Sinolift has officially launched the new DTF450H1 and DTF450H2 Foot-Operated Hydraulic Drum Trucks, further expanding the company's product range in professional material handling equipment. The series is purpose-built to address a common industry challenge: handling drums positioned at the corners of pallets. Thanks to an optimized structural design, both models allow smooth diagonal access to drums, making operation easier even in confined or complex workspaces.
Built with durable materials and a reliable hydraulic system, the DTF450H1 and DTF450H2 deliver stable performance across a wide range of industrial applications, combining safe operation with long-lasting efficiency — making them well suited for warehousing, chemical processing, food manufacturing, and other sectors where drum handling is a daily task.
Designed to handle drums positioned at pallet corners, enabling smooth and flexible movement from diagonal directions.
Ensures a firm and secure grip on drums, preventing slipping or accidental drops during operation.
Non-slip, wear-resistant, and low-noise, providing smooth and effortless mobility across various surfaces.
Suitable for grabbing and releasing drums on pallets and platform scales, enhancing overall operational flexibility.
