Drum lifting hooks are high-strength for heavy loads, extreme temperatures, and abrasive environments that would damage or destroy lifting slings. Also known as barrel hooks, they have curved beveled ends that fit under drum chimes and create a tight grip between the drum and hooks when lifted. Vertical drum lifting hooks attach to the tops of drums, making them ideal for situations where drums are placed tightly together. Horizontal drum lifting hooks attach to the top and bottom chimes to move drums on their side. Typical uses for drum lifting hooks include machine shops, construction sites, foundries, and shipping yards. WLL work load limit 1,100 pounds.
