Hoist Mounted Drum Lifters for Vertical Steel, Plastic, and Fiber Drum Handling Hoist mounted drum lifters provide a secure way to raise and transport 30 and 55 gallon drums with an overhead crane, hoist, or similar lifting device. Designed for straight vertical lifting, this non-tilting drum handler is well suited for warehouses, manufacturing plants, chemical storage areas, maintenance departments, and material handling operations that need controlled drum movement without rotation or dumping. Secure Drum Support The steel saddle accommodates steel, plastic, and fiber drums up to 24-5/8 inches in diameter. A ratchet strap holds the drum securely in place during lifting, helping improve load control and operator confidence when moving drums between work areas, storage locations, or processing stations. Heavy-Duty Handling Design With a 1,000 lb. uniform capacity, the lifter is built for demanding industrial use. Durable steel construction and a yellow baked-in powder coat finish provide long-lasting toughness and visibility in busy facilities. Forklift Transport Features Integral fork pockets allow the unit to be transported by forklift when repositioning the attachment between departments or work zones. A fork truck restraint strap is included for safer forklift transport.Models & Specifications Model # Description List Price DRUM-LUG OVERHEAD DRUM LIFTER 1000 LB CAPACITY $534.96 Frequently Asked QuestionsHow do I choose the right model?
