Product Overview
The EALITA 1000kg Hydraulic Drum Lifter and Rotator is a premium-grade galvanized steel forklift attachment engineered for precision drum handling operations that demand both lifting capacity and controlled rotational positioning. Combining a powerful hydraulic grab mechanism with 135-degree hydraulic rotation capability, this drum rotator attachment enables forklift operators to lift, transport, tilt, and precisely orient standard 205-litre drums from the driver's seat — without manual intervention, without secondary handling equipment, and without disrupting adjacent drums or surrounding inventory. Designed for recycling facilities, mining operations, chemical processing plants, waste management centers, oil and lubricant handling yards, and heavy industrial warehouses, this hydraulic drum rotator delivers a level of drum handling precision and versatility that no mechanical drum lifter can match.
The 135-degree hydraulic rotation capability is the defining operational advantage of this attachment. Unlike fixed-orientation drum lifters that can only lift and transport drums in a single upright position, the EALITA hydraulic rotator allows the operator to tilt the drum up to 135 degrees from vertical — enabling controlled pouring, emptying, and content transfer directly from the forklift cab without repositioning the forklift or manually tipping the drum. This rotational control is critical in recycling and waste processing operations where drum contents must be emptied into processing equipment, in chemical handling where precise pour control prevents spillage, and in mining applications where drum orientation affects material flow and containment.
One of the most operationally significant capabilities of this drum rotator is its ability to extract a single drum from a standard four-drum pallet configuration without disturbing the remaining three drums. The precision hydraulic grab mechanism engages the target drum with controlled, localized clamping force — allowing the operator to lift and remove one drum cleanly from a tightly packed pallet group, then replace it with equal precision after filling, emptying, or processing. This selective single-drum extraction capability eliminates the need to break down entire pallet configurations to access individual drums, dramatically reducing handling time and the risk of drum damage in high-density storage environments.
The hydraulic system is engineered for straightforward integration with any forklift equipped with a third and fourth hydraulic valve. Quick-connect couplings are factory-fitted to both hydraulic circuits, allowing the attachment to be connected and operational in minutes without specialist tools or hydraulic system modification. The system operates at a working pressure of 16 MPa with a hydraulic flow requirement of 60 LPM, parameters compatible with the auxiliary hydraulic circuits of the full range of standard counterbalance forklifts used in industrial operations. Two cylinder configurations are available — the F-DC-R2 with dual cylinders (202 kg) and the F-DC-GR2 with triple cylinders (226 kg) — to suit different operational requirements and forklift hydraulic capacity.
The galvanized surface finish provides long-term corrosion resistance across the full range of demanding operating environments encountered in recycling, mining, chemical handling, and outdoor industrial storage applications. The wide 874mm pocket centre spacing and 185 × 65mm fork pocket dimensions ensure compatibility with the large forklifts typically used in heavy industrial drum handling, while the 1,600mm wide attachment frame provides a stable, balanced platform for dual-drum-width operations and precise hydraulic grab engagement.
Whether you are emptying chemical drums into processing equipment at a recycling facility, extracting individual drums from dense pallet storage in a mining supply warehouse, managing controlled pour operations at a chemical processing plant, or handling heavy 205-litre drums across a large industrial yard, the EALITA 1000kg Hydraulic Drum Lifter and Rotator delivers the rotational precision, hydraulic grab reliability, and galvanized durability your operation demands — every drum, every pour, every shift.
