Drum Rollers
Drum rollers are ideal for mixing both liquid and solid drum content, at either fixed or variable speeds, without opening the drum. They are designed to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals and minimise the need for additional clean up associated with immersion mixers. These drum rollers are used for grinding, smoothening & blending batches of powder, paint, oil, urethane resin, glue, dye and flavours inside a sealed drum. They can roll any standard 55-gallon metal drum. The dry load capacity of these drum rollers is lesser than the liquid load capacity as the former exerts greater stress on the drum rotator than the fluid motion of the latter.
Raptor Supplies offers a wide range of these drum rollers from Morse Manufacturing Company, Inc., a leading manufacturer of drum handling equipment.
Morse 201 Series portable drum rollers can be easily moved using the polyolefin wheels and swivel casters. The built-in tipping bar on these units is further integrated with a top rim hook and a kickstand to stabilise the roller in both upright and rolling positions. They also feature 4 drive and 4 idler wheels that can handle liquid and dry loads up to 500 lb & 300 lb, respectively. Selected models further come equipped with broad belts, instead of wheels, for mixing content inside the fibre drums without damaging the fibre sidewall.
Morse Drum 456 Series Hydra-Lift drum rollers use a built-in hydraulic system to lift drums and place it on the roller for quick & easy mixing of drum content. The brand's CE-certified Hydra-Lift drum rollers (model number ending with -CE) are designed in accordance with European conformity and can be used in countries that use a 50Hz power supply.
Stationary drum rollers are available in 2 variants: single-stationary rollers that handle only 1 drum at once and double-stationary drum rollers that can roll two drums, simultaneously.
To rapidly increase the rolling speed, Morse Drum idler attachment is an ideal choice because of their capacity to roll 1 - 5 gallon (4 to 20 litres) cylindrical cans at approximately double the speed, within the same 55-gallon drum settings. It can be easily attached to drum rollers using 4 bolts.
The brand's POLY drum roller options (stationary, portable and Hydra-Lift) feature extra wheels for supporting less rigid plastic drums and an end stop to prevent the plastic drum from rolling off. These attachments can be installed either at the job site prior to purchase or afterwards as a field install kit.
