Top Rim Clamp to Handle Your Rimmed 55-Gallon Plastic Drum

Top Rim Clamp for your rimmed 55-gallon plastic drum

The Top Rim Clamp grips the upper rim of your 55-gallon (208 liter) rimmed plastic drum to prevent it from slipping through the drum holder. The Top Rim Clamp can also be used with a 55-gallon rimmed fiber or steel drum. It bolts onto the MORcinch TM Drum Holder. Clamp it to the top rim of your drum, then secure the cinch chain around the drum as usual.

Bracket Assembly Required to Handle Your Rimless Plastic Drum

Bracket Assembly for your fiber drum or rimless plastic drum

For your plastic drum that lacks a top rim, the Bracket Assembly is necessary. Also recommended to more securely hold a fiber drum. It provides a brace at top and bottom of your drum to prevent it from slipping in the holder, and adjusts to handle a drum from 31" to 39" (79 to 99 cm) tall.
