Hazardous Materials
Overview
Drum handling requires precision grip, load stability, and operator confidence — especially where spills, tipping, and uncontrolled rotation create serious safety and compliance risks.
Loyo drum clamps and drum lifters deliver consistent clamping force, smooth hydraulic rotation, and compatibility with standard steel and plastic 205L drums.
Common Challenges
Operational pain points Loyo attachments are engineered to address in this industry.
01
Drum Stability
Prevent rolling and tipping during transport, racking, and pallet loading in narrow aisles.
02
Controlled Rotation
Pour and empty drums safely with rotators rated for fluid shift and dynamic load conditions.
03
Corrosive Environments
Component selection and surface treatment for chemical exposure zones and wash-down areas.
04
Tight Aisle Operations
Side shifters and positioning attachments improve placement accuracy in confined drum storage layouts.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How do drum clamps prevent drum slipping?
Drum clamps use curved gripping pads and adjustable clamp force to conform to drum curvature and maintain friction under acceleration and braking.
Can one attachment handle steel and plastic drums?
Yes, with pad material and pressure settings matched to drum type. Share your drum specification for the correct configuration.
Is rotation safe for partially filled drums?
Rotators must be rated for fluid shift. Loyo specifies rotation speed limits and hydraulic damping based on drum fill level and weight.
Do you supply attachments for hazardous area operations?
We engineer for industrial chemical environments. Discuss site classification and material compatibility with our technical team.
