Forklift Drum Rotator

As a professional manufacturer of industrial attachments, we know that manually pouring heavy liquids is both dangerous and slow. Our HXK Series Forklift Drum Rotator is the perfect solution to turn your standard forklift into a high-performance drum handling machine.

Designed for seamless integration, these forklift carriers allow you to lift, move, and tilt loaded drums without ever leaving the driver’s seat.


🛠️ Why Use the HXK Forklift Drum Rotator?

  • Effortless Conversion: These attachments quickly transform your existing fork truck into a specialized drum handler.

  • Safe Remote Operation: Drivers can control the drum’s rollover using a 10-inch pull-chain loop from the comfort of the forklift seat.

  • 360° Precision Pouring: The HXK285 models offer manual 360° rotation, allowing for precise pouring and mixing at any angle.

  • High Gear Ratio Control: Featuring a 30:1 ratio, the rotation is smooth and easy to manage, even when the drum is fully loaded.

  • Universal Compatibility: These units are designed for standard 55-gallon (210 liters) steel drums and 200L PE plastic drums.

Are these attachments compatible with my existing forklift model?

Our drum lifters are designed for universal forklift compatibility. They slide easily onto standard forks and are secured using heavy-duty safety chains or T-bolts. Whether you use a reach truck, a counterbalance forklift, or a telehandler, our attachments integrate seamlessly without the need for hydraulic or electrical modifications。

What is the difference between Eagle Grip and waist-clamping drum lifters?

The Eagle Grip (anchor-type) secures the drum by its top rim (chime), using the load’s weight to lock it in place—ideal for heavy liquids and hazardous materials. Waist-clamping lifters grip the drum’s middle using curved arms, which is perfect for lighter loads or when you need to rotate and pour contents.

Can these grabbers handle both steel and plastic drums without damage?

Our Eagle Grip clamping lifters are excellent for both steel and plastic drums as they only touch the reinforced rim. For waist-clamping models, we offer specialized rubber-lined arms to provide a secure grip.
