H2 is a pallet-building code used in Chinese terminal practice for a low PMC build (roughly 160 cm), not a contour letter in the IATA ULD Regulations. The ULDR letter H refers to lower-deck contours and is unrelated.

120 cm / 47.2 inFull width is carried up to 120 cm, then the section narrows toward the top.
Permitted width at height
Read as: at the stated height above the pallet or container floor, this is the maximum overall width the build may occupy. A load that exceeds any single row is out of contour, even if it is under the maximum height.

Verification status
Aircraft
No aircraft assignment is claimed. Published sources did not confirm the per-position limits, and guessing them here would be worse than leaving the row empty.

ULDs built to H2
No ULD in the library is assigned to H2; the contour is documented for reference.
