Drum Clamps
Drum Clamp - Forklifts are really meant to move, lift and store products placed on pallets. For businesses which make use of drums, they normally require an attachment so as to handle moving, storing and lifting them. There are a few different attachments that a business can use for all of your drum moving, storing and lifting needs. These attachments are particularly designed in order to deal with drum containers - thus there is no risk of damage to the item or drum container when they are stored, moved or lifted.
Drum Positioner And Grab
The drum positioner can be utilized to load and unload drums off of racks, drum stands and vehicles. These are accessible in three and four tine models. This particular attachment is totally mechanical, thus enabling the the one operating it 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 attachment is intended for drum pyramid stacking.
The drum grab could be mounted to the forks, with a designed purpose of handling metal drums which have rolling hoops. Although the initial purpose for the design was to deal with steel drums with rolling hoops, the drum grab can help accommodate plastic drums too. Drum capacity maximum is 220 liters for plastic barrels and 210 for steel drums with rolling hoops.
The Rotator
The drum rotator is one more lift truck attachment which mounts onto the forks themselves. Their purpose is to pick up the drum and turn it upside down. The drum is clasped into the drum rotator with a clamp that fits around the middle of the drum. The rotation is performed by either a crank handle or a continuous loop chain. The crank handle is for operations which take place beneath shoulder level. For operations which must occur above shoulder level, the continuous circle chain will be used.
The drum tines are carriage mounted or simple fork accessories. They are designed for unstacking and stacking 210-liter metal drums. Stacking requires nothing fancy, only easy horizontal positioning of the drums. The carriage-mounted enhancements reduce the load center of the drums.
Automatic Tongs
Drum tongs come in both semi-automatic and automatic units that can be used in the open topped and tight head steel drum styles. The drum tongs can even be connected several different ways to the lift truck. One way is to attach them underneath a fork-mounted hook. Another way is to attach them to a fork-mounted jib or a carriage mounted jib. Both the semi automatic and the automatic have a drum capacity of 210 liters. With the automatic, there is no need for the operator to ever leave the seat of the lift truck.
Rim Grip Handler
Whenever drums require storage with limited spacing accessible, the Rim Grip Drum Handler is the ideal choice in drum forklift accessories. This particular attachment would work for either the 210 L drums in addition to 120 L drums. The Rim Grip Handler operates by utilizing metal jaws to be able to hold the edge of the drum. It picks the drum up and puts it down without requiring any space between all the drums. The average model used in the industry is a zinc-plated handler, even if, this particular accessory comes available in stainless steel for the food and drink market.
