Drum & Barrel Rollover Cradle

Product Code: DCR02

This Rollover Cradle is designed to assist operators to turn and place drums and barrels in a horizontal rack. A drum is loaded onto the footplate of the cradle using either an STS Drum Truck or drum lifter in the vertical orientation. The cradle allows users to transfer the drum from vertical to horizontal easily and safely with a minimum amount of effort, a stacker truck or forklift can then lift the drum out of the cradle and load it onto racking horizontally.

In the past people would push drums over onto their side in an uncontrolled manner risking injury; this was not a safe practice and as such units such as the Drum Rollover Cradle were developed. The cradles allow compliance with modern day manual handling guidelines. This unit is manufactured in 304-grade stainless steel and we can offer an ATEX / spark proof model if required.
