The Rim Grip Drum Handler is the ideal choice when removing or loading drums in confined areas where drums are tightly packed or touching. The unique jaw mechanism utilises the drums weight to lock the drum in place ensuring the load cannot come loose even under strenuous use and rough terrain. Our rim grip head consists of bright zinc plated steel parts to ensure longevity of life. The unit is simple and easy to use and is the perfect choice for drum handling about the drum rim/lip.
Rim Grip Drum Handlers offer fast and safe movement of drums via hardened steel jaws that grip the drum chimb (rim), allowing the drums to be picked up/set down with minimal gap between them. Ideal for stuffing/de-stuffing containers, suitable for use also on rough terrain. May be used for use with 120 or 210 litre Steel Drums and “L”/”XL” Plastic drums. A Spark Proof model is available for Zone 1 conditions. Not for use with empty drums.
