Drum Clamps
Drum Clamp - Forklifts are designed to deal with storing, lifting and moving pallets. For companies that handle products in drums, you will need to utilize an attachment to store, move and lift them. There are several drum forklift accessories that you can acquire for all your drum lifting needs. These attachments are specially meant to be able to handle drum containers - therefore there is no chance of damage to the item or drum container when they are stored, moved or lifted.
Drum Positioner And Grab
The drum positioner can be used to load and unload drums off of vehicles, racks, and drum stands. These are existing in three and four tine models. This attachment is fully mechanical, thus allowing the person operating it to be able to operate all from the comfort of the lift truck seat. Able to move steel, large and extra large plastic drums, its capacity is 210 liters. This attachment is used for drum pyramid stacking.
The drum grab is fork mounted and is designed with the sole objective of handling steel drums which have rolling hoops. Though the reason for the design was to handle steel drums with rolling hoops, the drum grab could accommodate the transporting of extra large and large plastic drums. Drum capacity maximum is 220 liters for plastic barrels and 210 for steel drums with rolling hoops.
The Rotator
The drum rotator is another forklift accessory which mounts onto the blades themselves. Their purpose is to be able to pick up the drum and rotate it upside down. The drum is clasped into the drum rotator using a clamp which fits around the center of the drum. The rotation is executed by either a continuous loop chain or a crank handle. The crank handle is used for operations that happen beneath shoulder level. For operations that should happen higher than shoulder level, the continuous loop chain will be used.
Drum tines are simple fork mounted accessory that could be intended for stacking and unstacking 210-liter metal drums. Stacking requires nothing intricate, merely easy horizontal placement of the drums. The carriage-mounted attachments reduce the load center of the drums.
Automatic Tongs
Drum tongs come in automatic and semi-automatic versions. They are for use in the tight head or open topped steel drum styles. The drum pincers could be attached in a couple of ways to the forklift. One way is to attach them underneath a fork-mounted hook. Another way is to connect them to a fork-mounted jib or a carriage mounted jib. Both the semi automatic and the automatic have a drum capacity of 210 liters. With the automatic, there is no need for the one operating it to ever leave the seat of the forklift.
Rim Grip Handler
The Rip Grip Drum Handler is the ideal option for forklift accessories, whenever there is a need to store drums with limited area accessible. This attachment could be utilized on both 120L and 210L drums. The Rim Grip Handler works by using steel jaws to be able to grab the edge of the drum. It lifts the drum and sets it down without requiring any room between all the drums. The average model in the trade is a zinc-plated handler, even if, this particular attachment is available in stainless steel for the food and drink market.
