Forklift Drum Handler

Use the new Morse Forklift Drum Handler to lift, move and pour a drum right from your forklift. You can utilize this device to fully invert a drum by turning it forward 180 degrees. This lifter lets you control the drum tilt function all the way from upright to fully inverted to accommodate your operation’s specific needs.

Forklift Drum Lifter Applications

Arbon Canada offers several models of drum lifters, or barrel grabbers, that can turn your forklift into a high-performance barrel dumper. These devices let you safely handle, lift and dump barrels with capacities up to 55 gallons. Because no tools, power connections or equipment modifications are required, installing the lifter onto your forks is quick and easy.

Operating the lifter involves sliding your forks onto the carrier and securing it with the adjustable T-screws. To grab the barrel, you can align the frame with the drum’s center and connect the chain around it. You can control drum tilting with the chain 360 degrees in either direction.

These lifters are perfect for operations such as:

• Chemical companies
• Recycling centers
• Hazardous waste facilities
• Oil and petroleum companies
• Manufacturing plants

Various model designs from Morse allow you to handle barrels weighing up to 1500 pounds. The drum holder automatically cinches from a maximum diameter of 23 ½ inches to a 22-inch minimum. The vertical bracket on all models adjusts to accommodate barrel heights from 31 to 39 inches.

Advantages of Using a Drum Lifting Clamp for Your Forklift

The primary benefit of our drum handler is allowing your forklift operator to remain on the truck while the machine does all the heavy lifting. These devices are compatible with plastic, steel and fiber drums as long as the lid can support the weight of the contents. Forklift drum lifters also:

• Promote the highest safety levels against hazardous materials and chemical spills.
• Offer an ergonomic alternative to manual handling.
• Pair with accessories to handle multiple sizes of drums up to 55 gallons.

Morse Forklift Drum handlers use the highest-quality metals and a durable design that delivers many years of reliable service.
