FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: transport-packing complete set (TPCS) consists of container with removable anti-shock dampers installed on ends of container. The dampers are interconnected by means of trusses arranged around a case of the container along its lengthwise axis. The anti-shock dampers each are made as a set consisting of at least two flat rings installed before the end of the container and at least two flat rings enveloping side surface of the container case. All rings in the set are arranged coaxially and are rigidly tied by means of lengthwise tubes passing through orifices in the rings. Also the orifices are made in at least two rows so, that their centres are uniformly distributed along concentric circumferences. Tubes passing through the orifices of at least one row interact with the end of the container.
