Vestil Overhead Drum Lifter (DRUM)

Hoist Mounted Drum Lifters for Vertical Steel, Plastic, and Fiber Drum Handling Hoist mounted drum lifters provide a secure way to raise and transport 30 and 55 gallon drums with an overhead crane, hoist, or similar lifting device. Designed for straight vertical lifting, this non-tilting drum handler is well suited for warehouses, manufacturing plants, chemical storage areas, maintenance departments, and material handling operations that need controlled drum movement without rotation or dumping. Secure Drum Support The steel saddle accommodates steel, plastic, and fiber drums up to 24-5/8 inches in diameter.

A ratchet strap holds the drum securely in place during lifting, helping improve load control and operator confidence when moving drums between work areas, storage locations, or processing stations. Heavy-Duty Handling Design With a 1,000 lb. uniform capacity, the lifter is built for demanding industrial use.

Durable steel construction and a yellow baked-in powder coat finish provide long-lasting toughness and visibility in busy facilities.

FAQ about this model

What is the weight capacity of this drum lifter?

The Vestil DRUM-LUG overhead drum lifter has a rated capacity of 1000 lb. Check your loaded drum's total weight, including contents and the drum itself, before use to confirm it falls within this limit.

How is this drum lifter operated?

It is an overhead lifter, meaning it attaches to a crane, hoist, or other overhead lifting device rather than operating on its own power. The specifications do not list a separate motor or power requirement, so it relies entirely on the overhead equipment it is rigged to.

Where is this product made?

The DRUM-LUG overhead drum lifter is made in the USA by Vestil Manufacturing. No additional country-of-origin details beyond this are listed in the specifications.

What warranty comes with this drum lifter?

It carries a 1-year limited warranty from Vestil. Specific terms and coverage details of the limited warranty are not included in the product data, so confirm exact conditions before purchase if that matters for your use case.

How many models of this drum lifter are available?

There is one available model, the DRUM-LUG, priced at $534.96. It is rated for 1000 lb capacity, and no other configurations or capacity options are listed for this product line.

Is this drum lifter a good fit for heavier drums?

It depends on your drum's loaded weight. The DRUM-LUG is rated for 1000 lb capacity, so any drum plus its contents exceeding that limit would not be a suitable match for this specific lifter.
