green light when cranes are in correct position for lifting. Increases efficiency.
Toolbox
Alloy toolbox mounted on the non-lifting side of the Hammar Sideloader.
Lifting axle
Lifting one axle when driving with less load. Saves greatly on tyre wear. Lowers automatically when maximum legal load is reached on the other axles.
