Convert your closed head steel drums into storage containers with our Drum Deheaders. The DD-9 and DD-9-NS can be adjusted to open steel drums with different thicknesses. The blade is angled for maximum penetration and flattens the cut edge so there are no sharp or jagged edges. Replacement blades available. Model DD-9-NS features a bronze, spark resistant alloy. Model DD-10 features an ergonomic handle allowing smoother operation to cut drum. Quickly remove the head of a steel drum with our Express-Open Drum Deheader. Unique design, model D-HEAD-1, is similar to a household can-opener and is very easy to use. Includes vice-grip style mechanism for securely attaching unit to drum. Inside cutting blade does not leave a sharp edge on the drum. ONLY use either a 1/2" manual ratchet wrench or electric drill to operate the deheader ratchet (ratchet drive not included). WARNING: Improper use of this drum deheader might result in personal injury or damage to the deheader. DO NOT use a pneumatic or electric impact wrench to operate the deheader ratchet.
