We assemble our hydraulic jacks by hand in our UK factory to ensure that each hydraulic system is clean and reliable. During the manufacturing process, our team of engineers tests and inspects every pump to make sure they’re working smoothly and effectively.
To make sure this product performs well in all conditions, we use high-quality elasticated rubber wheels. We also use rubber-sealed (RS) precision bearings: these offer premium wheel performance in harsh environments. To get the most out of this unit we recommend using it on smooth surfaces.
As with our other drum depalletisers, you can use the Counterbalance Drum Lifting Trolleys with a wide variety of drum types and sizes, which is useful if you handle different types of drum on a daily basis.

Explosive or potentially explosive atmospheres require operators to use zoned ATEX equipment. We provide fully-certified drum movers for use in these hazardous areas.
The DTP08-Ex Counterbalance Drum Lifting Trolley is suitable for use in ATEX classified spaces: Zone 1, 2, 21 and 22. Electrical continuity - whereby a path to ground is always present – is of key importance when manufacturing ATEX-compliant drum handling equipment. All our ATEX drum lifters are supplied with an EU Declaration of Conformity.
In the UK we can supply certain equipment on a sale-or-return basis, meaning you can use a unit on-site for seven days with no obligation to buy it once the trial period is up. Find out more here.
