Drum Upender for 55 gal Steel Drums
This manual drum upender handles a single 55 gallon steel drum with a 400 lb load capacity. The unit measures 40 in overall length, 6 in width, and 7 in height. It features steel construction with a powder-coated yellow finish for durability.
Suited for Single Drum Handling
Workers who need to bring one drum to an upright position will find this tool effective. It is not suited for operations requiring powered rotation or the handling of multiple drums simultaneously. Buyers needing a different drum capacity or a rotation angle other than 0 degrees should look elsewhere.
400 lb Load Capacity Decides Fit
The 400 lb load capacity is the critical specification that determines if this upender matches the weight of your filled drums. Verify the gross weight of your 55 gal drums against this limit before purchasing. The steel frame and powder coating support this rated capacity.
