BISupply Vertical Barrel Lifter Gallon Review

EASILY MOVE FULL BARRELS: The BISupply | Drum Lifter moves and handles 30 to 55 gallon open or closed head barrels (even 16 gallon with lid) that are steel, plastic (with metal band that clamps the top of the barrel), or fiber type drums with a rim or lip and at least 3/16-inch chime; Forklift overhead hoist or hook required, not included. NO MORE SPILLS: Save your back, reduce spills, and avoid injury with the 2-point contact arms that allow for fast and gentle loading into overpacks and keep drums upright while lifting and moving. BUILT TO LAST: 1,000-pound / 0.5 Ton (454kg) maximum capacity; Lifter constructed from carbon steel with 0.4-inch (1cm) thick lifter loop and 2 durable arms for maximum strength and longevity that holds up to the heaviest industrial applications. VARIOUS APPLICATIONS: Move barrels full of fuel, kero, corn, and more; Use with a tractor to lift and unload items off a trailer or use a forklift to move items from a pick-up truck bed to shop floor. EASY TO USE: The claw weldments catch under the rim of your barrel to secure it while the weight of the barrel holds the claw in place; Check the hook position placement before lifting the drum; We recommend this as a 2-person job or manually placing the claws yourself, but with some practice and much care, the lift can be attached to the barrel without leaving the tractor or forklift seat.
