Drum Clamps
Drum Clamp - Forklifts are truly meant to move, lift and store things placed on pallets. For businesses that utilize drums, they usually require an attachment in order to deal with moving, storing and lifting them. There are a few various attachments that a company could utilize for all your drum storing, lifting and moving needs. These attachments are specifically designed to be able to deal with drum containers - hence there is no risk of damage to the item or drum container when they are lifted, stored or moved.
Drum Positioner And Grab
The drum positioner is available in three or four tine designs. They are operational for the loading and unloading of drums off drum stands, racks and vehicles. This accessory is totally mechanical, thus enabling the operator 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 particular accessory is used for drum pyramid stacking.
The drum grab can be mounted to the forks, with a designed purpose of handling metal drums that have rolling hoops. Though the initial purpose for the design was to deal with steel drums with rolling hoops, the drum grab can help accommodate plastic drums as well. Drum capacity maximum is 210 liters for steel drums with rolling hoops and 220 liters for plastic drums.
The Rotator
The drum rotator is another lift truck accessory which mounts onto the forks themselves. Their objective is to be able to pick up the drum and turn it upside down. The drum is clamped into the drum rotator using a clamp which fits around the middle of the drum. The rotation is done by either a crank handle or a continuous loop chain. The crank handle is utilized for operations that occur beneath shoulder level. For operations which should happen above shoulder level, the continuous circle chain will be used.
Drum tines are straightforward fork mounted attachment which could be used for stacking and unstacking 210-liter metal drums. Stacking involves nothing elaborate, merely simple horizontal placement of the drums. The carriage-mounted attachments lessen the load center of the drums.
Automatic Tongs
Drum tongs are available in semi-automatic and automatic units. They are utilized in the tight head or open topped steel drum styles. The drum tongs could be connected in a few ways to the lift truck. One way is to connect them under a fork-mounted hook. One more way is to connect them to a fork-mounted jib or a carriage mounted jib. Both the automatic and semi-automatic have a drum capacity of 210 liters. With the automatic, there is no requirement for the individual operating it to ever leave the seat of the forklift.
Rim Grip Handler
When drums need storage space with inadequate area available, the Rim Grip Drum Handler is the perfect choice in drum forklift attachments. This accessory will work for either the 210 L drums along with 120 L drums. The Rim Grip Handler operates by utilizing metal jaws in order to grab the rim of the drum. It lifts the drum and sets it down without requiring any space between all of the drums. The average unit utilized in the trade is a zinc-plated handler, even though, this particular attachment is available in stainless steel for the food and drink market.
