Offering the ability to pick up, rotate and empty contents of drums in a safe, controlled and risk free manor, our crane slung  drum rotators are the perfect solution for carrying out such drum manipulation tasks. Versatile in their use, this particular drum rotator can be used with both a forklift truck or an overhead crane.

With a high quality gear box connected to a crank handle for up to shoulder height rotation, the drum tipper will allow drums to be rotated through 360 degrees with minimal effort.

Designed to suit 210 litre steel drums, the drums are secured in place via two webbing and ratchet straps, thus ensuring the drums are safe and secure during rotation.

Like all our forklift attachments, the crane slung drum rotator will come fully tested and certified to comply with the latest Health & Safety Regulations.

Before any attachment is fitted to your machine, please check with the manufacturer as it may affect the trucks rated capacity and therefore a new capacity plate will be required to use the machine safely.
