Vertical drum lifter for 55-gal metal drums

The DAYTON 21VG37 is a yellow steel lifting hook designed to hoist vertical metal drums up to 55 gallons. It fits drum diameters between 22 1/4 in and 22 3/4 in and a maximum drum height of 36 in. Rated for 800 lb, it attaches at the drum body and uses manual tilt control for dispensing. Overall length is 8 in.

Suited for facilities moving standard 55-gal metal

This lifter serves operations that need to lift and pour from upright metal drums within the specified diameter and height range. It does not accommodate drums outside the 22 1/4–22 3/4 in diameter window or taller than 36 in. Buyers needing powered tilt, horizontal drum handling, or compatibility with plastic or fibre drums should look elsewhere.

Manual tilt gives operator control during

Under continuous use the steel hook maintains its 800 lb capacity without deformation. The manual tilt mechanism lets the operator regulate flow rate throughout a full dispense cycle rather than relying on a spring-return or powered assist that could fatigue. The fixed 8 in reach keeps the load close to the hoist, reducing swing during extended lifts.
