Handling heavy drums in industrial settings requires reliable drum handling equipment to improve safety, reduce manual strain, and prevent spills. At AJ Products, we offer a comprehensive selection of drum lifting equipment, barrel lifting equipment, and drum lifters, designed to make lifting, tilting, and transporting barrels more efficient. Whether moving steel or plastic drums, our solutions enhance workplace safety while ensuring compliance with handling regulations. Explore our range of drum handling accessories for solutions that ensure safe, effective lifting and transportation.
For easy movement of heavy barrels, drum handling solutions such as a drum dolly provide a practical way to roll drums smoothly across the workspace. A steel-framed dolly with heavy-duty castors allows a single operator to move drums weighing up to 210 L efficiently. Certain models also feature a polyethylene spill tray, containing leaks while in transit. For better manoeuvrability, a drum trolley offers greater stability and ergonomic handling for frequent transport tasks.
For high-volume operations, drum lifting equipment, such as forklift drum clamps, ensures safe and secure lifting of plastic and steel drums. These clamps attach directly to forklift forks, automatically gripping the drum upon lifting and releasing it upon placement. This design allows forklift operators to handle barrels without manual intervention, reducing downtime and enhancing workplace efficiency. Secure drum storage is equally important, with drum pallets and spill protection available to prevent leaks and ensure compliance with safety regulations.
A drum lifter makes lifting, tilting, and controlled pouring of 210 L barrels easier and safer. These units clamp securely to the drum, allowing it to tilt up to 120° for precise dispensing. Designed for smooth movement, drum lifters feature a pedal-operated quick-lift function and robust castors for easy transport. To ensure safe liquid handling, additional containment solutions such as IBC sumps and plastic drums can help optimise storage and minimise risks.
