Streamline Drum Handling in Singapore's Industries with Morse 86 Drum Lifter

UBI, Singapore - Sept. 11, 2025 - PRLog -- What is the Morse 86 Drum Lifter?

The Morse 86 is a drum lifting tool engineered for lifting 55-gallon (208L) drums vertically using an overhead hoist, crane, or forklift. Its automatic grip mechanism allows the lifter to securely latch onto the top rim of the drum without manual handling, making it ideal for lifting drums out of confined spaces like pallets or containment basins.

Key Features & Advantages

1. Automatic Grip Mechanism

Engages and releases drums without the need for manual intervention—improving operator safety and efficiency.

2. Universal Compatibility

Lifts most closed steel, plastic, or fiber drums with a strong top rim—common in Singapore's petrochemical and manufacturing sectors.

3. Compact and Durable Design

Constructed from robust steel and engineered for long-term industrial use, even in humid, corrosive marine environments.

4. Single Operator Use

Designed to allow one-person operation, saving labor and reducing exposure to heavy lifting-related injuries.
