Drywall Lifter Roll for Drywall and Wallboard

The KRAFT TOOL DC171 is a single-piece rigid steel lifter designed to raise drywall and wallboard panels. Its weighted nose and balanced construction allow it to move smoothly across the jobsite. The tool accommodates all standard drywall thicknesses for professional installation work.

16 in Length with 3 in Maximum Lift

Measuring 16 inches long by 2-5/8 inches wide, this lifter provides a stable platform for panel handling. It lifts material up to 3 inches off the floor, giving enough clearance for positioning sheets onto walls or ceilings. The fixed dimensions limit use to tasks within this vertical range and footprint.

Rigid Steel Build with Weighted Nose

The all-steel frame delivers the rigidity needed to support heavy panels without flexing during transport. A weighted nose section keeps the tool grounded while the balanced design reduces operator fatigue when manoeuvring large sheets. No additional accessories or software are included with this unit.

Questions about this item

Will the 16 in rigid steel lifter handle the 3 in lift height needed for ceiling sheets while I keep using my existing T-square?

The lifter raises panels up to 3 in and its weighted nose balances the load so you can guide the sheet with a T-square in your other hand.

How do I confirm the weighted nose is balanced correctly before I load a full panel?

Set the empty lifter on a flat floor; it should rest level without tipping, and the nose should drop smoothly when you lift the handle.

Does the single-piece 16 in steel roll ship ready to use or do I need separate fasteners?

The box contains the one-piece rigid steel roll only; no bolts, pins or additional hardware are included or required.
