Top-Grip Fork-Mount Drum Grabbers


For Maximum of 1 Container	For Maximum of 2 Containers

The jaws automatically grip the top of the drum when lifted with a forklift—great for areas with limited side clearance. The jaws release when the drum is set down. Grabbers have locking screws that clamp down on the forks to secure the grabbers to your forklift. Use with closed- and open-head drums.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Protectors—Drum grabber protectors (sold separately) bolt to the base of the grabber to cushion and protect the drum from wear (mounting hardware included). Drum grabbers for two containers require two protectors.

Image of Specification. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Near-Vertical Drum.

Lift heavy drums without risking injuries and chemical spills. These slings are cost-effective compared to drum lifters, but you may need an extra person to guide loads since drums can sway.

Vertical Lift


Style A	Style B	Style C

Move upright drums on and off pallets and trucks.

Steel Hooks—Your go-to for most jobs, the steel hooks lift drums by their rims.

Steel Clamps—Two spring-loaded clamps snap onto the drum rim and hold tight, so your drum won’t slip from jolts and sudden stops. Although they're more secure than hook grips, they can dent your drums.

Polyester Straps—Wrap around drums to move them without causing dents. These slings also lift damaged drums that hooks won’t grip tight.

Manual Drum Lift Trucks

Lift, transport, and place drums without a forklift. Roll these trucks right to the edge of your pallet or platform to load and unload drums. Back swivel casters make them simple to steer.

V-Style Base—Gas-Spring Pump Handle

Trucks with a gas-spring pump handle raise your drum as you pump down the handle. The leverage of the handle and the power of the gas spring alleviate the weight of the load. Built to prevent tipping, a ratchet mechanism keeps your movements controlled. Three hooks securely hold the drum below the rim.

Polypropylene Wheel—Polypropylene wheels are lightweight and work on smooth surfaces.

Tilting Pail Lifters

Hook these lifters to a crane or hoist to pick up 5-gallon pails and pour out their contents. A hand wheel rotates the pail 360° in either direction, so you can easily dump adhesives, paint, or chemicals into containers without spilling or splashing. You can lock the wheel at any angle—in 45° increments—to control the flow of material. A bracket fits over the top of the pail to keep it from falling when it’s upended. These lifters also have a ratcheting strap to secure the center of the pail.

These lifters work with straight- or tapered-wall pails. Measure diameter at the pail’s midpoint.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Pull-Chain Fork-Mount Drum Dispensers

Style A

Style B

Slide these dispensers onto the forks of a forklift to raise a drum, then use the hand chain to tilt and drain it from up to 10 feet away. Drums can rotate 360° in either direction. Chains or straps with ratchet-style tighteners secure the drums. Note: In half-full drums contents shift, which reduces capacity.

Drum adapters fit inside the saddle to hold 30-gallon drums.

Tilt brakes prevent the drum from tilting when not in use.

Bracket kits for fiber and plastic drums retrofit Style A dispensers to have the same capabilities as Style B dispensers. They bolt onto the side of the drum saddle and clamp to the top and bottom of the drum to give the dispenser enough stability to be used with rimless plastic and fiber drums.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Style B—Style B dispensers have a built-in bracket assembly that grips the drum from the top and bottom, allowing them to lift rimless fiber, plastic, or steel drums.

Hydraulic Drum Handlers


Style A	Style B

Style C

A hydraulic lift raises the drum to the required height, and a manual tilt mechanism positions the drum at the proper angle for emptying. Handlers can rotate the drums 360° in either direction. A drum saddle with a chain and ratchet-style tightener secures the drum, and a floor lock keeps these handlers stationary.

Drum adapters fit inside the saddle to hold 30-gallon drums.

Bracket kits for fiber and plastic drums bolt onto the side of the drum saddle and clamp to the top and bottom. They give the handler enough stability to be used with rimless plastic and fiber drums.

Note: In half-full drums contents shift, which reduces capacity.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Hand-Crank Tilt Mechanism—Handlers with a hand-crank tilt mechanism are best for dispensing at lower heights.

Chain-Hand-Wheel Tilt Mechanism—Handles with a chain-hand-wheel tilt mechanism are easier to use at higher dispensing heights.

Styles A and B—Styles A and B have a hand-operated hydraulic lift to position the drum at the required height. They require minimal assembly.

Style C—Style C have an electric hydraulic lift that raises the drum with the push of a button and positions the drum at the required height.

Hydraulic Drum Handlers with Chute

With the push of a button, the electric hydraulic lift raises the drum and a chute controls the flow of the material being dispensed to prevent splashes and spills. A clamp on each side of the chute secures the drum. Handlers have a handheld pendant switch and operate only when the push-buttons are engaged. A limit switch turns off the motor when the drum reaches the maximum height. Load will not drop in the event of a power failure. Screw-down floor locks keep handlers stationary during operation.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Battery-Operated Fork-Mount Drum Dispensers


Dispenser	Push Button Tilt Mechanism

From the comfort of your forklift, just push a button to dispense heavy drums into large containers, vats, and hoppers. The battery-powered tilt offers greater precision than a manual tilt for a smoother, more controlled pour. You can rotate drums 180° in either direction. It takes about 15 seconds to fully invert them. On a single charge, you’ll be able to empty about 70 drums. These dispensers slide onto your forklift forks and secure with thumb screws. A chain with a ratchet-style tightener holds the drum in place.

Drum adapters fit inside the saddle to hold 30-gallon drums.

Bracket kits for fiber and plastic drums bolt onto the side of the drum saddle and clamp to the top and bottom of the drum. They give the dispenser enough stability to be used with rimless plastic and fiber drums.

Note: Contents shift in half-full drums, which reduces capacity.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Raise, transport, tilt, and drain full drums using the hook of a crane or hoist. A lock on each side of the frame keeps the drum vertical or horizontal during transport.

Drum adapters fit inside the saddle to hold 30-gallon drums.

Tilt brakes hold your drum in place if chain is released.

Fork pockets allow these lifters to be moved with a forklift.

Bracket kits for fiber and plastic drums bolt onto the side of the drum saddle and clamp to the top and bottom of the drum. They give the lifter enough stability to be used with rimless plastic and fiber drums.

Note: In half-full drums contents shift, which reduces capacity.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Chain Grip—Lifters with chain have a ratchet tightener to secure the drum.

Pad Grip—Lifters with pads have adjustment screws to secure the drum.

Battery-Operated Drum Lift Trucks

Lift heavy drums in seconds—without ever touching them. Powered by a battery-operated hydraulic pump, these trucks grip, lift, lower, and release drums with the push of a button. No manual pumping required. The claw-style grabber won’t release the drum until it’s fully set down. With a lift height over 3 ft., these trucks can stack two drums or load them into most pickup trucks. A V-style base makes it easy to load and unload drums from pallets and platforms. Plug these trucks into any standard wall outlet to charge the battery.

Retractable legs let you maneuver in tight spaces, and two swivel casters at the back of the truck make steering and pivoting easy. Once the truck is in place, engage the floor lock to keep it stable while you lift and lower loads. The wheels are phenolic, so they’re nonmarking and roll best on smooth surfaces.
