Jerrican Clamp

Jerrican Clamp – Lift Easy

What Is a Jerrican Clamp?

A jerrican clamp — also known as a horizontal drum lifting clamp, oil drum clamp, drum rim clamp, or horizontal drum handler — is a specialised lifting attachment designed to grip the rim of an oil drum or industrial drum and lift, handle, and transport it while keeping the drum in a horizontal (lying on its side) position. This horizontal orientation is critical for sealed drums containing liquid contents — preventing spillage, maintaining seal integrity, and allowing drums to be positioned and stacked on their sides in storage and transport configurations.

The Lift Easy Jerrican Clamp (Model LEJC) is a GS and CE certified horizontal drum lifting clamp with a 600 kg load capacity, 0–30 mm adjustable jaw opening, and a compact 5 kg net weight. Engineered with an ideal, compact design from a mechanics point of view, the LEJC is the trusted horizontal drum lifting clamp for oil & gas facilities, chemical plants, warehouses, and industrial operations across Dubai, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait.

Description

The Lift Easy Jerrican Clamp LEJC is a GS and CE certified heavy-duty horizontal drum lifting clamp purpose-built for the lifting, handling, and transporting of oil drums and industrial drums that must remain in a horizontal position throughout the operation. Constructed from high-strength steel with a durable blue powder-coated finish, the LEJC is mechanically designed to be compact, lightweight, and easy to use — making it one of the most practical and operator-friendly jerrican clamps available to drum handling professionals across Dubai, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait.

The adjustable jaw opening of 0–30 mm allows the LEJC jerrican clamp to grip a wide range of standard oil drum and industrial drum rim thicknesses — accommodating the most common drum types used across oil & gas facilities, chemical plants, food & beverage factories, and warehouse operations in the GCC. The jaw mechanism engages securely on the drum rim during the lift, maintaining a positive grip throughout the horizontal lifting and transport operation without requiring additional securing hardware or manual tightening by the operator.

With a 600 kg load capacity and a 5 kg net weight, the Lift Easy LEJC jerrican clamp delivers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio that makes it one of the lightest and most portable horizontal drum lifting clamps available at this capacity level in the GCC market. A single operator can carry, position, and deploy the LEJC quickly and safely — dramatically reducing drum handling time in busy warehouse, filling station, and industrial drum management environments across Dubai, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait.

The LEJC jerrican clamp connects to any standard overhead lifting device — including cranes, chain blocks, lever blocks, and electric chain hoists — via its overhead suspension hook, making it a versatile addition to any GCC facility’s drum handling and material handling equipment inventory. As a trusted jerrican clamp supplier, distributor, and manufacturer in Dubai, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait, Lift Easy delivers GS and CE certified drum lifting clamps backed by full technical support, product certification, and regional after-sales service.
