Description
Our overhead Drum rotators can accommodate drums from as small as 50 litres up to 220 litres including steel and plastic drums. It comes with a second securing method called the Rim Locking Device that promptly eliminates any possibility of drum slipping while handling them. With its universal stainless steel rum Band, you can now handle from 50 up to 220 litres of drums while another unique feature, a Sliding Pivot allows you to quickly adjust the diameter of the band to lift drums of any size.
