Features

Drawing on decades of industry experience, we have continuously refined our products to incorporate superior features.

Handles a wide variety of drums

This unit features a fully adjustable stainless-steel drum band, designed to accommodate steel, plastic, or fibre drums ranging from 50 to 220 litres. The band can be easily adjusted to fit the drum size and secured with a ratchet and polyester strap. For companies handling only 200- to 220-litre drums, we also offer a fixed over-centre clamp band option. Every drum tipper attachment is equipped with a premium self-locking rotational gearbox, ensuring smooth, controlled rotation without the risk of unintended movement.
